Hino Trucks Ushers in Third Generation of Vehicle Connectivity

Hino Trucks has introduced Hino Edge, the company’s new, third generation connected vehicle solution. Hino Edge synergizes the digital connection between the fleet customer, dealer network, Telematics Service Providers (TSP’s), and Hino Ultimate Support Center. The solution replaces Hino Insight and is included on qualifying 22MY and newer Hino conventional trucks as standard equipment.

Hino customers will receive five years of complimentary access to Edge’s fleet management web portal and mobile hub app named Hino Ultimate. The fully-integrated connectivity ecosystem delivers vehicle location tracking, a live fleet performance dashboard, vehicle health monitoring including real time fault notifications with severity ratings, simplified service experience with case communication, and the flexibility to add-on a third party advanced telematics service from one of Hino Trucks preferred partners.

Hino Trucks has partnered with telematics service providers to integrate business systems with Edge. Customers may elect to have vehicle data directly sent to the TSP of their choice — saving the cost of purchasing telematics equipment and increasing the vehicle information accessible by TSP’s, enabling higher value reporting. Current partners include GeoTab, MiX Telematics and Samsara with more being added.

Hino has partnered with T-Mobile to deliver communication speed and reliability. Hino customers will benefit from T-Mobile’s combination of network quality and portfolio of resources for critical, real-time vehicle communication and business-empowering solutions.
