Hino offers standard reverse camera
New standard camera on 300 Series is waterproof and offers audio functionThe Hino 300 Series has become the first light-duty truck range to feature a standard reversing.
The Hino reverse cameras are ADR-compliant, waterproof and are also infrared night-vision enabled and have a built-in microphone.
Hino says the microphone incorporated in the main camera enables voice instructions to be communicated to the driver, informing them of any hazards which may not be immediately visible.
Hino Australia Manager of Product Strategy Daniel Petrovski says the standard inclusion of the reverse camera on the 300 Series range emphasises the company’s dedication to leading the market in providing the highest levels of safety.
"By making the reverse camera standard equipment on all 300 Series trucks, Hino Australia is meeting the demands of our customers and the needs of Australian light duty truck buyers," Mr Petrovski said.
"Our light-duty trucks are already equipped with cruise control, dual SRS airbags, ultra-narrow A-pillars, ABS brakes and Vehicle Stability Control. Reverse cameras are a logical addition to the standard safety specification.
"In the USA rear-view cameras will be mandatory in all new passenger vehicles by 2018 to help mitigate accidents that occur while reversing. Our decision to fit rear-view cameras to the 300 Series is a positive step in ensuring that Hino is at the forefront of safety developments in the Australian commercial vehicle market," he said.
Hino says the reverse camera complements an industry-leading package of standard safety and comfort features, including true automatic transmission options, cruise control as standard, ABS and VSC, air conditioning, engine immobilisers, and a 6.1-inch high definition multimedia unit with DAB+ digital radio and smartphone Bluetooth connectivity.
