The compact entry into the RX 70 range
The RX 70-16 is the lightest diesel model in STILL’s RX 70 family. It is rated for 1,600 kg at a 500 mm load centre, runs on a 28 kW VW BXT engine with diesel-electric transmission and turns within 1,926 mm. The standard telescopic mast lifts 3,230 mm with a lowered height of 2,160 mm; the datasheet also lists HiLo and triplex masts, the tallest triplex reaching 7,870 mm. Forks are 40 × 80 × 800 mm and the truck weighs 2,706 kg.
At 2,975 mm long and 1,099 mm wide, with 2,117 mm to the top of the overhead guard, the RX 70-16 fits small loading bays, merchants’ yards and production sites where loads stay light but the work happens outdoors. Superelastic tyres cope with rough surfaces, and top speed is 22 km/h laden or unladen. If part of your work takes place in semi-enclosed areas, an LPG version (RX 70-16 T) is also available. We can help you choose the mast and equipment for your site.
- Compact diesel: 1,600 kg capacity with a 1,926 mm turning radius.
- 28 kW VW engine: diesel-electric transmission and a 22 km/h top speed.
- Mast choice: 3,230 mm standard lift, triplex masts up to 7,870 mm.

Why choose the RX 70-16
Practical points taken from the VDI 2198 datasheet.
Small footprint
2,975 mm overall length and 1,099 mm width make positioning in yards and bays easy.
Tight turning
A 1,926 mm turning radius and a 3,523 mm working aisle (1,000 × 1,200 pallet crossways) help in confined spaces.
Superelastic tyres
Puncture-proof tyres suit uneven outdoor surfaces.
Diesel or LPG
The RX 70-16 T variant runs on LPG for work that moves into semi-enclosed areas.
