Electrified Forklifts with Crossover-Technology
16th January 2025
This is the motto under which industrial truck specialist Clark is presenting its new Crossover series for the first time at LogiMAT 2025 in Stuttgart in hall 10, stand 10B78. These are a perfect combination of the proven features of an IC engine-powered forklift truck and environmentally friendly electric drives – without compromising on performance. In addition to the new COP2 order picking truck, other highlights include the new STE/SE three- and four-wheel forklift trucks with load capacities of 1.6 to 2 tonnes, which complement the S-Series Electric with additional models.
The right crossover model for every application
From 11 to 13 March 2025, visitors to the trade fair will be able to take a look at the two new L25-35XE and S25-35XE crossover series with load capacities of 2.5 to 3.5 tonnes for the first time. The crossover electric forklift trucks are the next logical step for Clark in its endeavours to further electrify the counterbalance truck product range and significantly increase performance. To this end, Clark has combined the advantages of electric forklift trucks with the versatility and robustness of traditional IC engine-powered forklift trucks, setting new standards in material handling.
The Crossover series has proven itself especially in demanding environments and intensive applications. This proves that electric forklift trucks can also cope with intensive use and can therefore replace combustion engines. With their advanced lithium-ion battery technology, the Crossover electric forklift trucks achieve long operating times with short charging times. This significantly increases efficiency in warehouses and production facilities. Another special feature: Clark is launching the new Crossover series with a product name for the first time in a long time. For example, the L25-35XE is being marketed under the name ‘Raider’ and the S25-35XE under the name ‘Renegade’.
The Raider series (L25-35XE) opens the door to the crossover segment. It offers operators an environmentally friendly, solid and reliable alternative to forklift trucks with combustion engines. With excellent all-round visibility, predictable handling and proven Clark masts, the Raider range is cost effective and built to last.
The Renegade range (S25-35XE) is designed for operators who want the benefits of the Clark S-Series – Smart. Strong. Safe. – not want to do without. Built on the proven chassis of the S-Series IC engine-powered forklifts, the models, like the S-Series Electric, have extensive features and set new standards in terms of efficiency, safety and comfort. These powerful and very quiet electric forklift trucks combine modern technology with an emission-free, environmentally friendly and extremely effective drive. Like all S-Series Electric trucks, they are equipped with an impressive range of safety functions and customisable options, offering maximum flexibility for a wide variety of applications.
‘We are delighted to launch the Raider and Renegade crossover electric forklift truck ranges, which not only significantly increase efficiency, but also ensure environmentally friendly and sustainable material flow,’ explains Thomas Bach, R&D Director at Clark Europe. ‘The Raider and Renegade crossover electric forklift trucks are the perfect solution for companies that want to remain competitive in an ever-changing logistics world.’
STE/SE three- and four-wheel electric forklifts for the highest demands
Another highlight at the Clark stand will be the 48-volt electric three- and four-wheel forklifts from the STE16-20 and SE16-20 series with a load capacity of 1.6 to 2.0 tonnes. These are available with lead-acid or lithium-ion batteries and, like their 80-volt counterparts, are part of the S-Series Electric. Here, too, the operator has the option of changing the vehicle’s energy source without any major additional effort (plug & play) if the application requirements change. Only the software needs to be adapted accordingly. The vehicles can therefore be operated with both the classic lead-acid battery and the Clark lithium-ion battery. With this smart battery solution, the electric forklift trucks can be adapted to almost any application scenario.
With the new environmentally friendly Clark electric forklift truck series, which are designed for a wide range of applications, Clark fulfils the desire of many operators to make their intralogistics more sustainable and climate-neutral. With numerous ergonomic improvements and modern safety functions, they ensure maximum efficiency with a low total cost of ownership.
New order picker for the second shelf level
Clark is also presenting sustainable product innovations in the warehouse technology sector: For example, Clark is presenting a new order picker with Li-Ion technology. With a maximum lifting height of 6.30 metres, the COP2 is designed for order picking tasks on the second shelf level. The compact vertical order picker is equipped with a driver’s platform that can be raised to 4.80 m and self-supporting forks, so that the operator can pick directly onto the pallet with the platform raised. The COP2 has been designed to be extremely stable so that it remains stable even at maximum lifting height.
