Tips For Renting The Right Forklift For Next Project

With so many models adapting to current needs and technology, it’s easy to get overwhelmed when choosing between electric, diesel, and hybrid-engine equipment. However, looking at the engine’s capabilities, and some of its use cases, is a great place to start.

Diesel Engines: Diesel engines are classic construction vehicle engines. The byproduct of diesel machines is CO2. However, stringent environmental standards and the industry’s adoption of electric vehicle (EV) construction equipment have pushed manufacturers to design lower-emissions diesel equipment.

Electric Engines: Electric heavy machinery runs on lithium-ion batteries and an electric motor. Electric vehicles are popular choices for projects that require low noise, vibrations, and no pollution. Due to these features, electric construction vehicles are a common choice for indoor projects. However, many brands offer electric models intended for rugged, outdoor use, which are comparable to diesel models.
