MCM E40 Electric Forklift (CPD40D)

SILENT POWER, CLEAN ENERGY, BUILT FOR AFRICA

The MCM E40 Electric Forklift is a 4-tonne class lithium-powered counterbalance forklift built for heavy industrial work — warehousing, port handling, manufacturing, and any operation that demands strong daily lift performance without diesel noise, exhaust, or fuel cost. Driven by a 76.8 V / 350 Ah lithium battery delivering 6–8 operating hours per charge, paired with a 16.6 kW AC traction motor and a 13 kW lift motor on AC/ZAPI control, the E40 lifts up to 4 000 kg at a 500 mm load centre, travels at 20 km/h loaded or unloaded, and clears full lift in seconds. A 3-stage 4.5 m mast is included as standard.
