Kalmar has announced the launch of the fully electric version of the Kalmar TT7 terminal tractor, the TT7 EV. Specifically engineered to meet the growing demand for zero-emission solutions in the European market, the TT7 EV joins the newly released TT7 series as a robust, battery-electric alternative for port terminal, yard, and logistics operations. The start of sales will take place on 19-21 May 2026 in the TOC Europe Conference in Hamburg, Germany.
The Kalmar TT7 EV has the re-engineered chassis of the TT7 series, which was developed based on extensive customer feedback regarding durability and ease of maintenance. By utilizing a heavy-duty galvanized steel frame and reinforced axles, the terminal tractor provides the structural integrity required for demanding European shunting operations.
- Superior visibility: One of the widest front view windscreens in the industry, paired with large rear windows and convex side mirrors to ensure operator safety.
- Operational connectivity: Delivered with the hardware and software required for MyKalmar INSIGHT, allowing customers to monitor battery health and performance metrics to drive operational efficiency.
- Maintenance-friendly design: To simplify repairs, the front bumper is constructed in three sections, and the electric drivetrain reduces the number of mechanical components requiring service.
- Operator comfort: The cabin features improved suspension, climate control, and other updated ergonomic features to ensure a productive working environment.
Thor Brenden, President, Terminal Tractors at Kalmar: “The Kalmar TT7 EV is a direct response to our European customers who have been waiting for a zero-emission variant of our latest terminal tractor platform. We have focused on combining the practical robustness of the TT7 series with a sustainable drivetrain. It is a reliable and efficient solution for those looking to reduce their carbon footprint without compromising on the essential power and visibility required for daily operations.”
