Hiab launches the MULTILIFT eULTIMA
Hiab, part of Cargotec, launches the MULTILIFT eULTIMA, the world’s first plug-and-play hooklift designed specifically for electric trucks. Built with sustainability in mind, the MULTILIFT eULTIMA is designed to deliver exceptional performance and efficiency, setting a new industry standard. Meet them in stands A06:26 och U501:18.

The MULTILIFT eULTIMA features seamless integration by utilising the
truck’s ePTO for power, ensuring easy installation and optimal performance with energy-efficient controls.

The silent performance is Ideal for city centres and nighttime deliveries. This product features various noise reduction technologies, including a white noise buzzer, an optimised hydraulic system, and mechanical noise suppression technology. Built to enhance efficiency, the exclusive performance Package boosts speed and energy efficiency, while proportional controls enhance precision and operational efficiency. Optimised control parameters ensure that
energy is used only as needed, with no consumption when the hooklift is not in operation.

The MULTILIFT eULTIMA is made from MULTILIFT Ultima ZERO™, a
recycled, fossil carbon emission-free steel, reducing production carbon
emissions by 15% and active use emissions by 25%. Hiab, as part of
Cargotec, is partnering with Swedish steel producer SSAB. In 2023
Cargotec and SSAB took their partnership to the next level by introducing SSAB Zero™, a fossil carbon emission-free recycled steel, to the cargo and load handling industry used in the eULTIMA and a plan to use it in more of Hiab’s products in the future.

“We are very proud to present our MULTILIFT eULTIMA not only because it is the world’s first plug-and-play hooklift for electric trucks and offers exceptional performance and features. This product demonstrates Hiab’s long-term commitment to sustainability, energy efficiency and a better future for our planet,“ said Pauli Siivonen, Global Product Manager, Multilift Demountables and Defence.

The MULTILIFT eULTIMA will be displayed during the Elmia Lastbil Truck Exhibition, the largest transport event in the Nordic region, at Hiab’s booth A06:26 and U501:18 on August 21 - 24. Partnering with Volvo Trucks, The MULTILIFT eULTIMA will be mounted on a Volvo electric truck also made from recycled, fossil carbon emission free steel produced by SSAB.

Related to the MULTILIFT eULTIMA, Hiab will also present for the first time at the Elmia Exhibition the MULTILIFT Value Calculator designed to help customers assess the Total Cost of Ownership and CO2 emissions, Return on Investment and how the Performance Package and MULTILIFT ZERO steel will help save time, investment, and the environment.
