Forklift Truck Market Size, Share, Opportunities, And Trends By Power-Train Type (Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) Forklifts, Electric Forklift, Hybrid Forklift), By Vehicle Class (Class I, II, III, IV, V, Others), By End-User (Logistics and Warehousing, Industrial, Construction, Manufacturing, Others), And By Geography – Forecasts from 2025 to 2030

Forklift Truck Market Size:

The Forklift Truck Market is expected to grow from US$51.114 billion in 2025 to US$62.075 billion in 2030, at a CAGR of 3.96%.

Forklift Truck Market Trends:

A motorized commercial truck called a forklift is designed to lift and transport items over short ranges. As manufacturers embrace automation to increase their manufacturing capability, the market is expected to expand during the timeframe of forecast period. These trucks let producers move diverse components and materials quickly and efficiently from warehouses to the assembly line, which reduces the need for human labor.

The e-commerce industry's advancements will also fuel the market expansion for forklift trucks. The large demand for forklift trucks from developing countries is likely to propel market expansion in the Asia-Pacific region. One of the main aspects that is expected to support the market's growth is the rise in industrialization. This expansion is partly a result of rising demand from emerging markets like China and India.

Forklift Truck Market Growth Drivers:

• Electric powered

Due to their expanding uses and the quick development of technology, electric-powered forklift trucks will soon have lucrative opportunities. Such electrically-powered forklift trucks can load and transport incredibly big products from the ground and are thought to be perfect for indoor settings. These vehicles' significant emission levels encourage customers to switch to electric material handling methods that are simple to manage and operate inside warehouses.

In the developed nations of North America, Europe, and Asia, where there is a well-established e-commerce business, stringent emissions regulations, and sustainability concerns, the usage of electrically driven forklifts is expanding. In order to differentiate themselves from their rivals, a number of firms that are operating in the battery-powered forklift market are constantly developing new variants. For instance, Toyota introduced the Traigo 80 heavy-duty electric forklift in October 2019. Toyota added two additional models to its portfolio of four-wheel, sit-down counterweight lift trucks in April 2020.

In comparison to the previous models, the new 3,000-pound and 3,500-pound versions were predicted to have approximately 27% speedier traveling, lifting, and lower speeds, as well as an enhanced run-time by roughly 12%. Additionally, in December 2020, the family-owned material handling and forklift business A D Lift Truck was announced to be purchased by Wolter Group LLC. The company's selection of battery-powered forklifts was increased with the transaction. These battery-powered forklift trucks are anticipated to rise quickly during the analyzed period because of their many additional benefits, which include minimal noise, zero emissions, superior visibility, and the ability to execute nearly all tasks that an IC forklift can.

Forklift Truck Market Geographical Outlook:

• North America

Sales are anticipated to increase significantly in the North American region during the projected period. Due to significant US participants, this expansion is projected. These players are heavily investing in the use of modern forklift trucks rather than outdated forklift trucks. State and local authorities in the area use a variety of rebates and regulations to assist the expansion of the forklift truck business. State laws in Chicago have compelled material handling businesses to innovate and develop modern technologies.

Hyster Yale unveiled two cutting-edge products as a result of its R&D efforts, including the first counterbalanced electrical forklift truck the business has ever produced with a factory-integrated lithium-ion battery pack. Sales of this machinery are projected to experience significant expansion in the region over the studied period due to the alignment with the goals of the present US government to generate employment for its residents, causing North America to achieve significant growth for the forklift trucks market. For instance, Electro Vaya Inc. declared in June 2019 that it would be releasing more than 25 distinct lithium-ion ceramic battery variants for the market for battery-powered forklifts. There are 23 locations where the lithium-ion ceramic batteries from the Electro Vaya are in use, including 20 in the United States, 2 in Canada, and 1 in Mexico.
