Hino Trucks (Hino) has acknowledged that the rapidly changing global health emergency is creating uneven economic effects across all industries. In response, Hino is introducing the Ultimate Confidence Initiative meant to strengthen and support businesses.
- No payments or interest until January 2021: Hino is offering its customers a ‘No Payment and No Interest in 2020’ option. Subject to credit approval on applications made by August 31, this financing opportunity is available on all new Hino models.
- Service free of charge: Customers who take advantage of the ‘No Payments and No Interest in 2020’ option will also have all of their required maintenance covered in 2020 through December 31.
- HINOCARE – 90-day extension: HinoCare's planned maintenance program for Hino's cabover lineup – 155, 195, M4, M5 models – already helps customers stay on schedule and on budget, according to the company. Now, customers with this preventive service care program on their current cabover trucks or HinoCare that was purchased for their conventional trucks – 258, 268, 338, L6, L7 models – will have a 90-day extension added to the end date of their services.
“The COVID-19 situation has resulted in unprecedented financial challenges to our customers’ livelihoods, and Hino is pleased to offer positive changes that effect their bottom line,” said Glenn Ellis, senior vice president of customer experience. “Our philosophy has always had a strong focus on the customer, and with the launch of the Ultimate Confidence Initiative, our goal is to support our partners even more to get through these challenges.”
With the support of this new initiative, Hino said it is providing the confidence and purchasing power fleet owners need to maintain operations and expand their fleet.
“This customer-focused financing and service package will provide businesses the momentum they need to weather this storm,” continued Ellis. “We will continue to support our dealers and customers so that when this crisis is over, they are ready for the opportunities ahead.”
