The E80-120XN 4-wheel electric forklift is a four-wheel electric counterbalance forklift series designed for demanding indoor material handling. Part of HYSTER’s E80XN to E120XN lineup, it features load capacities spanning 8–12 tons, making it suitable for heavy-duty logistics and warehouse operations. With a 16–20 km/h maximum speed and 0.3 m/s lift speed, it balances productivity and precision in confined spaces. The 7,217 kg self-weight ensures stability during high-capacity lifts.

What distinguishes the E80-120XN from other forklift models?
This series combines four-wheel electric propulsion with heavy-duty load capacity, targeting industrial-scale tasks where diesel alternatives would cause emissions issues. Its modular design allows configuration for 8–12 ton loads without compromising maneuverability.

Unlike standard electric forklifts limited to 5-ton capacities, the E80-120XN uses reinforced mast structures and dual AC motors. The solid rubber tires (specified in both sources) prevent punctures in environments with metal debris—common in manufacturing plants. Why opt for such heavy electric machinery? Facilities transitioning to zero-emission operations while maintaining high throughput require this hybrid solution. A 12-ton model can handle steel coil transport as effectively as diesel counterparts but with 40% lower energy costs. Pro Tip: Always verify ceiling heights—the mast’s triple-stage design adds 15% height compared to standard units.
What technical specifications define its performance?
Key metrics include 7217 kg self-weight and 20 km/h travel speed, supported by regenerative braking for energy recovery during deceleration.

Parameter | E80XN | E120XN |
---|---|---|
Load Capacity | 8 tons | 12 tons |
Lift Speed | 0.3 m/s | 0.28 m/s |
Battery Voltage | 80V | 96V |
The speed variation between models (16 vs. 20 km/h in sources) likely reflects load-specific optimizations—heavier configurations prioritize torque over velocity. For example, a 12-ton unit moving machinery parts across a 200m warehouse floor completes round trips 18% faster than equivalent internal combustion units, despite the lower top speed. Remember, battery capacity scales with voltage: 96V systems in upper models require specialized lithium packs like Redway’s 48V 400Ah/420Ah Forklift Lithium Battery derivatives.
