Kalmar announced the launch of the TT7 series terminal tractor. Specifically designed for the demanding requirements of customers in the European market, the TT7 series is a robust and reliable solution for port terminal, yard, distribution, and logistics operations.

The Kalmar TT7 has been re-engineered based on extensive customer feedback. Its heavy-duty galvanised steel frame and reinforced axles maximise structural integrity and corrosion resistance even in extreme temperatures. To simplify maintenance, the front bumper is constructed in three sections for easier repair and replacement.

There are three models available at launch:

• TT770  70,000 kg GCW with a 20,000 kg lifting capacity
• TT785  85,000 kg GCW with a 28,000 kg lifting capacity
• TT795  95,000 kg GCW with a 32,000 kg lifting capacity

In 2026 the range will be expanded to include a heavy-duty variant and a fully electric variant. 

The TT7 series cabin is designed with ergonomics and safety at its core. Key features include:

• Superior visibility: One of the widest front view windscreens in the industry, paired with large rear windows and convex side mirrors for exceptional visibility.
• Ergonomic controls: The digital display screen and control panel are complemented with an adjustable steering column and a steering knob for easier manoeuvering.
• Enhanced comfort: Improved cabin suspension, climate control (including air conditioning and heating) and a rotatable seat ensure a comfortable working environment for operators.
• Performance and safety built in: Operators can monitor key performance metrics – including transmission and hydraulic data – using the electronic control system. The TT7 also includes LED lighting, a neutral start switch and a 3-point contact system.

The TT7 is delivered with all the necessary hardware and software for connection to MyKalmar INSIGHT – a performance management tool that allows customers to turn data into actionable, impactful insights.

Thor Brenden, President, Terminal Tractors: “The Kalmar TT7 will enable port and terminal operators to take on the toughest cargo and container handling challenges with confidence. We have listened closely to our customers and used their valuable feedback to develop a terminal tractor offering that is robust, reliable and efficient as well as being comfortable to operate and easy to maintain.”
