The Bobcat G20C-5 is a 4,000 lb four-wheel LPG pneumatic-tire forklift and the top of Bobcat’s small-capacity outdoor line. It shares the 2.4L LPG engine and 24 in load center with the G15S-5 and G18S-5 below it.
At 124 in overall length and an 85.4 in overhead guard height, it keeps the same maneuverable footprint as its lighter siblings while carrying the most capacity in the family.
Pneumatic tires give it the ground clearance and traction to work gravel yards, unpaved lots, and rough dock aprons, and LPG power means no charging window between shifts.
Choose the G20C-5 when your heaviest recurring load runs close to two tons and you want the most capacity this small-capacity platform offers. Tell us your load and yard conditions, and we will confirm the fit.

G20C-5 FAQs
Is the G20C-5 the same chassis as the G15S-5 and G18S-5?
Yes, all three share the same 2.4L LPG engine, 24 in load center, and 55.1 in wheelbase. The G20C-5 sits at the top of the family at 4,000 lb, the most capacity Bobcat builds on this small-capacity pneumatic platform.
What applications suit the G20C-5 best?
General outdoor yard work, nurseries, small building-materials lots, and mixed indoor-outdoor operations where a 4,000 lb capacity covers most pallet loads without stepping up to a larger, less maneuverable truck.
