The HVY Forklift appears in Grand Theft Auto 5 and Grand Theft Auto 4. The Forklift is powered by a 5-tonne engine and is a single-speed vehicle that runs on a gas cylinder/canister. It moves at quite a slow speed and is very fragile to crashes or gunfire. The gas canister on the back, if shot, can explode and destroy the vehicle as well. If it tips to the side, the Forklift can no longer be brought back up to its upright position on its wheels due to its weight distribution.
Design
The Forklift is a yellow Utility vehicle used to help lift up boxes or trailers in industrial areas or factories. The design of the Forklift is just like any traditional Forklift with the lift at the front that can be moved upwards and downwards.
It appears to be heavily influenced by the Yale GLP060VX Forklift model. It is powered by a gas canister that is either LPG or just Propane gas.
