certified ultimate advantage
Certified Ultimate Dealers have changed the way they do business for Sales, Parts, Service and overall support to be able to deliver the Ultimate Ownership Experience at every level. Take a look at what it takes to meet the premier standards of Hino Dealerships, and what this means to you.
Inventory
Certified Ultimate Dealerships are committed to carrying inventory at a level right for their market-that means when you need it, they'll have it.
COMMUNICATION
Sales associates are held to the highest standards in the industry. Certified Ultimate Sales professionals work to make sure you have the information you need to make a profitable business decision.
TRAINING
It's one thing to own the most advanced engineering in light- and medium-duty trucks, but it's another to get the most out of it! Certified Ultimate Dealers are trained to get you up and running with leading industry services like Hino Edge.
INVENTORY
Certified Ultimate Dealers are required to carry more inventory in parts for top level service and repair/replace items. Above the industry average. That means it's in stock when you need it, and not on the other side of the country.
DELIVERY
In the event that you're not able to be at the dealership to pick up, your Certified Ultimate dealer will deliver it-for free.
RAPID EVALUATION
An evaluation of your trucks means you know where you stand from the get-go. Certified Ultimate Dealerships are focused on getting you the information you need to make decisions and back on the road in the shortest possible time.
TRAINING
The Hino Master Elite training program is one of the toughest qualifications for service staff in the industry. Certified Ultimate service teams are trained in Rapid Evaluation, Hino's highest level of training.
COMMUNICATION
Information is power, and information in service means you get back on the road sooner. Certified Ultimate service teams feed data to Hino Edge as they perform services, so you're notified in real-time and know exactly where you stand every step of the way. Now you can make decisions on resource allocation faster here than anywhere else.

drivetrain
Cummins Engine
Turbocharger
Cummins' single VGT is a simple and elegantly designed turbo that can dynamically adjust a single sliding nozzle for better air/fuel mixing. Additionally, the VGT provides engine braking without the need to incorporate a separate engine brake.
Single Module After Treatment
Combines high efficiency SCR, a redesigned dosing unit and a DPF into a single flow-through unit. This single pass-through design optimizes exhaust flow, and the compact packaging helps maintain hotter, consistent temperatures across the unit for better NOx reduction and optimized fuel efficiency while helping to minimize periodic maintenance.
Common Rail Fuel Injection
Delivers superior performance, even in lower engine rpm speed ranges. Enables multiple injection events per cycle for improved fuel efficiency with quieter, smoother operation.
Allison Transmission
Allison transmissions 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. It doesn't end there though: We're also standing behind our Allison transmissions with a full 5-year, unlimited mile warranty... standard.
Meritor Axles
With more than 100 years of axle manufacturing experience, cutting-edge technologies, and proven reliability and performance, Meritor has become the world's largest independent manufacturer of commercial truck axles for a broad range of vehicle applications. That's why you'll find front and rear axles from Meritor on Hino trucks—they are quite simply the best money can buy.
Dana Spicer Driveshafts
Dana Spicer drive shafts are the preferred brand in the U.S. by OEMs, fleet specifiers, dealership sales, and replacement parts professionals.
Now enhanced to offer even greater torque, durability, and savings, SPL products offer 70 percent more power density than its nearest competitor and a 40 percent increase in bearing life.
Interior
Distinguished by its rich design and automotive grade quality finish, the Hino XL7 and XL8 interior is easy on the eyes [styling and ergonomically] and your back. The standard air-ride cab and driver's seat put layers of air between you and the rough road. Included premium features like hands-free Bluetooth calling and audio, steering wheel controls, a large LCD information center display, cruise control, and air conditioning enhance operator effectiveness.
