4-Wheel Li-ion Counterbalance Forklift 2000kg
The Premium version of EP's 2 tonne yard truck. Same 80V lithium-ion chassis as the EFL203, with stronger motors for faster travel, quicker lifting and steeper ramps.

The P stands for Premium. It keeps everything the EFL203 has and adds more power. Here's what changes.
A 15 kW drive motor and 18 kW lift motor replace the standard EFL203's 10 kW and 16 kW units. The result is 19 km/h with a load and 20 km/h empty.
Laden lift speed rises to 0.48 m/s, against 0.29 m/s on the standard truck. On a busy loading bay those seconds add up over a shift.
The P (Premium) version's 15 kW drive lets the EFL203P take a 22% slope with a load and 28% empty, against 15% and 20% on the standard EFL203. Steep loading ramps and sloping yards stop being a bottleneck.
Pneumatic tyres, 150 mm of ground clearance and waterproof construction come from the EFL203. It handles rough and wet ground just as well.
There is a built-in single-phase charger and an external port for a bigger charger. Choose the 230Ah battery or the optional 460Ah for longer working days.
A redesigned mast, neat hose routing and LED lights help visibility. The suspension seat with armrest and adjustable wheel keep drivers comfortable.
Same truck, different battery sizes, so you only pay for the capacity you'll use.
Most single shifts, with top-up charging in breaks.
Long or multi-shift work, which suits a truck built for pace.

See finance options →Premium. It is the EFL203 with stronger 15 kW drive and 18 kW lift motors. Travel speed rises to 19/20 km/h, lift speed to 0.48/0.54 m/s and gradeability to 22/28%, laden and unladen.
If the truck spends a lot of time travelling, works on steep ramps or needs high throughput, the P is worth it. For steady, mixed work the standard EFL203 is usually enough.
Yes, and the Premium spec helps on rough ground. Pneumatic 7.00-12 front tyres, 150 mm under the chassis and a waterproof build cope with wet, uneven yards, while 22% laden gradeability takes care of ramps.
The EFL203P comes with 230Ah at 80V. Because the Premium version travels at up to 20 km/h and lifts faster, the optional 460Ah pack is worth considering for long or multi-shift days. Share your shift pattern and we will recommend one.
No. Dimensions, weight, turning radius (2,110 mm) and battery options are the same. Only the performance changes.
Yes, on contract hire from 12 months, with servicing and repairs included in one fixed monthly payment. We don't offer short-term hire. See forklift hire.
It depends on the mast, battery and options you need. Ask for a price and we'll quote it to buy outright, on finance or on contract hire.
