EP Red: the core EP range

83 models from 0.7 to 7.5 tonnes, across all six truck types.

Prices are on every model we have in stock.

Green, Red or Pro?

EP sorts every truck it makes into three ranges, from value to premium. This page is about EP Red.

The range most of our customers run

EP Red is EP Equipment's main line, and where you'll find most of its trucks, in the widest choice of capacities, masts and batteries. It sits between the value-focused EP Green range and the top-specification EP Pro range.

EP builds Red for buyers who want more than the basics: bigger batteries, more mast and cab options, and trucks for every job from a few hours a day to busy multi-shift sites. Many forklifts come in two or three versions of the same capacity, so you can match the battery to your hours.

"Complete service support, advanced features, and local troubleshooting."

Standard, S or P?

The EFL253, EFL303 and EFL353 each come in three versions with the same capacity. The difference is the battery, motors and speed, so you pay for the hours your truck actually works.

Questions about EP Red

Anything else, call us on 01 5267 411 (ROI) or 028 3833 7038 (NI).

What is the EP Red range?

EP Red is EP Equipment's core line. We supply 83 Red models, covering every machine type EP makes: electric forklifts, pallet trucks, stackers, reach trucks, order pickers and tow tractors.

What do the S and P versions of EP forklifts mean?

On the EFL253, EFL303 and EFL353, the standard, S and P versions share the same capacity. The S versions have stronger motors, and the P versions carry the biggest batteries and run fastest, for intensive work. Each model page has the full specification, and we will help you pick the one that suits your hours.

Can I hire an EP Red truck?

The Red forklifts, stackers, reach trucks and order pickers are available on contract hire: a weekly price on a 12-month contract, with servicing, repairs and thorough examinations included. We hire pallet trucks and tow tractors only as part of a fleet, alongside forklifts or other trucks.

Are EP Red trucks lithium-ion?

Most are. The forklifts, pallet trucks, reach trucks and most stackers run on lithium-ion, and a few compact stackers, such as the EST122, use a maintenance-free sealed AGM battery. Each model page lists the battery.

How much does an EP Red truck cost?

It depends on the model, mast, battery and options. Every Red truck we have in stock shows its price on this page, excluding VAT. For anything else, tell us what you need and we will send a price the same working day.

What is the difference between EP Red, Green and Pro?

They are EP's three ranges. Green is the value range for lighter work, Red is the core range with the widest choice, and Pro is the premium range for intensive, heavy or high-lift work, including high-voltage forklifts up to 25 tonnes.
