Environmental accountability is a key feature of corporate decision making at Toyota and they are proud to be the first and only maker to offer UL-listed, EPA- and CARB-certified Compressed Natural Gas powered lift trucks. Yet one more reason they remain a leader within the industry.

Industry Leader in Safety
Toyota's lift vehicles offer enhanced durability, visibility, output, ergonomics, and all the foremost safety technology that has made Toyota an industry leader. The company’s System of Active Stability, also called “SAS”, helps limit the possibility of mishaps and accidental injuries, and increasing productivity levels while minimizing the likelihood of product and equipment breakage.
System Active Stability senses numerous conditions that may lead to lateral insecurity and likely lateral overturn. When any of those factors are detected, SAS immediately engages the Swing Lock Cylinder to steady the rear axle. This transitions the lift truck’s stability footprint from triangular in shape to rectangular, providing a major increase in stability which substantially reduces the likelihood of an accident from a lateral overturn. The Active Mast Function Controller or the Active Control Rear Stabilizer also aids to avoid injuries or accidents while adding strength.
The SAS systems were initially used on the 7-Series internal combustion lift trucks which were put on the market in 1999. These systems helped propel Toyota into the lead for industry safety standards. Now, SAS is adopted on virtually every new internal combustion models and is standard equipment for the new 8-Series. There are more than 100,000 SAS-equipped lift trucks in action, exceeding 450 million hours combined. The increased population of SAS-equipped vehicles in the field, along with mandatory worker training, overturn fatalities across all models have decreased by 13.6% since 1999. Also, there have been an overall 35.5% reduction in industry wide collisions, loss of control, falls and overturn from a lift truck for the same period.
