Kalmar Hybrid Shuttle Carrier

Kalmar Hybrid Shuttle Carriers, same power, 40% less fuel.

Reducing fuel consumption levels often means compromising on power but that isn’t the case with a Kalmar Hybrid Shuttle Carrier for ports and terminals. 

The Kalmar Hybrid Shuttle Carrier is able to reduce your emission by up to 40% by using a regenerative power system coupled with a highly efficient diesel engine that uses less fuel. You will also benefit from lower noise levels as both our battery powered and hybrid machines are incredibly quiet. Any light pollution can also be dramatically reduced when operating a Kalmar AutoShuttleas it does not require lights to operate in the dark.
