Jungheinrich is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of warehouse products. The brand, supported by the Mitsubishi Logisnext Americas Inc. network, is known for reliability, superior comfort and energy-efficiency. Jungheinrich continues this tradition of high standards with its latest release, the EFG 220.

The EFG 220 exceeds all performance expectations and has earned the nickname “The Big Deal on Three Wheels.” Here is everything you need to know about the EFG 220.

2 Shifts, 1 Charge Guarantee

The EFG 220 offers one of the lowest energy consumptions in the industry. The unique design of the Jungheinrich EFG 220 enables this forklift to exceed traditional run times. It even comes with a 2 shifts on 1 charge guarantee, able to run for 16 hours without needing to be recharged.

 

Low Total Cost of Ownership

The EFG 220 is known for its low maintenance requirements and an overall low total cost of ownership.

Major components have reduced maintenance requirements, which results in fewer ongoing maintenance costs for the life of the forklift. In fact, this is a common benefit associated with electric forklifts.

The EFG 220 has a planned maintenance interval of 1,000 hours. By comparison, similar trucks on the market today require PM intervals at every 250 or 500 hours.
