HINO Motors the Japanese vehicle manufacturer has produced a medium truck, The Hino Ranger. If we talk about Hino automatic transmission, it is the only truck in Japan which offers this. Lock-up in five ratios the ‘intelligent’ HINO automatic offers a fuel-saving torque converter. The driver can easily adopt the driving style of automatic transmission. The roots of HINO Company can be traced back to the setting up of Tokyo Gas Industry Company in 1910. The Model TGE "A-Type" truck was the first motor vehicle they manufactured in 1917.



February 1984, was the year when introduction of first generation Fuso, as a successor to the FK series, took place. In February 1988, The Mitsubishi Fuso FM series was introduced. The parent company Daimler AG has manufactured the engine. Its engine is appropriate for long distance driving as low noise and little vibration has been found in the engine. Though, they are comfortable to ride in. Six different wheelbase lengths and tiny front airbags provide us the best vehicle we can look for according to our needs.

 

Better Fuel Economy

HINO ranger Series offers the five-cylinder engine, horsepower is rated at 220, 240 and 260. It provides improved fuel economy, torque and gives more power. Apart from decreasing greenhouse gas emissions, it also gives better fuel economy due to its upgraded fuel mapping and a variable nozzle turbocharger (VNT). To contest practical environment, in standard cab models of Hino we can choose from manual, automated manual or fully automatic transmissions. When it is about high engine capacity and greater towing capacity Hino Ranger wins the game. FUSO over the years have worked on fuel consumption and comes with 117 HP to 175 HP engine technologies. It is mostly available in lower engine capacity. Hence, when you look for medium size truck Mitsubishi Fuso is a great option.


High Capacity

Mitsubishi FUSO cab deals in six-speed Duonic automatic dual-clutch transmission. Shifting is smooth and no shock or torque disturbance is caused by shifting. The ECO mode is given to the drivers that in crowded traffic conditions can quickly up-shift the truck. The HVAC system is being given with high-capacity confirms year-round luxury. It is designed in such manner that for a longer period of time, you can do business with cab, easily and adequately. If we take a look at HINO trucks we find out that medium-sized trucks have been manufactured by HINO motors since long. They have average capacity and can be used for transportation purpose, moving goods from one place to another.


Safety Features

The driver can easily control the vehicle as HINO Ranger security control is designed in such manner that stability while drive is considered. While passing on a curve, it will help you avoid side skids and vehicle will be stabilized. When a slip is caused by the vehicle, respective wheels meet the automatic braking system and for the protection of the vehicle, a contraction is caused by the engine power.

 

Loud and optical alerts for speeding are offered by Mitsubishi FUSO dynamic Mobileye that is an alternate feature. Mobileye is also useful for vehicle collisions, possible pedestrian and highway separation. Recently, Mobileye had gone through accurate testing with FUSO fleet and it was proven in that test that risky driver behavior can be reduced by Mobileye, making it one of the best safety system in FUSO vehicles.

 

Both vehicles have their merits and demerits. If HINO is providing better fuel economy along with other features, the higher capacity with other important features is found in FUSO vehicles. Ideally, it depends on the having a clear perspective on the purpose and requirements for buying the truck.
