Indoor and outdoor electric forklifts, built for the yard
EP's EFL range does a diesel truck's job on yards, ramps and loading bays, with no exhaust, so the same truck can work indoors too. There are 21 models from 1.8 to 3.8 tonnes, to buy or hire across Ireland and Northern Ireland.
Several models in stock now, with prices below.
Will it climb your ramp, fully loaded?
Ramps are where a weak truck gets found out. Measure how high your ramp rises and how long it is, and see which versions of the EFL can climb it with a full load.
Your ramp is drawn at its true angle. The dashed lines mark 15%, 20% and 22%, the range of EP's figures for climbing with a full load.
21 models, mapped
The range comes in six versions across six capacities. Pick the row for how hard the truck works and the column for your heaviest load. Green figures show what's in stock now.
Speeds and gradeability are with a full load. Lift heights are for the tallest mast. All figures are from EP's data sheets.

Replacing a diesel or LPG truck?
An electric EFL lifts and drives like a diesel truck of the same size. Before you switch, check these three things with us.
- Your rampsUse the ramp check above. The S, P and Pro versions climb the steepest ramps with a full load.
- Your hoursBatteries run from 100Ah on the X2 to 460Ah on the 303P and 353P. Lithium tops up in breaks, so you match the battery to your shifts.
- Your charging pointWe look at where the truck will charge and what supply you have there, before you order.

Can an electric forklift work outside in the rain?
Yes. The EFL range is built for yards as well as warehouses. Cabs, lights and pneumatic tyres are available on many models. Tell us about your ground, ramps and weather and we'll recommend the right set-up.
Can an electric forklift replace my diesel forklift?
In most cases, yes. An EFL lifts and drives like a diesel truck of the same size, with no exhaust. Check three things with us first: how steep your ramps are, how many hours the truck works, and where it will charge.
How steep a ramp can it climb?
With a full load, EP's figures run from 15% on the X2 and most standard models to 22% on the best P and Pro models. A ramp that rises 90 cm over 6 m is 15%. For a ramp you use all day, leave some margin, and tell us the ramp's length and height so we can check it.
What do X2, X5, S, P and Pro mean?
They are EP's versions within the range. X2 is the entry model, with an 80V 100Ah battery and masts to 4.8 m. The standard EFL and the X5 carry bigger batteries. The S and P versions are faster and climb steeper ramps, and the 303P and 353P carry 460Ah batteries for long shifts. The Pro models are EP's premium trucks, with the quickest lifting and a seat noise level under 70 dB(A).
What battery size do I need?
It depends on how many hours the truck works and how hard. A single shift with breaks to top up suits the smaller batteries. Double shifts, heavy loads and lots of ramps suit the bigger batteries on the P versions. We'll work it out from your hours.
Can I hire an indoor / outdoor forklift?
Yes. Every model is available on contract hire, at a weekly price on a 12-month contract, with servicing, repairs and GA1 or LOLER inspections included. We don't do short-term hire.
Who services the forklift?
Our own mobile engineers service and repair EP forklifts across all 32 counties and carry out the statutory thorough examination (GA1 in the Republic, LOLER in Northern Ireland). Genuine EP parts come direct from the factory.
