Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation (FUSO), a subsidiary of Daimler Truck AG, is exhibiting various products and services at the Japan Mobility Show from October 28 to November 5, with a focus on sustainability and innovation.
The highlight of FUSO’s booth is the fully remodelled heavy-duty Super Great truck, which shares the platform with Daimler Truck heavy-duty trucks and is equipped with the 6R30 high-performance 12.8L engine. The new engine improves fuel economy by up to 10% and provides ample traction on long hills and excellent response during acceleration.
FUSO’s Next Generation eCanter, the first all-electric light-duty truck in series production, is also on display, with a variety of body applications, including tipper body with power take-off device (ePTO) and garbage truck configuration.
FUSO and Ample Inc. are presenting the latest eCanter model with a swappable battery module and a swapping station. This innovative technology could revolutionize the way electric trucks are used, by eliminating the need for long charging times.
In addition to its new vehicles, FUSO is also launching a number of new eMobility solutions at JMS. FUSO Green Lease is a leasing program exclusively for the eCanter in Japan, which makes it easier and more affordable for businesses to switch to electric trucks. Truckonnect* is a telematics service for vehicle management and monitoring for FUSO products. It can be used to track vehicle location, fuel consumption, and maintenance needs, helping businesses to improve efficiency and reduce costs.
FUSO’s booth is built around the theme of “Future Together,” and features a building-block motif that symbolizes FUSO’s collaborative approach to innovation. The booth also includes a number of interactive exhibits that showcase FUSO’s latest technologies and solutions.
Overall, the company is showcasing a number of new products and services that are designed to help businesses reduce their environmental impact and operate more efficiently. FUSO is also demonstrating its leadership in the development of electric trucks and eMobility solutions.
The new FUSO Super Great truck is also equipped with a number of advanced safety features, including Active Brake Assist 6 (ABA®6) and Active Side Guard Assist® 2.0, as part of the standard product offering.
FUSO is also offering a variety of new options for the Super Great, such as a new super high roof that provides more interior space and storage, and a new LED headlight configuration that integrates fog lamps and turn lamps into a more consolidated area.
