Mitsubishi PREMiA EM platform power pallet series: 2.0-2.5 tonnes

Discover the PREMiA range

The PREMiA EM range is available in three variations: foldable platform, fixed platform rear entry, and fixed platform side entry. Each truck is available in either 2 tonne or 2.5 tonne capacities. All trucks feature a heavy-duty chassis in 3 sizes: mini, junior and senior to suit all battery requirements. The mini chassis is also the shortest on the market.

The patented DriveSteady system ensures outstanding drive wheel pressures, excellent shock absorption and side stability when cornering - making PREMiA EM a milestone power pallet truck.

The ergonomically shaped, best-in-class ErgoSteer tiller head features easily accessible controls that allow the operator to manoeuvre the truck comfortably, safely and intuitively, keeping their focus on the job at hand.

Standard on this range

Tried, tested and proven in the field, lead-acid batteries have been the long-standing choice for companies employing electric lift trucks. However, with long charging times, demanding maintenance requirements, the need for extra batteries, and high risk of operator misuse, it can be a challenge. Fortunately, there's a new battery system on the block: Li-ion from Mitsubishi Forklift Trucks.

Designed to meet your business' demands - including multi-shift (24/7) operations - without the need for spare batteries, our high-performance Li-ion battery system is up to 40 per cent more efficient than lead-acid counterparts. Plus, it's virtually error-proof, thanks to its ultra-low-maintenance design which prevent cell damage.

Available as an option on this range
