Dieci is making its DTS telematics system standard equipment across its telehandler lineup, eliminating it as an optional extra. The move marks a shift in industry practice, where competitors like Haulotte and JLG still charge separately for remote monitoring and fleet management systems.

The decision puts pressure on rivals to follow suit or justify their telematics pricing – a system that typically adds £800 to £1,500 per machine as an option.
