Story

The company traces its roots to the founding of the Tokyo Gas Industrial Company

in 1910 In 1910
Chiyoda Gas
Co.
was created and competed fiercely with the incumbent Tokyo Gas Company
for users of gas lighting.
Tokyo Gas Industry was a parts supplier for Chiyoda Gas, but it was defeated in 1912 and merged with Tokyo Gas. Having lost its largest client, Tokyo Gas Industry Co. expanded its product line to include electronic components and renamed itself Tokyo Gas and Electric Industry
(東京瓦斯電気工業), TG&E and often abbreviated as
Gasuden
.
He produced his first automobile in 1917, a TGE "A-Type" truck. In 1937, TG&E merged its automobile division into Automotive Industry
Ltd.
and Kyodo Kokusan K.K.
to form
Tokyo Automobile Industry Co., Ltd.
, with TG&E as a shareholder.
Four years later, the company changed its name to Diesel Motor Industry Co., Ltd.
which would eventually become
Isuzu Motors Limited
.

The following year (1942), the new venture Hino Heavy Industry Co., Ltd.

originated from Diesel Motor Industry Co., Ltd., and thus the name Hino was born. During World War II, Hino produced the Type 1 Ho-Ha half-track and the Type 1 Ho-Ki armored personnel carrier for the Imperial Japanese Army. After the end of World War II, the company was forced to cease production of large diesel engines for marine applications, and with the signing of the agreement, the company dropped the word "Heavy" in its name and formally concentrated on the heavy-duty semi-trailer, bus and diesel engine market as Hino Industry Co. , Ltd. The company takes its name from the location of its headquarters in Hino. city ​​(日野市, Hino-shi) in Tokyo Prefecture.

To focus its marketing on customers, the company added the name "Diesel" in 1948 and became Hino Diesel Industry Co., Ltd. The TH10 was unveiled, powered by the all-new 7-litre DS10 engine. diesel. At eight tons, it was significantly larger than existing Japanese trucks, which were rarely produced with payloads greater than 6,000 kg (13,230 lb).[5]

Italian stylist Giovanni Michelotti modernized the Contessa line in 1964 with a 1300 cc engine. Equipped with two SU type carburetors, it developed 60 hp. (44 kW) in the sedan and 70 hp. (51 kW) in coupe version. However, Hino very quickly stopped producing private cars in 1967 after joining the Toyota group. In 1963, the Hamura Plant began operations and focused entirely on the production of trucks and buses.

Hino trucks are also assembled in Portugal and Canada.[6]

In 2022, Hino and Volkswagen Truck and Bus (later renamed Traton) announced a wide-ranging strategic partnership for activities including procurement, technology and logistics. In November 2022, they established a procurement joint venture called Hino and Traton Global Procurement, 51% of which is owned by Traton and 49% by Hino.[7]

DESIRE TO TECHNOLOGIES ADVANCED REQUIREMENTS OF THE ERA

We have a forward-looking vision for the trucks and buses that will transport goods and passengers in the future - a future of safe and efficient logistics and transport in harmony with the environment. By introducing advanced environmental technologies, we are trying to move towards the practical implementation of this vision.

In 1991, HINO was the first to mass produce hybrid vehicles based on a diesel engine and an electric motor, which reduce harmful emissions and save fuel. Developing this technology, in 2003 the company launched the HINO 300 Series Hybrid compact hybrid truck. The line of hybrid models is constantly growing. Hybrid systems are used on medium-sized trucks, large route buses and, since 2008, on large tourist buses. Looking ahead, we have created a bus equipped with a TOYOTA fuel battery to demonstrate the effectiveness of using fuel batteries to power large vehicles.

In addition, HINO has developed and puts into practice advanced technologies to ensure the safety of not only bus drivers and their passengers, but also the safety of other vehicles, as well as pedestrians. An example of such developments is the “ASV” project (Advanced Safety Vehicle = Vehicle with an advanced safety system).

Technical characteristics of the car

The truck's transmission is equipped with a powerful and functional Aisin gearbox; some models are equipped with gearboxes from the Isuzu manufacturer. Both engines are identical in modification, therefore they use the same clutch. This is a single-disc system with a unique hydraulic drive. Among other equally important positive technical characteristics that the Hino truck is equipped with, the following can be noted:

The truck has a crankcase made of aluminum, which ensures ideal bearing movement and guarantees optimal durability of the built-in parts.

Optimal fuel consumption is based on the combination of a powerful engine, a 6-speed gearbox, and a new gearbox.

The advantageous feature of the gearbox is the presence of a modern synchronizer. The process of switching high-speed gears is carried out using durable cables.
