Hino Trucks held a ceremony at Hino's plant in Williamstown, West Virginia, to commemorate the delivery of the 10,000th Hino truck to Penske Truck Leasing (PTL).
"We congratulate the entire team at Hino and Toyota on this significant milestone," said Roger Penske, Chairman of Penske Truck Leasing. "Hino continues to be a trusted supplier of high-quality trucks within our truck leasing and truck rental fleets. We are pleased with the performance of these vehicles and the outstanding support Hino provides."
The 10,000th truck is a 2015 model 268A, which is part of Hino's class 6 & 7 conventional truck line up that is specifically suited for the lease and rental market segment where Hino has grown to 10 percent of the market. The 10,000th truck will be a part of Penske Truck Leasing's commercial rental fleet.
"This major milestone began in 2004 when PTL received its first Hino 268 truck. We are proud of our longstanding partnership with PTL and the delivery of our 10,000th Hino truck, a significant accomplishment for both companies. We are excited to mark this achievement and look forward to continuing to provide PTL with best in class trucks," said Yoshinori Noguchi, President & CEO for Hino Trucks.
