By accommodating larger batteries, the BX Cushion series can now run even longer between charges. With onboard diagnostics and controlled rollback, these forklifts are suited to a variety of heavy-duty applications, including bottling and grocery industries.

The new battery box can accommodate 25-plate batteries to provide longer battery life.

"The BX model line provides the same quality and reliability our products are known for, but is built for a longer runtime, giving our customers maximum performance in the field," says Mark Manninen, VP of sales and marketing for UniCarriers Americas. "These additional features and advancements bring out the best of an operator's time, and ultimately, deliver ideal uptime and productivity during a day's work."

The BXC40R and BXC50R are available now, with shipments starting in July 2020.
