Frequently asked questions
How much does a Chinese diesel forklift cost?
Prices aren't shown on machines-direct: each configuration is quoted by the brand's accredited rep, on direct factory purchase, on the collective's negotiated terms. Configure the model (capacity, mast, tyres), send your request, and get your best price with no middleman — plus the 12 extra months of warranty.
Diesel or electric forklift?
Diesel excels outdoors, on high capacities (3 t and up), long shifts and rough floors; electric wins indoors (zero emissions, quiet). Many operations combine both. Compare both categories on the site before deciding.
Which engines power these forklifts?
Proven industrial diesel engines — notably Xinchai — with the emissions rating shown on each sheet exactly as supplied by the brand (Euro V, EPA…). The comparator never converts one standard into another: you see the manufacturer's original value.
