Having introduced the six-metre battery powered Faresin telehandler to the UK in 2020, dealer GGR has now brought in the larger version with a 17-metre boom. Lynch likes what it sees.

Lynch director Chris Gill said: “We are very excited about this new wave of innovative electric-driven equipment. The Faresin product has built up a reputation for being the leading electric telehandler on the market at their moment, with their six-metre model.

“We see bigger market potential for larger electric telehandler models, so with the launch of the 17-metre versions towards the end of last year, it makes sense to make a commitment to add them to our fleet.”

GGR’s telehandler sales manager, Gareth Baxendale, added: “Lynch are coming on board at a very exciting time and there has been an exceptional amount of interest in these products from across the industry in recent weeks. Where there used to be a sense of novelty with electric telehandlers in the past, it has now been replaced with customers who know the technology is proven and want to put the units into major projects.”
