Hino PH releases all-new 200 Series

Hino Motors Philippines (HMP) has launched the 200 Series to increase its commercial vehicle offerings in the country.

In a statement, the Japanese truck manufacturer’s local arm expressed firm confidence that the aforementioned model is the “ideal entry-level option for entrepreneurs seeking reliable transport for their businesses.

The all-new Hino 200 Series is powered by the 2,755cc Toyota 1GD-FTV engine that can deliver a maximum churn of nearly 142 horsepower and 300Nm of pulling power.

The all-new Hino 200 Series are offered in 315 and 415 options that are optimized for loading and can be used inside narrow streets. The two trims have a gross vehicle weight (GVW) of 3,490 and 3,800 kilograms respectively.

HMP said that the all-new Hino 200 315— being one of the largest vehicles in the N1 category — “maximizes business efficiency as it falls within B2 driver’s license restriction.” 

“Such category accommodates operating vehicles up to 3,500 kilograms GVW for the carriage of goods. With this, business owners can address operational disruptions from the lack of drivers for vehicles requiring higher license restrictions,” the company noted.

Further, the model provides a 4.7-meter turning radius, and a rear chassis height of 705 millimeters.

Aside from being fit to meet the transport needs of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSME), the all-new Hino 200 Series ensures safety as it is also equipped with SRS airbags, anti-lock braking system (ABS), and vehicle stability control (VSC) as options.

Moreover, the truck guarantees comfort as it is also fitted with ergonomic seats, double wishbone front suspensions, stabilizer to reduce body roll and a generous cabin space.
