MCM E50 Electric Forklift — Key Features & Specifications

SILENT POWER, CLEAN ENERGY, BUILT FOR AFRICA

The MCM E50 Electric Forklift 🔋 Heavy-Duty. Lithium-Powered. 5-Ton Performance.

The MCM E50 delivers 5-ton (5,000 kg) lifting strength — taking on container yards, port operations, and heavy industrial work that diesel forklifts have traditionally owned, with zero emissions and a quiet, fast-charging lithium drivetrain.

With an 80 V / 410 Ah MEGMEET lithium-ion battery system, a 23 kW AC drive motor, and an 18 kW pump motor, the E50 reaches 21.6 km/h travel speed and lifts 490 mm/s under load. Dual front tyres for stability under heavy loads, regenerative braking, and hydraulic power steering — built for the toughest 5-ton work in the country.
