The Toyota 40-8FGU25 is equipped with the Kubota WG2503 gasoline/LPG engine, delivering smooth power and efficient fuel performance in mixed-use environments. This model offers a great balance between low emissions and strong lifting capability, making it well-suited for both indoor and outdoor tasks.
The Toyota 50-8FGU25, on the other hand, runs on the Toyota 4Y US LPG engine – renowned for its reliability, easy maintenance, and consistent power output under tough operating conditions. With higher lift capacities and enhanced durability, it is ideal for heavier-duty applications in warehousing, logistics, and manufacturing.
Both forklifts are built with Toyota’s System of Active Stability (SAS) and ergonomic operator features, ensuring safe operation and reduced fatigue throughout the workday. Whether handling pallets in tight warehouse aisles or loading materials outdoors, the 40-8FGU25 and 50-8FGU25 stand out as high-performance workhorses in the Toyota lineup.
