Hino is a leader in environmentally friendly diesel engines. Using ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel, Hino's Diesel Particulate Reduction (DPR) system collects and periodically re-burns the soot that derives from diesel fuel combustion. This leading edge technology reduces soot exhaust by an amazing 90%! The Hino DPR technology has been proven effective and reliable here and in Japan.
