Customer trust in Hino Bus remains strong as the transportation industry increasingly prioritizes safety, comfort, and operational efficiency. This is reflected in the handover of two Hino buses to customers during the GAIKINDO Indonesia International Auto Show (GIIAS) 2026, held at the booths of Adiputro and Tentrem Body Builders. The two units were built with different specifications according to the business characteristics of each operator, demonstrating that Hino, together with its body builder partners, is able to provide transportation solutions that are truly oriented toward customer needs.

"Every operator has different needs. Therefore, Hino provides flexible chassis that can be developed together with body builders, allowing customers to obtain vehicles that best suit their business characteristics. This is the embodiment of Hino Total Support—not only providing vehicles, but also transportation solutions that deliver added value to customers," said Guntur Nugraha, Bus Dept Head of PT Hino Motors Sales Indonesia (HMSI).
