In modern warehouse operations, a forklift is an indispensable tool – not just any forklift, but one that combines power, safety and efficiency in a single compact solution. The Lonking N Series three-wheel electric counterbalance truck was designed precisely for this purpose: to deliver reliable performance in large logistics centres and narrow warehouse aisles alike, where every centimetre counts.
This electric counter-balanced forklift is available in three load-capacity variants – 1,600 kg, 1,800 kg and 2,000 kg – making it a flexible solution for businesses of all sizes and operational requirements. Thanks to AC motor technology and advanced electronic control systems, the Lonking N Series provides smooth travel, precise load handling and extended battery life throughout a full working shift.
VVN supplies Lonking N Series counter-balanced forklifts with a complete delivery and after-sales service package across Latvia. If you are looking for equipment that reduces operating costs, improves operator productivity and complies with European safety standards – this warehouse counterbalance truck is exactly what you need.
When choosing between a three-wheel and a four-wheel model, many businesses ask the same question: what is the real-world difference? The answer is straightforward – a three-wheel counter-balanced forklift delivers significant advantages wherever manoeuvrability and space optimisation are critical.
You get a better offer?
Unlike a four-wheel counterbalance truck, a three-wheel model has a considerably smaller turning radius. This means the three-wheel counter-balanced forklift can operate freely in aisles starting from just 2.7-3.0 m wide – a critical parameter in modern warehouses with high racking and densely arranged loading zones, where a four-wheel model simply cannot make the turn.
In addition to superior manoeuvrability, the three-wheel electric counterbalance truck stands out for its lower operating costs. No fuel expenses, fewer wearing components compared to internal combustion models, and simplified maintenance translate directly into less downtime. The Lonking N Series regenerative braking system returns energy to the battery during every deceleration event, effectively extending the working shift without additional charging.
The three-wheel counterbalance truck also excels from an ergonomic standpoint: operators sit in a less fatiguing position, with excellent forward visibility and intuitive controls. Lonking N Series achieves this with a redesigned cab and an adjustable seat, reducing operator fatigue during long shifts.

The Lonking N Series electric counter-balanced forklift is engineered with maximum efficiency and operator comfort in mind. Here are six key advantages that make this counterbalance truck a popular choice in Latvian and European warehouses:
The Lonking N Series warehouse forklift is a versatile piece of equipment that finds application across a wide range of industries. Its compact dimensions and electric drive make it an ideal solution both in environments where air quality is critical and in settings with high cargo throughput:
Logistics and distribution centres – Narrow warehouse aisles and multi-level racking demand precise manoeuvring. A three-wheel forklift operates efficiently in densely stocked warehouses, reducing operator cycle times and accelerating cargo processing.
Food production and storage facilities – The electric counterbalance truck produces no exhaust emissions and complies with hygiene requirements for controlled environments. This is particularly important in the food and pharmaceutical sectors, where air quality is strictly regulated.
Production workshops and assembly areas – The compact design allows this counterbalance truck to operate in close proximity to machinery, rapidly delivering materials to production lines and removing finished goods.
Retail warehouses and distribution hubs – For large retail operations handling hundreds of pallets daily, the Lonking N Series counter-balanced forklift delivers speed and safety simultaneously.
Import and export terminals – At ports and freight terminals where operations run around the clock, the N Series electric counterbalance truck provides continuous availability thanks to fast charging between shifts.
The Lonking N Series counter-balanced forklift fully complies with European CE marking requirements and EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, guaranteeing that the equipment meets the highest safety standards. Every counterbalance truck is equipped with an operator presence sensor, automatic braking, an overload warning system and stability control.
VVN not only supplies the equipment but also organises operator training in accordance with LVS EN ISO standards, ensuring your team can work safely and competently with the new electric forklift. Our specialists also assist in preparing the documentation required to meet occupational health and safety obligations.
A three-wheel counter-balanced forklift is an electric counterbalance truck with a single steered rear wheel instead of two, which significantly reduces the turning radius and makes the machine far more manoeuvrable in confined spaces. A four-wheel model offers greater stability on uneven surfaces and is better suited to demanding outdoor tasks, whereas the three-wheel counterbalance truck is the ideal solution for warehouses with closely spaced racking and narrow aisles, where compactness and speed are decisive factors.
The Lonking N Series three-wheel counter-balanced forklift is primarily designed for indoor use on smooth concrete or asphalt surfaces. Outdoor use is possible on flat, hard ground; however, uneven, stony or muddy terrain is not recommended, as it affects stability and battery life. If you need a forklift for mixed indoor/outdoor operations, we recommend consulting the VVN team to identify the most appropriate model.
Electric counterbalance trucks require less frequent servicing than internal combustion models. The recommended maintenance interval is every 500 operating hours, covering hydraulic system inspection, mast chain examination, tyre wear assessment and electrical connection checks. Operators carry out a visual pre-shift inspection before each working shift. An annual full technical service by a certified VVN technician is strongly recommended to ensure long service life and safe operation throughout the equipment's.
The Lonking N Series forklift's 48 V / 400-480 Ah lead-acid battery provides up to 8 hours of operating time under normal load conditions; with a lithium-ion battery option, runtime can extend to 10-12 hours. The regenerative braking system recovers a portion of energy during deceleration, effectively prolonging the shift duration. A standard charger fully recharges the battery in 6-8 hours, while a fast-charging solution can achieve a full charge in 2 hours or less - enabling the machine to operate continuously across two consecutive shifts.
