Hino Malaysia Special: HINO Buses, Environmentally Friendly, Efficient & Safe

Emissions friendly and energy efficient vehicles have been widely talked about for years but the focus has usually been on passenger vehicles. However, more interest has been generated recently for energy efficient commercial vehicles especially buses, which promote the efficient movement of large numbers of people.
