Internal combustion counterbalanced lift trucks
Liquid propane, compressed natural gas, diesel or gasoline can be used to power an internal combustion engine truck. Lift trucks that are powered by gasoline or diesel are usually large trucks meant for outdoor use. They either have pneumatic tires suitable for driving on rough terrain and steep inclines, or cushion tires made of solid rubber suited to driving on floors indoors.

The ITA classifies internal combustion counterbalanced lift trucks with cushion tires as Class 4 trucks. Trucks with pneumatic tires are Class 5.

Liquid propane is usually utilized to fuel indoor lift trucks. These types of trucks have some advantages. They are able to provide consistent power during operation and are capable of achieving higher speeds. They don't need to be refueled as often as lift trucks powered by other sources. Propane cylinders don't take up much space and can be stored anywhere. The cylinders could be switched out quite easily by a qualified operator.

The benefit of internal combustion trucks is that they are easily refueled. The drawbacks are air-pollution and too much noise.
