We explain why Japanese know-how and innovative parts management set new standards. Opting for a Hino is a sensible choice for your operations, even when used. Intrigued by the little-known advantages of these unusual vehicles and their direct influence on your road safety?

Robust chassis

The chassis of Hino trucks is tough! No wonder: it’s built from high-performance steel, directly inspired by Japanese expertise. This design ensures a long service life, which is a definite advantage over other brands. But what materials are used in this chassis?

This sturdy chassis offers considerable advantages for professionals operating in demanding environments such as construction or long-distance logistics. To find out more, don’t hesitate to contact us. By the way, what kind of weight can this chassis support?

To illustrate this, let’s look at a few concrete examples:

• Construction sites: The Hino L6’s high-performance steel chassis excels particularly well at transporting construction materials. It easily withstands the heavy weights and tough conditions encountered on construction sites.
• Urban deliveries: the Hino S4 and S5 series, with their rugged yet maneuverable chassis, are ideal for transporting parcels and goods around town.
• Special transport : The Hino L7, with its low-profile chassis and automatic transmission, has been designed specifically for transporting beverages and other heavy loads requiring special configuration.
• Heavy-duty towing: The high-power Hino L6L with its reinforced chassis and high towing capacity is perfectly suited to heavy-duty towing missions.
• Intensive use: The Hino 358 with its 120,000 psi chassis and consolidated axles is designed for extreme conditions such as transporting construction materials or tankers.

In short, the robust chassis of Hino trucks translates into great versatility and reliability in a wide range of professional applications.

Cummins B6.7 and L9 engines

The Cummins B6.7 engine powering Hino’s L-series trucks has been designed to deliver outstanding fuel efficiency while meeting the most demanding environmental standards. This Hino-Cummins alliance is a real asset in terms of quality and reliability. But then… what’s the average fuel consumption of this engine?

Clearly, the robustness of the Cummins B6.7 engine is particularly advantageous for professionals, since it drastically reduces downtime – a significant economic benefit. Japanese know-how goes hand in hand with financial gains, and what’s more… what’s the recommended interval between overhauls?

This table compares the key features of the Cummins B6.7 and L9 engines used in Hino trucks, highlighting their differences in terms of warranty, fuel compatibility, power, torque and emissions treatment.

Allison transmission

The Allison transmission is like an orchestra conductor for your Hino truck. It ensures smooth gear changes and adapts intelligently to load variations. Particularly appreciated by seasoned truckers. But by the way, how does this system improve safety when climbing mountains?

By working closely with the engine, this transmission enables Hino trucks to consume less fuel. A powerful economic argument. And with good reason: it manages fuel consumption with great precision, while ensuring consistent performance. Don’t hesitate to contact us for more details. What concrete benefits can we expect?

High-performance braking system

Hino trucks benefit from a braking system that uses both hydraulic and pneumatic technologies. This system reduces stopping distances, a real safety advantage. But what happens when the truck is fully loaded? This is a crucial question for the professionals who use these vehicles.

Let’s take a look at maintenance: it’s simplified thanks to a modular design and genuine parts. This approach also enhances the value of the Hino after-sales network, and as Hino parts remain relatively accessible, the question arises: where can I find certified original parts for reliable, long-lasting repairs?

Hino Insight Fleet Management

Hino stands out as a benchmark in automotive connectivity for its trucks. This is made possible by real-time monitoring and maintenance anticipation functionalities. Let’s see what key indicators we’re monitoring? Singularly, Hino has set up a system to monitor a number of key parameters and anticipate problems before they arise.

Reducing logistics costs by optimizing routes has a direct impact on decision-makers. But Hino trucks represent an investment. In concrete terms, what return can you expect over three years?

Comparison

When choosing your Hino truck, you need to consider a number of factors: your budget, your daily use and the length of time you intend to use it. Requirements vary radically from regional haulage to haulage and mining. If your fleet operates in an urban environment, the Hino L6 is the right choice for city traffic. To see all the models and find the one that’s right for you, feel free to explore the list of Hino truck models. Which one to choose for an urban fleet? What about guarantees when you take out a long-term contract?

This table compares the different Hino truck series according to two important criteria: the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and their usual areas of application: these key elements enable you to choose the model that best matches what you want to do with it. In concrete terms, this table becomes an invaluable tool for identifying the equipment most in line with your requirements.

A reinforced chassis, Cummins engine and Hino Insight fleet management – three key assets to boost your operations. Don’t procrastinate any longer, because Hino trucks will clearly transform your daily life and give you a significant edge on the road, so find out how without further ado.
