Each of the A Series is tailored to the specific customer’s needs using A+ Logic, an integrated set of scalable and adjustable features. The first in the series, the H2.0-3.5A internal combustion model, is available now.

“For the A Series, Hyster has revolutionised its manufacturing process to deliver the tough, high quality lift trucks that you expect, built around the particular needs of the intended application and the operator,” explained Robert O’Donoghue, vice president marketing and solutions EMEA, for Hyster. “That’s why we describe this series as ‘Distinctly Hyster, built for you’.”

“We have designed the trucks this way as no two customers face identical challenges,” continued Robert O’Donoghue. “With the Hyster A Series, instead of providing you with options for a truck we already built, we build the truck you need according to your duty cycle, environment and tasks.”

The Hyster H2.0-3.5A internal combustion lift trucks with capacities from 2 to 3.5 tonnes are the first trucks to be released in the series.

The operator cabin on the H2.0-3.5A trucks is engineered to emphasise overhead, forward, and rear visibility and give the operator greater freedom of movement. Additionally, there are add-on features including operator assistance systems and a dynamic stability system option.

All A Series trucks are ‘telematics ready’ for use with the Hyster Tracker wireless asset management solution, which allows businesses to optimise their fleets, control costs, reduce downtime and streamline maintenance.

The newly released models replace the Hyster Fortens and XT lift trucks at the same capacity. The A Series is expected to expand to include other Hyster IC lift trucks in various capacities in due course.
