Suzuki Philippines reports that they now contract with major truckmaker Hino Motors Philippines to build their Carry light truck rear bodies. Citing increased demand for their Carry trucks with utility van (UV) bodies, Suzuki now sources completion of cab and chassis units with these multi-purpose cabins to long-running truck- and bus-body assembler Hino Philippines.
Press Statement by Suzuki Philippines, Inc., “Suzuki boosts production line through partnership with HINO Motors Philippines Corp. (HMP),” 31 January 2022:
January 31, 2022, Manila, Philippines—With the rise of small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) and organizations looking for a reliable partner to meet their commercial business needs, Suzuki Philippines Inc. (SPH) recently announced its partnership with HINO Motors Philippines Corporation (HMP), due to the increasing demand, specifically, in production of Utility Van Body for Suzuki Carry.
HINO Motors Philippines Corporation (HMP), formerly Pilipinas Hino, Inc., has long been engaged in the assembly and distribution of quality HINO trucks, buses and spare parts. Widely known in the industry as a “one-stop shop” – from chassis assembly, body building, and vehicle maintenance, repair and refurbishing – they are the first bus body manufacturer in the nation to receive an ISO 9001:2000 Certification, a distinction that proves beyond doubt its unmatched product quality.
With their long-standing expertise, HINO Motors Philippines Corporation now joins Suzuki’s production team, along with the brand’s existing body builder partners.
The recent announcement coincides with Suzuki’s ongoing Carry Promo for 2022, where customers who purchase any Suzuki Carry variant until the end of the year get to receive three years or 45,000 km worth of free periodic maintenance service (PMS) labor, engine oil, oil filter, and gasket changes and replacements.
“We are excited to have HINO Motors on board as one of our body builders to further
strengthen the production lines of the ever popular Suzuki Carry,” shared Mr. Keiichi Suzuki, Vice President and General Manager of Suzuki Philippines Automobile Division. “Rest assured, Suzuki will have more units of the Carry available this year to go to work with you and be your reliable partner in fulfilling your business needs.”
