Lower life cycle costs Because the acquisition costs of investment goods typically make out only a fraction of the total life cycle costs, not only the purchase price but also the later operating costs, useful life and resale value play an important role in investment decisions. Balance sheet policies must also be considered when developing investment projects. Therefore, one of our basic objectives is to minimize the life cycle costs of our vehicles and to offer our customers not only traditional vehicle purchasing but also tailor-made leasing models.

Load-through platform Tarpaulin structure Higher utilization During hard daily use two things have always paid off in industrial trucks: a high range in order to minimize downtimes due to battery changing or battery charging processes and a high capacity in order to manage transport tasks efficiently. Today it is more important than ever, particularly in long-term investments, that investment goods can be configured as needed and used flexibly. Therefore the fulfillment of these requirements is one of our most important objectives. The VOLK Electric Platform Trucks EFW 1.5 – EFW 5 illustrate...

The VOLK Electric Platform Trucks EFW 1.5 - EFW 5 are designed so that they can be run on very large batteries. For example the EFW 2 - EFW 5 models can be equipped with batteries with a capacity of up to 80 V / 400 Ah as a standard feature. Even a capacity of 80 V / 575 Ah is possible with reduced payloads. Furthermore, the VOLK Electric Platform Trucks EFW 1.5 - EFW 5 are very energy efficient due to their comparably low empty weight. This is due to the fact that they are consistently designed for use as a platform truck from the start and are not based on a towing vehicle chassis like other...
