How to read this comparison
- A highlighted value means that model leads on that specification, and only where a higher or lower figure is objectively better. Capacity and lift height are marked; wheelbase and tyre size are not, because neither direction is universally better.
- A value is only marked when every model in the comparison published that figure. We never mark a leader against missing data.
- We do not name an overall winner. Which machine is right depends on your aisles, your shift pattern and your energy prices, which no specification table knows.
- Capacity figures are only comparable at the same load centre. Check the load centre row before comparing capacities directly.
Frequently asked questions
Which has the higher lift capacity, the Hyster H2.5A6 and Yale GLP25VX?
Hyster H2.5A6: 2,500 kg. Yale GLP25VX: 2,500 kg.
What is the main difference between the Hyster H2.5A6 and Yale GLP25VX?
Hyster H2.5A6 offers 650 mm more maximum lift height than the next model in this comparison. Yale GLP25VX offers 117 mm less outside turning radius than the next model in this comparison. Yale GLP25VX offers 90 mm more free lift than the next model in this comparison.
Do the Hyster H2.5A6 and Yale GLP25VX use the same fuel type?
No. Hyster H2.5A6: Diesel. Yale GLP25VX: LPG. Running costs are therefore not directly comparable without entering your own energy prices.
