Kalmar is introducing the upgraded Kalmar T2i Terminal Tractor designed to improve operational efficiency with enhanced modularity and superior ergonomics. <\/strong><\/p>\n

The T2i Terminal Tractor, now produced at Kalmar\u2019s Shanghai facility, is specifically tailored for heavy industrial sites, ports, terminals and distribution hubs across the APAC, Middle East, Africa, and Latin America regions.<\/p>\n

By combining Kalmar\u2019s legendary engineering with the precision of the Shanghai facility, Kalmar delivers a purpose-built solution that is tougher, quieter, and more versatile than its predecessor.<\/p>\n

To meet the most demanding requirements of diverse global operations, the T2i provides a modular platform that moves away from “one-size-fits-all” solutions, allowing customers to configure the precise machine needed for their specific cargo flow: Expanded capacities: Offering three distinct lifting capacities (28, 32, or 36 tonnes) to match varied load profiles.<\/p>\n

Modular wheelbases: Choose from 2,950 mm, 3,200 mm, or 3,450 mm frames to optimize maneuverability for tight distribution hubs or expansive port terminals.<\/p>\n

Engine options: Available with Stage 3A (Cummins QSB 6.7) for unregulated regions or Stage V (Cummins B6.7) for markets with stricter emission standards.<\/p>\n

The Kalmar T2i Terminal Tractor features a completely redesigned ROPS\/FOPS certified cabin and a significantly bolstered chassis architecture. Engineered for durability in the world’s most demanding environments, the unit includes a reinforced frame, heavy-duty axles, and a heavy-duty lift boom to ensure peak performance under high-cycle loads. These mechanical enhancements are paired with key interior improvements to prioritize operator well-being:
\nVisibility 2.0: A panoramic windscreen with no A-pillars and a curved corner design provides a significantly clearer field of view for safer operation.<\/p>\n

Acoustic excellence: Internal noise levels have been reduced to 75 dB(A)\u2014among the best in its class\u2014to reduce operator fatigue.<\/p>\n

High-heat readiness: A spacious 1.80 m cabin height paired with an optional high-capacity HVAC system designed specifically for extreme climates.<\/p>\n

Thor Brenden, President, Terminal Tractors, Kalmar: “At Kalmar, we don’t just build machines, we engineer the solutions that keep our customers\u2019 business moving forward. The Kalmar T2i represents our commitment to listening to the market and evolving alongside our customers.This solution offers significantly more safety features, more choices, and the same reliability our partners expect\u2014now backed by the efficiency and advanced capabilities of our Shanghai production line.”<\/p>\n
