Hino Trucks, which has received Certification of Conformity to the 2010 emissions regulations from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the California Air Resources Board for all of its engine ratings, announced a new standard engine warranty of 5 years/250,000 miles. In addition to the standard items covered by Hino Trucks’ past engine warranty, the new coverage has been expanded to cover key components such as fuel injectors, the fuel injection supply pump and the turbocharger.

Hino Trucks’ proprietary J-08 Series engine has been recognized by J.D. Power and Associates for two consecutive years for Highest in Customer Satisfaction with Conventional Medium Duty Engines and Transmissions. “Our engines have been recognized for quality, durability and reliability,” says Bob McDowell, senior vice president of sales and customer support. “We are confident in our product, and we are willing to stand behind it.”

Hino Trucks is using selective catalytic reduction to meet the 2010 EPA emissions requirement. “In addition to meeting the emissions requirement, our 2011 model year trucks will see a fuel economy improvement,” says Glenn Ellis, vice president of marketing and dealer operations. “By choosing Hino Trucks, our customers are choosing the cleanest highest-rated engine in the conventional medium-duty market.”

Hino Trucks is taking its message on the road by hosting a multicity dealer tour showcasing the 2011 lineup throughout the month of October. Hino Truck dealers now are taking delivery of the 2011 trucks and are offering an introductory low APR finance rate through Hino Trucks’ preferred financial partners, Toyota Financial Services and Hitachi Capital America.
