The Toyota 8FGCU25 are high-performance cushion tire forklift designed specifically for indoor material handling in warehouses, distribution centers, and manufacturing environments. These model combine Toyota’s legendary reliability with compact maneuverability and powerful internal combustion engines to handle demanding applications on smooth surfaces. The Toyota 40-8FGCU25 is powered by the Kubota WG2503 engine, a robust 2.5-liter gasoline/LPG engine known for fuel efficiency and consistent performance. It’s ideal for operations that require flexibility in fuel choice and low emissions within confined spaces. The Toyota 50-8FGCU25, equipped with the Toyota 4Y US LPG engine, delivers proven power, durability, and low-maintenance operation. This model is designed for heavier-duty cycles and offers enhanced lifting capability without sacrificing responsiveness or control.
Both forklifts feature Toyota’s System of Active Stability (SAS) for advanced safety, along with ergonomic controls and operator-focused design. Their cushion tires allow for tight turning radii, making them excellent choices for navigating narrow aisles and high-density storage facilities. Together, the 40-8FGCU25 and 50-8FGCU25 represent Toyota’s commitment to quality, performance, and safety in the indoor lift truck category.
