When you’re hunting for an electric forklift that can really pull its weight, nothing’s more frustrating than machines conking out mid‑shift or demanding constant maintenance. You need an electric forklift that delivers steady power, handles heavy loads, and maneuvers through tight aisles without hiccups. The EKKO EK40T‑Li Lithium Powered Forklift solves those headaches with its 80 V/230 Ah lithium battery and AC drive motor, so you can push through long workdays without worrying about downtime. It boasts an 8,000 lb forklift capacity and a towering 185" lift height, making it a top pick for distribution centers, warehouses, and any material‑handling demands you throw at it. And thanks to solid pneumatic tires and a robust steel frame welded robotically, this Ekko forklift stands up to impact and keeps rolling, even under the toughest conditions.
Beyond raw power, many operators struggle with slow, clunky controls that drain productivity. That’s why the EK40T‑Li features an intuitive Inmotion Controller, delivering smooth, responsive hydraulics every time you shift, lift, or tilt. With Cascade® side shift and pre‑plumbed Shimadzu® 4‑way valve, you’ll enjoy precise load positioning without fumbling for attachments. The tight 45.2" overall width and 62.9" wheelbase let you navigate narrow aisles with ease, while the 42" forks and 38–43.7" free‑lift height give you the reach you need to stack pallets high. Plus, an industry‑leading 3 Year Limited Warranty backs your investment, so you’ve got peace of mind as well as peak performance.
If you’ve ever faced surprise downtime, battery swaps in the middle of the day, or flimsy chassis that buckle under weight, you’ll appreciate the EK40T‑Li’s build quality. Its steel construction and robotic welding create a rock‑solid frame that laughs off bumps and impacts. And because it’s fully electric, you’re cutting emissions, slashing fuel costs, and simplifying maintenance—no more oil changes or engine tune‑ups. Whether you’re upgrading your fleet or adding your first electric model, this 8,000 lb forklift with lithium power checks every box for efficiency, reliability, and ease of use.
