Hino Australia has announced the return of its successful 3.9 per cent "Rate Breaker" finance deal on new Hino 300 Series trucks and 500 Series Tipper models^.
The offer by Hino Financial Services has been extended to include all Hino 300 Series models for the first time and is available on trucks ordered between July 1 and September 30, 2013.
Hino Australia's Divisional Manager Product Strategy, Marketing and Dealer Development, Alex Stewart, said the Rate Breaker offer was being repeated in response to customer demand.
"The original three-month finance campaign ended in December 2012 and resulted in increased sales for Hino," he said.
"Partly as a result of the Rate Breaker campaign, our sales were up by 26.5 per cent in 2012 compared with 2011."
Mr Stewart said the original 3.9 per cent offer announced in October 2012 influenced the buying habits of some truck operators who had not previously used Hino Financial Services for their vehicle purchases.
"Choosing to finance with Hino Financial Services rather than take a bank loan can assist the cash flow of a truck operator and - at only 3.9 per cent - it combines with Hino's renowned economy and reliability to minimise the whole-of-life cost of the vehicle."
The new 3.9 per cent Rate Breaker offer now gives applicants an extended finance period of up to 60 months, rather than the previous 48 months offered in 2012.
The finance for 300 Series models can include fitment of any body selected by the customer, although the finance amount is limited to $80,000.
The new Rate Breaker is also being offered on Hino's Built to Go factory-bodied ranges, all of which have been specifically designed and manufactured to perform a variety of roles for Australian customers.
The finance offer means now is the ideal time to take advantage of the broad range of features offered by the 45 model variants in the 300 Series' diesel and Hybrid range.
All 300 Series models have dual SRS airbags, four-wheel ventilated disc brakes incorporating ABS braking, electronic brake-force distribution (EBD) and, in an Australia first for a light-duty truck, vehicle stability control (VSC).
The eight-model 300 Series Hybrid range has a new parallel hybrid system, with increased performance and a new Automated Manual Transmission (AMT).
In addition to the special finance offer on all 300 Series, 300 Series Hybrid and 500 Series Tipper models, Hino Financial Services provides competitive finance rates on the entire Hino range.
