Proven Innovation
The New BT Reflex
Pushing standards to new heights
From tilting cabin to 360° steering, from AC power to regenerative braking, from transitional lift control to integrated telematics: Toyota has been class-leading with innovative features over the years. With the new BT Reflex Series, we are setting new benchmarks for safety, ergonomics, and energy efficiency.
Proven innovation
INTUITIVE
Reach truck drivers are often the best-qualified operators in your team. We help to make their life easier, safer, and more comfortable with a newly designed, ergonomic, and functional driver's compartment.
INTELLIGENT
Our analytics of 10.000 connected trucks proved that Lithium-ion batteries meet reach truck applications demands. So we offer you the choice between 3 energy packs to find the one that fits your operations. A responsible decision for your life cycle cost, productivity, and the environment.
INSIGHT
You can reach new levels in safety, productivity, and efficiency with the BT Reflex smart trucks as standard. Letting only authorised drivers start up the machine in a safe way, and making it easy to connect with I_Site fleet management from Toyota.
Intuitive driver experience
Lean back, look up
No two drivers are exactly the same, so we set out to design a solution that would be exactly the right height and angle, no matter who’s driving.
For maximum visibility, there is an optional panoramic glass roof. The unique tilting cabin on E-series models is a proven innovation reducing strain. A happy driver is a productive driver.
Next level comfort
The new optional air-suspension seat makes sure drivers can comfortably do the heavy lifting. The cabin floor height can also be easily adjusted at the touch of a button further improving driver ergonomics.
The essentials
Additional storage, a mobile phone charging point, and even an optional integrated Bluetooth speaker in the roof so you can listen to your favourite music all shift long.
Interactive touchscreen
Access control
The new touchscreen provides easy interaction between truck and driver. Meaning a higher level of safety and productivity. With a pin code or access card, you secure that only authorised drivers can operate the truck.
Drive control
Not only the essential pre-operational check is included in the new touchscreen interface but also other safety features such as automatic speed control, fork levelling, and centering. Safety first!
Lift mode
While lifting the load the drivers will get continuous updates on lift height, load weight, and fork alignment as well as more critical alerts like overload warnings.
Customise settings
The touchscreen allows you to control settings such as lift height limits and height pre-selection, and other performance parameters important for your operations.
Intelligent energy packs
Li-ion: The way to go
BT Reflex is equipped with Toyota’s own lithium-ion batteries as preferred energy solution. Quick and easy opportunity charging avoids battery changes, so, no need for a charging room.
Perfect fit
Analytics of 10.000 connected trucks prove that lithium-ion is the preferred energy solution to fit the most intensive reach truck applications. A perfect fit for both you and the environment.
Double the life time
As with all lithium-ion-based energy systems, it's maintenance-free and less daily care. This gives a higher lifetime which meets the truck life cycle. The working range will depend on the level of charging that takes place during working breaks.
3 different sizes
Good charging disciplines can enable trucks with even the smallest energy pack to work around the clock. But for maximum flexibility, we offer 3 different options
- Standard Pack
- Intensive Pack
- Max Pack
Insights with I_Site
Only authorised drivers
Creating unique driver profiles with PIN code in the I_Site portal ensures only trained and authorised drivers have access and can operate your machines. Or you can use Smart Access cards, nicely integrated into the driver interface
Increase safety
Pre-operational check is a smart I_Site feature that is included in the BT Reflex driver interface to make sure an automated check is done by your drivers before every shift – improving reliability and safety.
Messages via the truck
This I_Site feature allows easy sending of messages to and from the truck via the new driver interface. For example, the driver can send an alert in the event of a problem, and a service technician can send a message to the driver to request a return to base.
Manage impacts
Shock sensors on the BT Reflex provide information on collisions. Insights via I-Site fleet management on the incident and driver can help to prevent and avoid damage to your connected smart trucks and infrastructure – for a safer and more cost-efficient operation.

FAQ
Reach trucks are forklifts that offer high lift heights and high maneuverability in narrow aisles thanks to its ability to reach out the mast.
A reach truck can reach out the mast and pick up a pallet in front of the truck and then reach the pallet in again to obtain a small truck width with high stability and high maneuverability.
Lithium-ion batteries provide a wide variety of efficiency advantages, from consistent power delivery to faster-charging capabilities. At Toyota, we offer different energy packs to fit your operations and charging habits.
A lithium-ion battery lasts up to 5,000 charges, while a lead-acid battery lasts about 1,500 times.
Depending on the model, mast heights can reach up to about 13 meters with a maximum lifting capacity of up to 2.5 tonnes.
We have reach trucks for every application. You can find models for more straightforward application, more intensive stacking at height, with tilting cabin, for indoor and outdoor application, multi-directional, with narrow chassis and even cold storage application.
There are many different reach truck specifications to choose from depending on the required capacity and what type of load you handle. Contact your local salespeople for the best suitable specification and then the best price, either for purchase or for rent on short or long term.
With a good charging discipline, you can normally work around the clock with a lithium-ion-powered truck.
Common reach truck application areas are daily goods distribution in large warehouse centers, including frozen areas, manufacturing industries, garden & landscape business, farm industry, beverage, …
Our reach trucks are versatile machines but the best option to work inside as well as outside with our Reflex O-series equipped with elastic tyres to work on all types of floor.
With an optimum balance between operation and opportunity charging, a lithium-ion battery is worth the cost both from a sustainable and financial point of view.
