After launching the next generation of electric powered forklift trucks, the VT and the VF, Yale has added to the range with the introduction of the VG cushion tyre series offering capacities from 2,200kg to 3,500 kg.

Productivity ***** Choice of HiP or eLo setting offers users the option of high productivity and low energy consumption

Performance ***** Four performance modes allow operators to tailor the truck’s performance to specific applications within the two productivity settings

Features ***** Designed with ergonomics in mind features include:




  • Minimised whole body vibrations


  • Accutouch mini lever module featuring a cushioned arm and palm rest with fingertip control of levers helping to reduce repetitive strain injuries (RSI)


  • Maximised dashboard space for operator convenience and 2 litre capacity dashboard providing space for clipboards, pens, mobile phones and drinks with an optional 12V power socket


  • Heads up display offers quick, at a glance updates, freeing up the driver’s field of vision for more productive handling


  • Easy operator access with three point entry and anti-slip steel mesh step plate


  • The ‘YaleStop’ automatic park brake increases productivity dramatically where the driver is frequently moving on and off the truck and eliminates the need for alarms and buzzers alerting operators that the handbrake has not been set



Lifetime operating costs ***** Increased productivity and uptime, combined with reduced maintenance costs delivers reduced lifetime operating costs

Daniel Heap, Electric Truck Senior Product Development Manager for NMHG, says the VG series is part of the next generation of forklift trucks. It has been through the most extensive product development and reliability growth testing ever undertaken by the company. He says: “We have worked exhaustively to develop a range of forklift trucks that meet all the demands of our customers’ businesses as well as their operators.”
