Hino Trucks has joined with Fontaine Modification to introduce a Class 7 city tractor version of its Model 338 straight truck.

The Hino 338 City Tractor is a single-axle tractor powered by Hino's 260-horsepower J-Series engine featuring choices of two wheelbases, an Allison 3300 RDS automatic transmission, Meritor 21,000-pound rear axle with Hendrickson air suspensions or 23,000-pound rear axle with spring suspension.
The 338 City Tractor package includes the specified wheelbase, tractor/trailer brake and electrical connections, optional vertical exhaust, tapered rear frame, back of cab access, a Fontaine fifth wheel and Fleetline spray suppression components including stainless steel quarter fenders, mud flap brackets and mud flaps. Wabco trailer ABS control and a single air horn are also standard.
Nick Vermet, senior vice president of sales and marketing for Hino, said, "Fontaine brings a long history of first class design to this effort. We see this tractor as the first of many projects we can do together that allow us to meet end user requests."
"The Hino 338 is a great platform for this type of conversion," said Wade Roskam, Fontaine's vice president of sales and marketing. "We're excited to be part of Hino's entry into this market segment."
