8FG / 8FD

Toyota's signature stability system. An onboard computer continuously watches the truck — locking the rear axle on turns, controlling mast tilt speed at height, and synchronising the steering wheel to the rear wheels. Stable trucks lift more, faster, more often.

• Active Control Rear Stabiliser — locks rear-axle swing during turns
• Active Mast Function Controller — limits forward tilt by lift height & load
• Active Mast Tilt-Speed Control — slows mast at height to prevent spills
• Active Steering Synchronizer — wheel angle always matches rear wheels

A switch sensor in the operator's seat detects whether the driver is in position. Step out of the seat and travel power and load-handling stop instantly. Zero training required — it just works.

• Travel interrupt when operator leaves the seat
• Lift, lower and tilt all halted
• Key-lift interlock — no lift-down unless the key is on
• Note: OPS does not apply the brakes; standard parking process still applies

The 8 Series 3.5 – 8 t models pair a new 2-stator torque converter with Load-Sensing Power Steering (LSPS) — adjusting hydraulic flow to the actual rear-axle load instead of running flat-out. The result is 20% less fuel on the 8FG45 and 10% less on the 8FD45 compared to the previous generation.

• 2-stator torque converter — optimal drive power, no gear-change
• Load-Sensing Power Steering on 3.5 – 8 t models
• Eco-mode (optional) — restricts acceleration for further savings
• Engine Auto-Stop (optional) — kills the engine if you leave the seat with parking brake on

Designed from the workplace perspective: small-diameter steering wheel, optimised display position, angled backrest stay — all giving the operator a clear view of the fork tips and the area around the truck. Comfortable operators are accurate operators.

• Optimal mast width & hose layout — clear forward view
• Swivel seat (17.5° right for reverse, 20° left for exit) — optional
• Rear-pillar assist grip with horn button — optional
• Cabin with folding door (1 – 3.5 t) and full steel cabin (3.5 – 8 t) — optional

Toyota's enhanced ceramic-filter system traps near 100% of black-smoke particulates. Important for indoor diesel work, mining-supply yards, and anywhere emissions matter to your customer.
