RX 70 Hybrid with Blue-Q
STILL GmbH
Design: TEAMS Design GmbH
The RX 70 Hybrid is the first mass-production diesel forklift that works on the principle of energy recovery and electric power transmission. A combination of two energy storage systems makes the drive of the RX 70 Hybrid both powerful and economical. Energy potential is released through the recovery of braking energy and the efficient use of the combustion motor, saving an additional 20 % of fuel. Low motor rotation speeds keep noise emissions to a minimum, while user-friendly design enables safe and efficient handling.
Award winner 2012 in the category »Produkt«
»The RX 70 is the world‘s first serially produced hybrid forklift. The truck uses energy that is recovered during braking, and applies it again when accelerating. This significantly reduces fuel consumption. Lower energy consumption also means lower CO2 emissions. But it’s not only the efficiency and environmental responsibility that make this product worth the money – we were also impressed by its user-friendly design. My overall rating: Totally innovative.«
