safety features
Safety starts before you turn on the engine. The Hino XL Series cab has been designed for safe, easy entry and exit with exterior grab handles, deep all-weather grip steps and extra wide door openings. Standard LED headlights, a high seating position and a 2,385 sq. in. windshield provide maximum visibility for the driver. Advanced active safety systems are also available on all models.
COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM
Available radar-based collision mitigation system provides active braking on moving and stationary vehicles - in all visibility conditions.
LANE DEPARTURE WARNINg
An available camera-based system that helps reduce road run-offs, side swipes, and head-on collisions due to driver inattention or fatigue through distinct audible warnings for unintentional lane departures.
ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL

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.
