Electric Retrofit Awarded at Drive to Zero Exhibition

Manitou Group, has been honored with the Innovation Award for its retrofitted telehandler at the Drive to Zero exhibition.
Initiated in 2024, the Drive to Zero Innovation Award celebrates groundbreaking concepts that are shaping the future of decarbonized mobility. From a pool of numerous submissions, the jury selected the development of the retrofitted telehandler for the

“Vehicle Technology and Innovation” category. Based on criteria of originality, environmental impact, and potential for widespread adoption, the jury recognized an impressive initiative that meets a significant demand for decarbonizing construction sites.

“We are delighted to receive this inaugural award for our retrofitted handler. This solution for electrifying existing fleets maintains an equivalent level of performance while significantly reducing noise pollution and emissions from diesel machines. The initial feedback we’ve gathered over the past two months has been exceptionally positive and encouraging,” stated Gabriel Raffour, Services Innovation manager at Manitou Group.

This partnership, commenced in 2024 with the Kiloutou Group, is the result of a collaborative effort expanded to include Bouygues Construction Matériel and Equans for the implementation of this testing phase.
