Toyota 8FGCU25 expert review

Reviewed by Rizwan R. on September 2, 2025

Overview

The 8FGCU25 is a 2.25 t (5,000 lb) cushion-tire forklift with standard 24 in (610 mm) load center. It is powered by a 4-cylinder Toyota 4Y-ECS LP engine (48 hp), and packages tight turning, compact dimensions, and build-in safety systems.

Pros High capacity in a tight 1.065 m (41.9 in) wide chassis.
System of Active Stability and OPSS improve safety indoors.

Cons At 3,240 kg (~8,000 lb), floor loading needs checking.
LP engine needs fuel setup and safety checks, not as simple as electric.

Performance & Efficiency

Reaches ~17 km/h (10.6 mph) loaded, lift speed around 38 m/min (124 ft/min). Strong uptime with Toyota telematics and long service intervals.

In Comparison

Compared to the 8FGCU20 (1.8 t) or 8FGCU15, you get 25 % more payload. It trades space and power against the 8FGCU30 (3 t), but stays compact.

Verdict

Versatile, steady, and familiar—the 8FGCU25 is a solid choice for warehouses needing a reliable 2.25 t LP cushion-tire forklift. Skip it if moving to electric fleets or ultra-narrow aisles.
