Preparing for Harvest

Bright lights, quiet operations an no diesel fumes. Whether you're just starting or already in full swing, your MK-V is here to make your operations quiet, diesel-free, and more efficient by hauling bin trailers or powering lights.

Going electric with your MK-V means a more affordable harvest, cutting diesel costs, and providing a safer environment for your operators—all while delivering better quality grapes.
