BYD forklift leasing industry solution: lithium battery matrix for all models, helping the leasing industry to reduce costs and increase efficiency

2026-07-01

Forklift leasing is an important business form of industrial logistics, which needs to adapt to the differentiated operation needs of multiple customers such as manufacturing, warehousing, and logistics. The versatility of equipment, operation and maintenance costs, and environmental compliance directly affect the operating efficiency and market competitiveness of leasing enterprises. With the acceleration of the electrification trend of industrial vehicles, the shortcomings of traditional internal combustion forklifts and lead-acid battery forklifts in energy consumption, environmental protection, and operation and maintenance are gradually emerging. In response to the scene characteristics and business needs of the leasing industry, BYD forklifts rely on the accumulation of lithium iron phosphate battery technology to launch a multi-category lithium battery handling equipment solution to help leasing enterprises optimize the fleet structure, control operating costs, and improve service adaptation capabilities.

First, the working conditions and equipment requirements of the leasing industry

The leasing industry has multiple service scenarios, and the working conditions present four core characteristics. First, the demand for models covers a wide range. Customer operations cover unloading platforms, workshop transshipment, warehouse stacking, finished product shipment and other links. The load span is large. There is a market demand for counterweight forklifts, forward trucks, tractors, pallet trucks and other types of equipment. Among them, 3.0T-3.5T counterweight forklifts are mostly used. Second, the operation intensity is high. The leasing enterprises mostly adopt the multi-shift production industry model. The equipment runs for a long time on an average day, and the reliability and battery life of the vehicle are relatively high. Third, indoor operations are the main ones. Most of the application scenarios are concentrated in workshops and warehouses, and there are clear requirements for the emission level and operating noise of the equipment. Fourth, stacking operations are common, and stacking storage of goods in storage scenarios is a routine requirement. There are corresponding standards for the lifting stability and control accuracy of equipment.

Second, the operational pain points of traditional rental fleets

The current leasing industry equipment is still dominated by internal combustion forklifts, and lead-acid battery models account for a high proportion of electric forklifts. The two types of equipment have many common pain points in long-term operation.

In terms of internal combustion forklifts, the first is the high cost of energy consumption. According to the calculation of the 3.5T model working 20 hours a day, the monthly fuel cost of a single unit is relatively high, and the fluctuation of oil price will also bring cost uncertainty; secondly, the pressure of environmental compliance is high, and the exhaust emissions and operating noise are easy to affect the working environment in indoor operation scenarios. It also faces increasingly strict environmental protection supervision; thirdly, the maintenance cost is high, the internal combustion vehicle structure is complicated, the engine needs regular maintenance, the core component replacement cost is high, and the risk of failure under heavy work conditions is relatively higher, which will increase the operation and maintenance investment and shutdown loss of the leasing enterprise.

In terms of lead-acid battery forklifts, there are problems such as cumbersome daily maintenance, the need for spare batteries, acid mist and hydrogen emissions during charging, and the need to build a dedicated charging room, which not only increases management costs, but also makes it difficult to adapt to the flexible scheduling needs of multiple customers.

III. BYD lithium battery forklift leasing adaptation plan

In response to the operating characteristics and pain points of the leasing industry, BYD forklifts focus on multi-tonnage counterbalanced forklifts, with pallet trucks, forward stackers, tractors, and other models to form a complete product matrix, providing adaptation solutions from three dimensions: product performance, cost control, and service guarantee.

In terms of product performance, all models are equipped with large-capacity lithium iron phosphate batteries, which are maintenance-free and can be used at any time. There is no need to equip spare batteries or build a special charging room, which can be flexibly adapted to the site conditions of different customers. 3.0T and 3.5T models can support 8-10 hours of continuous operation on a single charge. With a high-current charging cabinet, it can be quickly replenished by the operation gap to meet the needs of multi-shift continuous operation. The vehicle is equipped with a high-power motor and a brand drive axle, with stable power output. It can adapt to most heavy-duty handling scenarios when driving and improving performance. At the same time, it is equipped with mainstream mature controllers, hydraulic systems and other core components. With a reinforced body design, it can ensure the reliability of the vehicle under high-intensity operation.

In terms of cost control, based on the calculation of the 3.5T model working 20 hours a day, the monthly electricity bill of a single unit is much lower than the fuel expenditure of the same tonnage internal combustion forklift; the comprehensive calculation of energy consumption, maintenance and other costs is based on a five-year cycle. Compared with internal combustion forklifts and lead-acid battery forklifts, both can effectively reduce the comprehensive operation investment of a single equipment and help leasing enterprises improve their profitability. At the same time, the vehicle supports the customization of door frame height and fork specifications, and can be attached to professional attachments such as side shifters and push-pull devices, which can adapt to the operational needs of customers in different industries and improve the versatility and rental rate of equipment.

In terms of service guarantee, BYD provides a 5-year quality assurance cycle for batteries, which can reduce the long-term operation and maintenance concerns of leasing enterprises; establish a full-link service system covering pre-sale, in-sale and after-sale, supporting hierarchical response mechanisms and stepped professional training; At the same time, it supports sales, financial leasing, operating leasing and other flexible cooperation models to adapt to different procurement and operation plans of leasing enterprises.

IV. Industry landing practice

At present, BYD forklifts have reached cooperation with a number of leading leasing companies such as Franz and Tuohong, and the supply models cover all types of equipment such as multi-tonnage counterweight forklifts, reach forklifts, tractors, pallet trucks, etc. The stable operation performance and low operation and maintenance costs have been recognized by cooperative customers. In addition to leasing formats, related models have also been put into use in manufacturing, logistics, food and other industries to meet the handling needs of different fields.

With the continuous advancement of industrial vehicle electrification and green logistics, lithium-ion forklifts have become an important direction for fleet upgrades in the leasing industry. BYD forklifts rely on their own lithium-ion technology advantages and full-category product layout to continuously polish exclusive solutions for the leasing industry. While ensuring equipment reliability and operational efficiency, they help leasing enterprises reduce operating costs, expand service scenarios, and provide reliable equipment support for the green upgrade of the leasing industry.
