Incorporating the same technological advances and attention to detail seen it all its other models, the new range of compact trucks will initially be available for load capacities between 2000kg - 3500kg (4000lb - 7000lb for the US market). With their slim line counterweight design, the new forklifts are capable of working in narrower aisles whilst still retaining all their key characteristics including a fully vibration isolated driver cell, quick and easy access to key components, anti-rollback technology and oil cooled disc brakes.

Nexen's group director Pam Oakes said "Our dealers have been asking for compact trucks from us for several months and we are now in a position to offer them. The release of a new range of trucks is always an exciting time for us and these models in particular have been long awaited."

"With the final stages of setting up production here in the UK almost complete, I can't wait to see these trucks rolling off the line and being shipped to our dealers worldwide."

Nexen hopes that these new models will help increase its sales in the North American market building on its already stable footing and provide both dealers and businesses worldwide with quality, robust forklifts at a competitive price.
