Toyota revolutionary Power System, using the latest software technology to maximize power management


A lider in AC technology

Toyota fork trucks have always benefited from Toyota's unique experience in the automotive industry, as well as in industrial applications as in, for example, Electric Towing Tractors.

With the introduction of Prius, the world's first series production hybrid car, Toyota has now firmly established itself as an industry leader in the development of AC power systems.

Compact AC motor

Toyota AC motors are more compact for the same power output when compared to  conventional DC motors. This difference in physical size has allowed relocating the battery under the floor of the truck, resulting in more head and legroom that increase driver comfort and efficiency.

Regenerative braking 

Toyota’s AC power systems provide a strong regenerative braking force that makes driving safer. At the same time, they return up to 30% of the total power used to the battery, considerably increasing operating time.

Power select function

Toyota's Power Select Function offers a choice of three power modes - "standard", "power" and "high power" - allowing the operator to select the best mode for a particular working situation. This function also helps preserving battery power.
