The Hino 268 continues to deliver the best real world advantages in the industry to truck drivers and fleet owners. In fact, the 268 has earned the reputation of providing the lowest cost of ownership in its class. The outstanding fuel economy, proven reliability and strong residual value make the 268 the ideal truck for pick up and delivery, lease/rental and moving operations.

Turn the steering wheel and see for yourself. The unique design of our steering components gives us a wheel cut of 55, one of the most accommodating in the transportation industry. And our Meritor Easy Steer Technology not only reduces steering effort, but also contributes to long component life. These contributing factors helped earn the 268 the 2010 ATD Truck of the Year distinction. The 268 has helped Hino set a gold standard for moving and delivery trucks, among numerous other applications.

Hino Engine

Award Winning Engines

Hino Engines deliver dependable, fuel efficient power. Hino is recognized worldwide as one of the leading innovators in engine design. Combining high-pressure Common Rail Fuel Injection, Variable Geometry Turbocharger design and cooled EGR with Selective Catalytic Reduction [SCR] for emission control allows optimization of the air/fuel mixture across the entire speed range of the engine.

Turbocharger

VNT turbochargers optimize airflow by changing the turbocharger’s output based on control input from the engine’s electronic control unit. This allows engine designers to more accurately control cylinder pressure and air/fuel ratio. Better control means a more complete burn, resulting in better fuel efficiency and full EPA compliance.

Hino Transmission

Allison Transmissons

Allison Transmission are standard on all conventional Hino Trucks and offer a fully automatic six-speed transmission that provides smooth, seamless full-power shifts to put engine power to the ground in the most fuel efficient way. The result of Allison’s fully automatic transmission is faster acceleration and higher average road speed, which equate to quicker route times throughout the day. That means greater productivity and increased profits for your business.

 

Hino 268 Interior

Cab Design

Strong, Straightforward, Dependable. Here’s a better way to build a cab – high visibility, great comfort and super low noise levels. All-in-all, it’s a great place for a driver to spend the day. With Toyota inspired interior design our cabs offer a complete package of the most necessary features—and then kept it simple and serviceable. Your drivers, technicians and accountants will love it.

Standard A/C and CD

Air conditioning is standard. So is a CD. Tilt and Telescoping steering column? Of course. Cruise control? Got it. Our goal was to make this a great place to spend the day – then make sure it makes business sense. We think you’ll like the combination.

Unprecedented Visibility

We placed the driving position high to gain a wide perspective of the road while also maintaining a good feel for the corners of the hood.
