How the Hybrid Electric Works
The Hino Hybrid Electric truck utilises an electric motor and a diesel engine working in parallel, intelligently applying of both – to boost efficiency.
Power Source
The kinetic energy from the moving vehicle is converted to useable power by the hybrid motor upon deceleration, it is stored in the batteries where it remains until the intelligent hybrid driveline determines a requirement for use during acceleration.
Start Up
Start up of the diesel engine is performed by the hybrid electric motor, eliminating the need for a traditional starter motor.
Acceleration
The hybrid system continually analyses the vehicle operating conditions and the status of the hybrid battery, and can intelligently switch between the diesel engine alone, or a combination of the diesel engine and the electric motor.
Crusing
When cruising, the Hybrid system switches to diesel engine only as this is its most fuel-efficient state.
Deceleration
During deceleration, the hybrid electric motor switches to generator mode, acting as an auxiliary brake while converting the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle into electric power to be stored in the hybrid battery.
Idle Stop
When the vehicle comes to a stop with the brake pedal applied, the diesel engine will automatically stop, eliminating unnecessary fuel consumption. When the brake is released, the engine restarts.

Safety
The power of being Australia’s safest Hybrid Electric Truck
Safety continues to be a central design principle of all Hino trucks, and the Hino 300 Series Hybrid Electric is no different. Featuring Hino SmartSafe, a comprehensive safety package† with advanced driver-assist technology that takes an active focus in protecting the lives of all road users. These advanced safety features are engineered as standard inclusions, not optional extras.
Pre-collision System
If PCS detects the possibility of a collision with a vehicle in front, using radar and image sensors, it will warn you to apply the brakes. If you don’t respond, the truck can brake autonomously.
Pedestrian Detection
If PCS detects a pedestrian in front and senses the possibility of a collision it will warn you. If you don’t respond, the truck can brake autonomously.
Lane Departure Warning System
The LDWS uses the PCS camera, and can provide the driver with both audible and visual cues if the truck is deviating from its lane without the turn indicators being engaged by the driver.
Vehicle Stability Control
VSC is designed to help drivers maintain vehicle control and help prevent the truck from rolling over or sliding when entering or exiting a corner too fast
Reverse Camera
Offers wide view, high definition vision, along with infrared night vision. Includes a microphone with volume control which allows the driver to hear their surroundings.
Daytime Running Lamps
DRL’s are designed to highlight the truck’s presence to other road users and run any time the truck headlamps are not being operated. Boasting enhanced aesthetics as well as safety.
Comfort and Technology
Designed for the driver
Designed for purpose, advanced ergonomics have been applied throughout for a high degree of comfort. Innovative features maximise efficiency and driver enjoyment, resulting in a workspace you want to be in.
