BYD will showcase storage and electric mobility solutions at Intermodal

A BYD will present its complete solution in clean energy generation and storage, electric mobility and green logistics to visitors who go to the Intermodal 2023, considered the largest logistics, cargo transportation and foreign trade event in the Americas.

The 27th edition of Intermodal, which takes place between February 28th and March 2st, at the São Paulo Expo, in Sao Paulo-SP), is expected to bring together 500 exhibiting brands and receive approximately 40 visitors over the three days.

According to the company, the main launch will be the new reach truck RTR 20, with a load capacity of two tons. “BYD is a pioneer and revolutionized the Brazilian market for 100% electric forklifts.”

“It was the first brand to arrive in the country with models equipped with a lithium battery. Now, we present the new RTR 20 reach truck, an expected launch in the Brazilian market”, he said Juliano Cheng, sales manager for BYD forklifts in Brazil.

Alongside another model in the line, the RTR 16 It has a load capacity of 1,6 tons and is now available on the market. Both have a 3-stage panoramic mast, 80 V voltage, a tower up to 11,5 meters high and a charging time of less than 1,5 hours.
