Description
The Linde Xi16–Xi20 P (1251 series) is an electric four-wheel forklift from Linde, covering lifting capacities from 1.6 tonnes (Xi16) to 2.0 tonnes (Xi20). The Xi16–Xi20 P is part of the Linde 1251 series and is the highest-performing four-wheel model in the 1 to 2-tonne class.
Linde Xi16–Xi20 P specs and lifting capacity:
The series covers lifting capacities from 1,600 kg (Xi16) to 2,000 kg (Xi20) with a maximum lifting height of 8,000 mm. 90-volt technology with an integrated Li-ION battery without a battery tray delivers lift speeds up to 20 percent above the industry average and a top speed of 21 km/h. The series is available in six variants with different battery sizes and chassis lengths. For full dimensions and technical specifications, see the product page for the Xi16–Xi20 P.
What makes the Linde Xi16–Xi20 P unique is the combination of 90-volt technology with an integrated Li-ION battery and a choice between two axle types. It is the only four-wheel model in this class that can be configured with either Linde's combination steering axle for tight indoor manoeuvrability, or a pendulum axle for permanent outdoor use on uneven surfaces, without compromising on performance.
Compared to the Linde E16–E20 P (1251 series), which uses 48-volt technology, the Xi16–Xi20 P delivers higher performance and lift speeds up to 20 percent above the industry average. The Linde Xi16–Xi20 RP is the Roadster variant in the same category, with the A-pillar removed for maximum visibility, but without the pendulum axle as an option.
The Linde Xi16–Xi20 P is particularly well suited to intensive operations with frequent lifting and lowering, such as in production lines, distribution centres and high-throughput warehouses. The combination of high lift speed, a top speed of 21 km/h and efficient motor heat management ensures the truck delivers full performance throughout the entire shift, including in demanding multi-shift operation. The integrated Li-ION battery without a battery tray provides good legroom and a lower step-in height than competing models. The mast, drive axle and steering axle are decoupled from the chassis with elastomer mounts, protecting the operator from vibrations when travelling on uneven surfaces.
Operating a forklift requires a forklift operator licence class T4, which can be obtained through a forklift operator course with us.
