Hino Motors#Thailand

Hino's predecessors trace back to the founding of Tokyo Gas Industry Company in 1910. In 1910, Chiyoda Gas Company was established and competed fiercely against incumbent Tokyo Gas Company for supplying natural gas to users. Tokyo Gas Industry was a parts supplier for Chiyoda Gas but it was defeated and merged into Tokyo Gas in 1912. Having lost its largest client, Tokyo Gas Industry Co. broadened its product line including electronic parts, and renamed itself as Tokyo Gas and Electric Industry (東京瓦斯電気工業), TG&E, and was often abbreviated as Gasuden. It produced its first motor vehicle in 1917, the Model TGE "A-Type" truck. In 1937, TG&E merged its automobile division with that of Automobile Industry Co., Ltd. and Kyodo Kokusan K.K., to form Tokyo Automobile Industry Co., Ltd., with TG&E as a shareholder. Four years later, the company changed its name to Diesel Motor Industry Co., Ltd., which would eventually become Isuzu.{{citation needed|date=April 2021}}

In 1942, a new company called Hino Heavy Industry Co., Ltd. was spun out from Diesel Motor Industry Co., Ltd. During World War II, Hino manufactured Type 1 Ho-Ha half-track and Type 1 Ho-Ki armored personnel carrier for the Imperial Japanese Army. Following treaties signed at the end of World War II, the company had to stop producing large diesel engines for marine applications, so the company dropped the "Heavy" from its name and formally concentrated on the heavy-duty trailer-truck, buses and diesel engines markets, as Hino Industry Co., Ltd. The company took its name from the location of its headquarters in {{nihongo|Hino city|日野市|Hino-shi}} within Tokyo prefecture.

In 1948, the company spun itself into two entities, Hino Diesel Industry Co., Ltd and Hino Diesel Sales.{{cite book |last1=Simley |first1=John |last2=Salamie |first2=David E. |editor1-last=Grant |editor1-first=Tina |editor2-last=Pederson |editor2-first=Jay P. |title=International Directory of Company Histories |volume=21 |year=1998 |chapter=Hino Motors, Ltd. |publisher=St. James Press |isbn=1-55862-362-0 |pages=272–274}} In 1950 the heavy-duty TH10 was introduced, equipped with an all-new 7-liter DS10 diesel engine. An eight-tonner, this was considerably larger than existing Japanese trucks which had rarely been built for more than {{convert|6000|kg|lb|-1|abbr=on}} payload.{{cite web | url = http://www.jsae.or.jp/autotech/data_e/3-10e.html | work = 240 Landmarks of Japanese Automotive Technology | title = Hino TH10 Truck | publisher = Society of Automotive Engineers of Japan (JSAE) | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20130127031102/http://www.jsae.or.jp/autotech/data_e/3-10e.html | archive-date = 2013-01-27 | url-status = dead }} In 1952, the company introduced the B10/30 (Blue Ribbon) on a European style forward control cabin, a first for Japanese manufacturers.{{cite magazine |date=1955-07-29 |title=Japan on the way up |volume=101 |issue=2620 |publisher=Temple Press |journal=The Commercial Motor |location=London |page=49 |issn=0010-3063}} In 1953, it rolled off the ZG heavy truck which became the most sold dump truck in Japan. That year, Hino entered the private car market, by manufacturing Renaults under licence, and in 1961 it started building its own Contessa 900 sedan with an 893cc rear-mounted engine, and a pickup truck called the Hino Briska with the Contessa engine slightly enlarged and installed in the front with rear wheel drive. The Italian stylist Giovanni Michelotti redesigned the Contessa line in 1964 with a 1300 cc rear-mounted engine. Fed by two SU type carburettors, this developed 60 hp (44 kW) in the sedan 70 hp (51 kW) in the coupé version.{{citation needed|date=June 2023}}

In 1959, the company adopted the Hino Motors, Ltd. name.

In 1963, the Hamura factory began operations.

Hino Trucks have also been assembled in Norway (1977–85),{{cite book |first=Jørgen Seemann |last=Berg |title=RSA 75 år: et norsk eventyr |year=2011 |isbn=978-82-994245-2-3 |language=Norwegian}} Portugal and Canada.{{cite journal | journal = TRUCK | date = May 1982 | ref = truck82 | page = 42 | last = Minnis | first = Peter | title = New Hinos head for Britain | location = London, UK | publisher = FF Publishing Ltd }}

Hino was in financial difficulties in the 1960s. In October 1966, following some pressure for industry consolidation from the Japanese government, Hino and Toyota signed a partnership agreement (through the Mitsui Bank){{cite book |last1=Genther |first1=Phyllis Ann |title=A History of Japan's Government-Business Relationship |year=1990 |publisher=University of Michigan Press |isbn=978-0-939512-40-9 |page=149}} by which the former became an affiliate of the latter and focused itself on truck and bus production alongside vehicle assembly under contract.{{cite book |last1=Shimokawa |first1=Koichi |title=The Japanese Automobile Industry: A Business History |year=1994 |publisher=Bloomsbury Academic |isbn=0-485-11270-1 |page=134}}{{cite journal |year=1995 |last=Shioji |first=Hiromi |title='Itaku' Automotive Production: An Aspect of the Development of Full-Line and Wide-Selection Production by Toyota in the 1960s |volume=65 |issue=1 |journal=Kyoto University Economic Review |pages=19–42 |publisher=Kyoto University |jstor=43217480 |issn=0023-6055}}{{cite web |url=https://www.nikkei.com/nkd/company/article/?DisplayType=1&ng=DGXZQOFD3084R0Q3A530C2000000&scode=7203 |title=トヨタ、外部資本で日野自再建 脱炭素へ規模拡大に活路

The Hino Briska pickup was rebadged as the Toyota Briska and, in March 1968, the model was used to develop the Toyota HiLux which had more stock parts from Toyota. Hino also assembled the Publica van and sedan. Both companies started to collaborate in purchasing as well as research and development. Hino officially stopped assembling passenger cars in 1969, although continued assembling light vehicles for Toyota (as the Publica van and the HiAce). Up until the 1990s, Hino assembled the HiLux.

In the 1960s, Hino launched new medium and heavy duty trucks (TC300, KF). In March 1964, the company launched the medium duty KM series truck, later named the Ranger.

In the 1970s, Hino introduced the so-called "red" diesel engines with a focus on fuel efficiency and incorporating MAN technology. The company began to increase exports as it had an efficiency advantage compared to most foreign rivals at the time. By the end of the 1970s, export sales surpassed domestic ones. In 1977, Hino launched its first long range coach. In 1981, the company introduced the Profia, the first truck of a new series with improved aerodynamics, engines and cabin.

In the late 1970s, Hino started to form partnerships with other manufacturers besides Toyota. In 1978, it established a technical assistance agreement with Asia Motors.{{cite web |url=http://magazine.hankyung.com/business/apps/news?popup=0&nid=01&nkey=2014070300969000351&mode=sub_view |title=미완으로 끝난 봉고·프라이드 신화 |trans-title=Bongo/Pride, an unfinished myth |language=ko |work=Korea Economic Magazine |date=2014-06-23 |access-date=2023-06-07}} That same year, it established a partnership with the Chinese car manufacturer FAW by providing technical assistance on medium trucks to it, mostly for improving FAW's outdated Jiefanghao range (based on the 1940s ZIS-150).{{cite journal |year=2021 |last1=Wang |first1=Zhongqi |last2=Suh |first2=Youngkyo |title=Multiskilled labor management of Japanese commercial vehicle makers in the Chinese market: the cases of Hino and Isuzu |volume=20 |issue=1 |journal=Annals of Business Administrative Science |publisher=Global Business Research Center |issn=1347-4456 |page=7 |doi=10.7880/abas.0201201a|doi-access=free}} In 1986, it  started to license its engines to Ashok Leyland.{{cite web |url=https://commercialvehicle.in/70-years-of-ashok-leyland/ |title=70 years of Ashok Leyland |work=CV |date=2018-11-16 |access-date=2023-06-07}}

Starting in the 1990s, Hino returned to financial difficulties. The company introduced new heavy vehicles (trucks and coaches) and expanded its Asian business to try improving its profitability. Toyota also helped its affiliate by giving it assembly contracts (Toyota Tercel/Corsa, Toyota T100). In March 1997, Toyota increased its Hino stake (at the time 11.4%) to 16.4% and to 20.1% by the end of the year.{{cite web |url=https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/1997/09/29/national/toyota-to-increase-stake-in-hino-motors/ |title=Toyota to increase stake in Hino Motors |work=Japan Times |date=1997-09-29 |access-date=2023-06-04}} Toyota also moved all its production and development activities for light trucks to Hino.

In June 1998, Toyota said it planned to take control of Hino.{{cite magazine |date=1998-06-11 |title=Briefs |volume=187 |issue=4777 |publisher=Reed Business Information |journal=Commercial Motor |location=Sutton |page=6 |issn=0010-3063}} By March 2001, it had acquired a 36.6% Hino stake.{{cite web |url=https://www.bloomberg.co.jp/news/articles/2001-04-25/GCCEEE07SXKX |title=トヨタ：日野自を子会社化、第３者割当増資を引き受け-社長派遣も |trans-title=Toyota makes Hino Motors a subsidiary, underwrites third-party allotment of new shares, dispatches president |language=ja |work=Bloomberg Japan |date=2001-04-25 |access-date=2023-06-07}} Later that year, Hino became a subsidiary of Toyota after the latter increased its ownership to a 50.1% majority stake.{{cite web |url=https://s.response.jp/article/2001/04/25/8705.html |title=生き残りへトヨタがグループ力結集---日野子会社化、その後 |work=Response.jp |trans-title=Toyota concentrates its group's strengths to survive.

In 2002, Hino and Isuzu merged their bus/coach production and development facilities in Japan into a joint venture called J-Bus.{{cite web |url=https://monoist.itmedia.co.jp/mn/spv/1906/10/news039.html |title=いすゞと日野が開発した国産初のハイブリッド連節バス、そのモノづくり力 (後編) |trans-title=Japan's first hybrid articulated bus, developed by Isuzu and Hino.

The deal also included the possibility of further technical and commercial collaboration.{{cite magazine |date=2002-03-28 |title=Scania and Hino form a strategic alliance |volume=195 |issue=4971 |publisher=Reed Business Information |last=Barnett |first=Colin |journal=Commercial Motor |location=Sutton |page=20 |issn=0010-3063}} In December 2006, Scania started to sell Hino trucks in South Korea.{{cite web |url=https://www.vb.is/eftir-vinnu/scania-to-market-medium-duty-hino-trucks-in-korea/ |title=Scania to market medium-duty Hino trucks in Korea |work=Viðskiptablaðið |date=2006-12-11 |access-date=2023-06-07}} In June 2011, Scania left the deal after it opened its own Japanese sales operation.{{cite web |url=https://www.oemoffhighway.com/engines/press-release/10307668/scania-starting-own-operations-in-japan |title=Scania starting own operations in Japan |work=OEM Off-Highway |date=2011-06-24 |access-date=2023-06-07}}

In 2012, Hino started to move medium and heavy truck production in Japan from its obsolete, cramped Hino plant to a new one in Koga, Ibaraki, which initially produced complete knock-down kits for export.{{cite web |url=https://mainichi.jp/articles/20171013/k00/00m/020/059000c |title=多品種生産、効率化 古河工場を公開 |trans-title=Multi-product assembly, efficient Koga plant opens to the public |language=ja |work=The Mainichi |date=2017-10-12 |access-date=2023-06-07}}{{cite web |url=https://fullload.bestcarweb.jp/news/15999 |title=日野自動車、新田工場で大型エンジン工場の鍬入れ式を実施 |trans-title=Hino Motors holds groundbreaking ceremony for large engine plant at Nitta |language=ja |work=Fullload |date=2015-02-12 |access-date=2023-06-07}} The move was completed in September 2017,{{cite web |url=https://m.bizcommunity.com/Article/196/485/169320.html |title=Hino Motors' new Koga plant off to a good start |work=Bizcommunity |date=2017-10-27 |access-date=2023-06-07}}{{cite web |url=https://www.nikkei.com/article/DGXMZO22183480S7A011C1TJ2000/ |title=日野自、古河をマザー工場に 本格稼働で公開 |trans-title=Hino Motors starts full-scale operations at Koga as main plant |language=ja |work=Nikkei |date=2017-10-12 |access-date=2023-06-07}} as part of a consolidation of the Japanese operations into three main plants: Koga would produce medium and heavy trucks; Nitta (Ota, Gunma), which had already been manufacturing engines for light and medium vehicles and opened a new plant for large ones completed in December 2016 to replace the Hino plant, engines and transmissions; Hamura, lighter trucks and contract assembly for Toyota.

In 2018, Hino and Volkswagen Truck & Bus (later renamed Traton) announced a wide-ranging strategic partnership for activities including procurement, technologies and logistics. In November 2019, they established a procurement joint venture called Hino and Traton Global Procurement, with 51% of it owned by Traton and 49% by Hino.{{cite web |url=https://www.automotivelogistics.media/supply-chain-management/traton-and-hino-sign-procurement-jv/39547.article |title=Traton and Hino sign procurement JV |work=Automotive Logistics |last=Williams |first=Marcus |date=2019-11-05 |access-date=2020-02-25}} By 2023, the partnership was terminated.

In March 2021, Hino, its parent Toyota, and Isuzu announced the creation of a strategic partnership between the three companies. Toyota acquired a 4.6% stake in Isuzu while the latter plans to acquire Toyota shares for an equivalent value. The three companies said they would form a new joint venture by April called Commercial Japan Partnership Technologies Corporation with the aim of developing fuel cell and electric light trucks.

Hino Motors signed a 10-year assembly agreement with Kaiser-Illin Industries of Haifa, Israel, in 1963. Assembly of the Contessa 900 started in 1964. Later, Briska 900 and 1300 and the Contessa 1300 sedan were assembled in Haifa as well.

Israel exports amounted to ~10% of total Contessa production. After it was purchased by Toyota, the contract was terminated and the last Israeli Contessas rolled off the assembly line in March 1968. In total, over 8,000 Hino Contessa and Briska were assembled in Israel.{{cite web |work=IsraelMotorIndustry.org |url=http://israelmotorindustry.org/hino_contessa_israel |script-title=he:קונטסה מיפן מגיעה לאילת |trans-title=Contessa comes from Japan to Eilat |language = Hebrew | accessdate=2012-06-01}}

In mid 2008, Hino Motors was said to be building a new truck assembly facility in Guanajuato, Mexico, serving international deliveries. The facility was reportedly built in an 80:20 partnership with Japanese trading firm Mitsui, opening in 2009 and with a production capacity for 1,200 of the Hino 500 series trucks per year.{{cite news |url=http://www.todaystrucking.com/hino-to-open-new-truck-plant-in-mexico |title=Hino to open new truck plant in Mexico |work=Today's Trucking |date=2008-08-14 |access-date=2015-08-04}}

Hinopak Motors was formed in 1985 by a diverse group of sponsors. These included Hino Motors, Toyota Tsusho, Al-Futtaim Group and PACO. In 1998, Hino Motors, and Toyota Tsusho Corporation obtained majority shareholding in the company after disinvestments by the other two founding sponsors.

Hinopak Motors manufactures and markets diesel trucks and buses in Pakistan. Hinopak Motors has gained 70% market share making it the largest manufacturer in medium and heavy-duty truck and bus industry in Pakistan.

In 1975, Hino has entered the Philippine market, and creating Pilipinas Hino, Inc. It was originally established for the manufacturing of buses and, later, trucks. In the 1970s, Hino had initially shipped vehicles to the country from Japan, before the creation of PHI.

In 2015, Pilipinas Hino, Inc. changed its name to Hino Motors Philippines Corporation.{{cite web |title=Hino Motors Acquires Majority Ownership of Joint Company in the Philippines |url=https://www.hino-global.com/corp/news/2015/20150728.html |website=Hino Motors, Ltd.}}

Hino has four plants in Japan: Hino, Hamura, Nitta and Koga.

The Hino plant operates since the establishment of the company.{{cite press release |url=https://www.hino.co.jp/corp/news/2013/20130726.html |title=日野自動車、グローバル生産体制構築を加速 |trans-title=Hino accelerates build up of global production system |language=ja |publisher=Hino |date=2013-07-26 |access-date=2023-06-16}} Until 2016, it produced medium and heavy trucks and large diesel engines. In the 2016–2017 period, it was completely replaced by the Nitta and Koga plants for those, keeping since then only some activities related to vehicle parts. Hino plans to completely shut down the Hino plant by 2025.{{cite web |url=https://newswitch.jp/p/35188 |title=エンジン不正問題の日野自動車、本社工場敷地3分の1売却の苦境 |trans-title=Due to the fraudulent engines scandal, Hino faces difficulties.

In December 2022, Hino said it wanted to sell one third of that land.

The Koga plant became fully operational in 2017, after gradually starting operations of its different production lines. The plant produces parts, axles, frames as well as medium and heavy trucks both as knock-down kits and as fully assembled units. The plant site is about {{cvt|660,000|m2|ft2|sigfig=2}}. The built area of the Koga plant is divided into five operations: knock down plant ({{cvt|26,000 |m2|ft2|sigfig=2|disp=comma}}), axle plant ({{cvt|13,000|m2|ft2|sigfig=2|disp=comma}}), frame plant ({{cvt|12,000|m2|ft2|sigfig=2|disp=comma}}), cab plant ({{cvt|22,000|m2|ft2|sigfig=2|disp=comma}}) and vehicle assembly plant ({{cvt|61,000|m2|ft2|sigfig=2|disp=comma}}).{{cite press release |url=https://www.hino.co.jp/corp/news/2015/20150212.html |title=日野自動車、新田工場で大型エンジン工場の鍬入れ式を実施 |trans-title=Hino holds groundbreaking ceremony for large engine plant at Nitta |language=ja |publisher=Hino |date=2015-02-12 |access-date=2023-06-16}}

The Nitta plant was established in 1980. It produces axles, engines and transmissions. Up until late 2016, it only assembled small and medium engines while the large ones were by the Hino plant. By late 2016, the plant opened its own large engine assembly division, replacing the Hino one. The plant site is {{cvt|390,000|m2|ft2|sigfig=2}}. The plant itself covers {{cvt|28,000|m2|ft2|sigfig=2}}.

The Hamura plant started operations in 1963. It produces axles, light trucks and light vehicle contract assembly for Toyota. The plant site is {{cvt|770,000|m2|ft2|sigfig=2}}.

Hino has two test facilities within Japan (in Ibaraki, Osaka and Memuro, Hokkaido), various warehousing facilities (in Ōme, Tokyo, Sapporo and Koga), a museum and training facility (Hachiōji), a vehicle distribution facility (Hidaka, Saitama) and a technical center for clients (Hamura).
