Hino is participating in the GIIAS 2025 automotive exhibition, showcasing its latest commercial vehicle, the Hino 300 136 MLDR truck.
KatadataOTO – Truck manufacturer, Hino Motor Sales Indonesia (HMSI) presents the Hino 300 Series MLDR at the GIIAS 2025 event.
On this occasion, Hino also displayed several other models, namely the Hino 500 FM 280 JDR, Hino 300 136 HD, and Hino RM 280 ABS.
The presence of the Hino 300 136 Series is expected to add more options for consumers in the commercial vehicle segment.
Furthermore, the medium truck also aims to meet the need for vehicles with a large carrying capacity.
This can help minimize the potential for users to carry loads exceeding the proper dimensions and capacity.
According to Hino, the truck was developed with the zero Over Dimension Over Load (ODOL) policy in mind.
“We are confident this model is a smart and innovative solution that will enhance business operations and support sustainable growth in the future,” said Takashi Muto, President Director of PT HMIS at ICE BSD, Tangerang on Wednesday (23/07).
The Hino 300 136 MDLR truck has a capable capacity and a six-meter cargo length with a gross weight of 8.25 tons.
These specifications are claimed to be an ideal solution for transporting goods with efficient volume and without violating operational standards.
For your information, the Hino booth at GIIAS 2025 is located in hall 1A at ICE BSD, Tangerang. There are a number of activities being held at the booth area.
For example, the Total Support Corner offers after-sales services as well as training for commercial vehicle drivers.
Then there is the Digital Experience simulation, namely Hino Connect, which facilitates the operation of commercial vehicles when in use.
Then, a demonstration of the MyHino application, which offers accessibility to service information, bookings, catalogs, and Hino's vehicle lineup.
The series of activities and Hino's vehicle lineup are in line with the theme applied at the booth during the exhibition, namely 'Hino for Indonesia, together towards the future'.
