Nissan Forklift Introduces New Heart-of-the-Line EPA Compliant Engine Powered Forklifts

Marengo, Illinois - January 2004. Nissan Forklift is pleased to announce the introduction of their next generation of engine-powered forklifts, the Platinum Series. Available in pneumatic, compact pneumatic, and cushion tire models, these forklifts have been redesigned from the ground up to incorporate the latest technological advances for increased efficiency and performance, while greatly reducing exhaust emissions to exceed the new requirements established by EPA for 2004 and beyond. These new models are in full production and are being manufactured in Nissan's Marengo, Illinois production facility.

Available in an exciting, new metallic silver color scheme, these models are designed to deliver the "Perfect Balance for Owner, Operator, and the Environment," providing increased performance, comfort, and lower cost of ownership than previous models. With new stringent EPA air quality standards in full effect beginning in 2004, Nissan has once again taken the leadership position in clean air engine technology by becoming the first forklift manufacturer to receive compliance status with their new Electronic Concentrated Control System on all new Nissan K21 and K25, gasoline, LPG, and dual fuel industrial engines.
