Advanced safety in Hino trucks: protecting drivers and goods
OneGuardACTIVE™ brake assist system
Hino equips its trucks with the OneGuardACTIVE™ system, an emergency braking assistance device. This system spots obstacles and intervenes automatically to reduce the risk of collision.
OneGuardACTIVE™ protects drivers and other road users with rapid intervention in critical situations. Sensors detect sudden slowdowns and trigger emergency braking if the driver fails to react in time. This system reduces the risk of fender-benders at moderate speeds.
OneLaneALERT™: constant vigilance on the road
The OneLaneALERT™ system constantly monitors road markings. In the event of an unmarked deviation, a visual and audible signal alerts the driver to correct his trajectory.
OneLaneALERT™ prevents drifts linked to drowsiness or distraction. A front sensor locates lane boundaries and detects unexpected exits. Early warning gives the driver time to react before the situation gets out of hand.
Multi-angle camera systems for optimum visibility
Hino trucks incorporate a network of cameras to eliminate blind spots. Lenses on the sides and rear provide a complete view around the vehicle.
Cameras enhance manoeuvring and freeway safety. Wide angles show critical areas around the truck, while the interior display gives a clear picture even in limited conditions. Traditional mirrors give way to more aerodynamic systems.
Integrating safety systems for comprehensive protection
Hino safety technologies cooperate to wrap the truck in intelligent protection. OneGuardACTIVE™, OneLaneALERT™ and cameras share data to act in concert.
Integrated approach protects vehicle, driver and cargo. Cross alerts enhance safety in all situations. Discover the 5 advantages of Hino trucks, especially when it comes to active safety.
