Improved fuel efficiency and productivity
One of the prime considerations in the all-new FUSO TV33-400S 6x4 truck tractor is maximum torque from low rpm, which provides the right power and control to pull goods from a standstill - while at the same time providing the driver with enough torque to keep the actual speed and optimised vehicle acceleration, contributing to major savings on fuel.
The new truck also comes standard with an automated manual transmission, a forward-thinking feature that continues to set the bar high in the industry, thanks to its positive impact on fuel consumption, vehicle performance, safety, and driver comfort.
Further to this, driving in the new model is also facilitated by an improved cruise control system and a speed limiter, which allow the driver to maintain constant and fuel-saving speed - reducing driver fatigue and accidents, especially when driving on open highways.
The all-new 6x4 truck tractor also provides business operators with peace of mind as the vehicle is built on a heavy-duty hub reduction rear axle with a differential lock, to handle any kind of tasks thrown at it to meet a variety of business needs.
Enhanced safety features
FUSO Trucks, made no compromises when it comes to standard safety features in the new FUSO TV33-400S 6x4 truck tractor. The truck is fully equipped with an ABS air brake system and auxiliary exhaust brake, providing excellent support for safe driving.
Additionally, the new vehicle has further enhanced safety through the design of the cab as it proudly complies with the most stringent ECE R29 version cab strength regulations that involve two cab tests – front impact, static roof strength and an optional impact test on the cab’s rear wall.
Aerodynamic cab, designed for tough conditions
The new model offers outstanding fuel consumption through its finely crafted aerodynamic cab design with the aim of minimising air drag.
Visibility on the new truck has also been enhanced, owing to the distinctively looking dual chamber headlamp with LED daytime running light. The LED daytime running lights increases road presence and improves safety.
Further improvement on the truck is the electrical cab tilt which provides effortless operation – easy to lift and wide access to the engine bay for easy maintenance.
All inspection and maintenance points are easy to find and access, thanks to the front service flap which ensures the vehicle is in optimal operating condition and on the road where it belongs.
Cab interior, built with the driver in mind
Cab interior design has always been one of FUSO Trucks’ key focus areas to meet the driver’s increasing needs. Its ergonomically designed interiors and features enhance driving pleasure and considerably reduce fatigue.
A prime example is the intelligent instrument cluster a multi-information display. This exceptional feature provides useful information like coolant temp, ambient temp, engine run hours, avg speed, fuel efficiency DTE, and gear indicator.
Furthermore, a lot of attention to detail in the new vehicle also went into the sleeper cab, which has been designed to make drivers feel at home while on the road, reduce driver fatigue and maximise productivity.
Exceptional service intervals and warranty tailored to your business
With the new truck, you will get more than just a hard-working vehicle to ensure productivity - you will also get unmatched service intervals and warranty tailored to your business, and this includes; engine oil change at 50,000 kilometres or 1000 hours, coolant change approximately on 100,000 kilometres or 12 months, transmission oil change on 150,000 kilometres, differential oil change on 150,000 kilometres, and warranty at 4 years or 300,000 kilometres.
