Mitsubishi Fuso manufactures trucks for use in contracting, dry freight, food service and refrigeration, landscaping, off-road, public works, and other applications.
Mitsubishi Fuso’s roots go all the way back to 1932 when the Mitsubishi Shipbuilding Company designed its B46 bus, which was referred to as the Fuso. In 1949, Mitsubishi established the Fuso Motor Sales Company, and then changed its name to Mitsubishi Fuso Motor Sales Company in 1952. The company then went through a series of restructures and brand evolutions before finally hitting on the Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation (MFTBC) in 2003. The company currently manufactures trucks for use in contracting, dry freight, food service and refrigeration, landscaping, off-road, public works, and more. Daimler AG currently has 89.29% ownership of the company.
Of the many Mitsubishi Fuso trucks for sale today, the main models the company focuses on are the FE130, FE160, FE160 Crew Cab, FE180, FG4X4, and eCanter. Each vehicle will have different weight ratings, payload maximums, paint colors, etc., but all of them are built to the same standards that Mitsubishi Fuso and its predecessors have held since the very beginning. The eCanter light truck, in particular, puts a spotlight on Mitsubishi Fuso’s innovative streak, because it is fully powered by an electric engine, which is a world first for the company.
