We took delivery of our brand new multi directional forklift today, supplied by JD forklifts, the process was seamless from beginning to delivery which included a very detailed handover from Ross & Michael. I can't recommend this company enough and look forward to building our fleet with JD as our company expands.

Description

Hangcha XC318 Premium 3-Wheel Electric Lithium Forklift

The Hangcha XC318 Premium 3-Wheel Electric Lithium Forklift combines compact dimensions, exceptional manoeuvrability, and advanced lithium-ion technology to deliver outstanding performance in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and logistics operations. With a 1,800kg lifting capacity, this premium specification is equipped with a CATL 228Ah lithium battery and Curtis AC controller, providing smooth, responsive operation, high efficiency, and maintenance-free performance.

This model is fitted with a 4.8m Full Free Lift Triplex Mast, making it ideal for working in containers, trailers, and low-clearance environments while still achieving an excellent lift height. Combined with 1070mm forks and an integrated side shift, the XC318 allows operators to position loads accurately, improving efficiency and reducing handling times. The optimised wide-view mast design further enhances forward visibility for safer operation.

Powered by Hangcha's dedicated lithium-ion system, developed in partnership with CATL, the XC318 benefits from opportunity charging, zero battery maintenance, and intelligent battery management for maximum uptime. The external charging connection allows the truck to be charged quickly and conveniently without removing the battery, making it ideal for multi-shift operations.

Operator comfort is at the heart of the XC Series. The spacious ergonomic operator compartment, low centre of gravity, adjustable steering column, suspended seat, and intuitive LED instrument display help reduce fatigue during long working days. The three-wheel design delivers an exceptionally tight turning radius, allowing the truck to work efficiently in narrow aisles and confined spaces.

For enhanced safety and practicality, this specification includes a top cover, Road Lights package, regenerative braking, buffered fork lowering, and Hangcha's advanced AC drive system for smooth, precise control. The truck also features a fully sealed electrical system and intelligent protection functions to maximise reliability in demanding industrial environments.

Finished in Hangcha's distinctive green and backed by a 2-year truck warranty and 5-year lithium battery warranty, the Hangcha XC318 Premium 3-Wheel Electric Forklift is a compact, highly manoeuvrable, and energy-efficient solution for businesses looking to maximise productivity while reducing operating costs.
