Mitsubishi EDiA EM 1.6-2.0 tonnes electric counterbalance truck

Cutting edge technology, built for your operators

Smart. Safe. Agile. EDiA EM is a lot of truck in a compact package. Legendary Mitsubishi Forklift Trucks engineering, exceptional ergonomics, and cutting edge technology - like AutoBoost and Sensitive Drive System+ (SDS+) - combine to make EDiA a favourite of drivers and businesses alike.

These electric trucks offer unmatched manoeuvrability for efficient, highly productive working with incredibly tight steer angles - including the option of time-saving 360-degree steering on the three-wheel models.

The intelligent systems at the heart of the truck work to perfectly match the driver, offering precise, consistent performance that's tailored to the individual operator.

Sensitive Drive System+ (SDS+)

This driver-assist system responds intuitively to the individual operator's input - altering the performance characteristics for greater productivity and safety.

Mini steering wheel with floating armrest

This ergonomically adjustable control setup makes operating far more comfortable for the driver during long shifts. This not only minimises fatigue, keeping them more focused and productive, but reduces the risk of RSI and other strains in the neck and shoulders, a common cause of driver absence which comes with related costs.

AutoBoost

Patent Pending The truck senses when power is needed, and will automatically activate acceleration and torque boosts.

Automatic Hill Hold

AHH prevents rollback even when fully loaded on very steep ramps. This makes for safer and faster loading/unloading. Operator safety is increased while improving productivity and reducing product damage.

Four Wheel Steering (4WS)

This gives better grip and manoeuvrability, particularly in tight spaces, as the truck can turn quickly and easily on the spot.

Red Dot design award winner

Red Dot is an internationally recognised symbol of outstanding design, marking the best in aesthetics, functionality, and innovation. The truck's next-generation design, combined with a host of outstanding features, and class-leading ergonomics greatly impressed the expert jury.

Electric differential lock

When activated, the electric differential lock will give the truck the best possible traction by spinning both front wheels, and can be preset to engage when speed is low or steering angle is limited.

Li-ion battery

This option allows for quick charging, while minimising maintenance - avoiding the need for costly extra batteries and time-consuming changeovers. (Option)

Intelligent Cornering System

Automatically adjusts truck speed according to steer angle for increased operator and site safety, improved productivity and reduced tyre wear.

Passive Sway Control

Mast sway movements are dampened by the chassis, enabling operators to lift confidently to high heights.

Dual joysticks

Offering simultaneous lift and tilt functions, the ergonomic dual joysticks have good grip, especially when used with gloves.

Developed for safety, Automatic Hill Hold automatically stops your truck from rolling while manoeuvring on ramps.

It activates as soon as the operator's foot is removed from the accelerator - without separate switches or handles.

Standard on this range

ErgoCentric describes our approach to meeting your operator's ergonomic needs.

<strong><span style=text-transform:none;>ErgoCentric</span></strong>

You'll see this approach throughout the truck, but particularly in the operator's compartment where providing spacious, uncluttered access and maximum visibility are top priorities.

Standard on this range

Helps prevent dangerously fast cornering using intelligent speed reduction from the moment the truck enters the turn, rather than kicking in harshly midway.

<strong>Intelligent Cornering System</strong>

Sensing the angle of a turn, speed is dynamically reduced at the start of and throughout the turn for smoother, safer, and more consistent cornering.

Standard on this range

IPS2 prevents all truck and mast movement if the operator is not seated to prevent accidental lifting, lowering, tilting and travel. An electronic parking brake is applied automatically if the seat is empty and this can also be done manually via a dashboard button.

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

Features In Detail :

Exceptional, zero-emissions efficiency - 40% more efficient than lead-acid batteries and free from gases.
Ultra-low maintenance design - Just a full charge each week to activate cell balancing, as well as an annual CSV export/update.
No space required - With no need for charging areas, there's no cost for set up and you can keep your profitable space just that: profitable.
Quick charge capabilities - Just 15 minutes is all your battery needs to keep your truck going a few more hours. (It only takes 1 to 2 hours to fully charge a completely discharged battery.)
Higher sustained voltage - This ensures more consistent lifting and driving performance, which is particularly noticeable towards the end of a shift.
TriCOM Technology - Helps to deliver exceptionally high system efficiency (up to 97%)
