MFTBC plans to stage the world premiere of a prototype for the new heavy-duty Super Great truck at JMS 2023.
Date: October 13, 2023
Kanagawa, Japan- Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation., will be presenting its product and service offerings at the Japan Mobility Show 2023 that will be held between October 26 and November 5, 2023, at Tokyo Big Sight (Koto Ward, Tokyo).
The Japan Mobility Show 2023 (JMS 2023) is organized by the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association (JAMA) as the successor to the Tokyo Motor Show. Mitsubishi Fuso, under the theme "Future Together," will showcase a booth with a building block-inspired design. They'll feature real vehicles, videos, and interactive displays highlighting products and services for a sustainable society.
New all-electric eCanter truck with tipper and garbage truck applications
A key highlight at the Mitsubishi Fuso booth will be the latest eCanter, which offers expanded applications. They will showcase an eCanter with a tipper body, thanks to the addition of a power takeoff device (ePTO). Alongside it, they'll exhibit a garbage truck with a futuristic design. The eCanter's smooth surfaces make it practical for urban settings, maintaining a clean appearance and preventing dust accumulation. This electric vehicle produces no exhaust emissions, minimal vibration, and noise, enabling environmentally-friendly and community-friendly work.
eCanter test vehicle with battery swapping technology
MFTBC and Ample Inc., are collaborating on a pilot project involving battery-swapping electric trucks using the latest eCanter model. These trucks will feature modular batteries that can be automatically exchanged at Ample battery swapping stations, aiming for a quick 5-minute swap. The trial of this system on public roads in Japan is scheduled for the upcoming winter. At the JMS 2023 booth, MFTBC and Ample will display the latest eCanter with swappable battery modules and the swapping station.
FUSO eMobility Solutions
MFTBC is creating a range of customer offerings through FUSO eMobility Solutions that can fully support the introduction and use of EV trucks. At JMS 2023, MFTBC will unveil Truckonnect, a telematics service for vehicle management and monitoring, as well as additional services. Truckonnect is a leasing programme created specifically for the eCanter in Japan.
