The Bobcat G70S-7 is a 15,500 lb four-wheel LPG pneumatic-tire forklift and the top of Bobcat’s LPG lineup. Its 93.8 hp engine and Shift Pro-Tek transmission allow shifting on the fly at up to 5 mph, a real advantage in quick-shuttle yard work.
At 96.7 in overhead guard height and a 135 in turning radius, it’s built for the heaviest steel-service, building-materials, and concrete-products loads that still make sense on LPG power rather than diesel.
The operator space is designed for comfort at this capacity: a roomy compartment, optimized pedal positions, and an adjustable steering column and seat.
Choose the G70S-7 when your heaviest recurring load runs close to 7.75 tons and LPG fits your fuel infrastructure better than diesel. Tell us your load and application, and we will confirm the fit.
