Niftylift self-propelled elevating work platforms have working heights ranging from 10m (33ft) to over 28m (92ft). All are compact and manoeuvrable and can be driven from the platform in any boom position. This saves time and improves efficiency. With ‘Narrow’ and 4WD chassis options available* Niftylift self-propelled elevating work platforms are ideal for industrial or construction environments. Easy to use proportional controls make Nifty self-propelled cherry pickers simple to operate. Features such as telescopic booms, fly-booms and platform rotation maximize their effectiveness on any task.
Power options available on Nifty self propelled cherry pickers include electric, battery, mains, petrol, diesel. We also have ‘Bi-Energy’ (e.g. battery & diesel) which combines the benefits of two power sources on the same machine and Hybrid, our most efficient, economical and environmentally conscious power source.

Niftylift HR28 Hybrid 4×4
The Height Rider 28 Hybrid Four-Wheel-Drive (HR28 Hybrid 4×4) is one of a new generation of environmentally conscious work platforms from Niftylift. Combining advanced power-source technology with efficient 4×4, it delivers outstanding performance from a compact and low-weight design.
On Diesel, the HR28’s revolutionary Hybrid system can automatically utilise its electric motor to boost power whenever needed. This allows the HR28 Hybrid 4×4 to operate with a smaller engine, reducing fuel consumption and its exhaust purification system then further reduces CO/NOx, particulates, and noise emissions.
The HR28 Hybrid 4×4 can also operate on battery alone, making it ideal for indoor, quiet or clean applications. Diesel Re-Gen recharges the batteries without a mains power source and a fast charge is achieved whenever the machine is idle and the engine is left running.
