The FE1426 Auto now comes with a factory installed Allison automatic transmission. This installation is a torque convertor driven, single overdrive, full automatic 2500 Series 5 speed transmission.
Complete with a HINO specific designed gear shifter, it is perfect for the 21st century trucker. From the rugged terrain of an active construction site to the busy streets and highways of a city, the HINO Allison transmission combination is designed and built specifically to deliver superior results, even in the most challenging work conditions. The FE1426 Auto uses a torque converter instead of a dry clutch, this allows for better driveability and slow speed manoeuvrability.
To get the most benefit out of every drop of fuel, the HINO J07E-TN engine works in sync with the sophisticated 5th Generation Electronic Controls of the Allison Transmission.
As a genuine Hino service centre, Northpoint Hino provide approved service personnel who are specifically trained to work on and understand Hino products, making them the ideal place for all warranty work and regular services.
