The 2nd-generation Canter T91A (1970 model), 2nd-generation Canter T95AD (1970 model) and 3rd-generation Canter T210C (1975 model) will appear at various media, customer, employee and public events in the coming months and years.
MFTBC VP of product engineering Eike Boehm said that these restored vehicles show Mitsubishi Fuso’s legacy of technological innovation which continues today with the company's focus on highly efficient, environmentally-friendly trucks and buses.
These trucks surely provided a long service life to their customers, and now they will live on as strong examples of Mitsubishi Fuso’s product heritage, Boehm said.
The project also provides a 'back-to-basics' learning experience for the volunteer members, with the restoration activity, we once again reflect on the basic structure of a vehicle.
At the same time, it gives us good opportunity to recognize the significance of manufacturing by breaking down vehicles and reassembling them.
We can apply the learning of this restoration actively in our development of current trucks with advanced information technologies, as we aim to create vehicles based on strong fundamentals.
