The Japanese commercial vehicle manufacturer, Hino, has expanded its 300 Series Built to Go (BTG) in Australia to provide light-duty truck operators with more options.

Daniel Petrovski, Hino Australia, Product and Strategy Manager said: “The Hino BTG range provides high quality, durable and convenient drive-away solutions for car and truck-licenced buyers who require the reliability of a Hino truck with the quality and peace of mind that a Hino Genuine body offers.”
In July, Hino launched its new 300 Series range. According to Petrovski, the expansion of the BTG range ensures Australian operators to choose from a broader range of heavy vehicles while avoiding delivery lead times that typically occur when specifying custom-built truck bodies.
The 2020 BTG 300 Series range is reported to offer more variants including new Crew Cab models and a new range of Alloy Tray models.

Petrovski said: “The superior floor and ladder rack ratings demonstrate the strength of the Hino Genuine aluminium tray.”
“The 616 and 617 TradeAce and Alloy Tray variants have a four-tonne floor rating, while the new 721 models have a massive six-tonne floor rating.”
All Hino Genuine aluminium trays are constructed from high-grade aluminium extrusion, which is both light and strong, maximising payloads while providing a durable tray body.
Every Hino aluminium tray features a full-size headboard, easy fold and removable drop sides and large rope rails, tray fittings such as latches and hinges all made of zinc-plated steel, and mudguards use heavy-duty aluminium chequer plate.

Another new addition to the BTG range is the 300 Series Crew Cab variants, which are available in both the Alloy Tray and TradeAce configuration.
“With an impressive 205hp and 600Nm of torque when matched to the six-speed double overdrive transmission, the 721 Alloy Tray and TradeAce variants are available in both Single and Crew Cab variants, and can be rated at a Gross Vehicle Mass (GVM) of either 4,495kg on a car licence or 6,500kg on a light rigid truck licence,” Hino said in a statement.
“The Hino Alloy Tray and TradeAce BTG models are designed to be true hard-working trucks that provide several options for car-licenced customers.”
