Profia (2003-)

In 2003 it was renamed as Hino Profia and still produced in Japan without Super Dolphin badge. The cabin design is similar to the fourth generation Ranger, but the Profia is bigger. It is based on the Grand Aerotech Design technology resulting outstanding aerodynamic performance. The cabin also adopts upgraded Emergency Guard Impact Safety (EGIS) to protect occupants. The Hino 700 is also available in Taiwan and made by Kuozui Motors, and is being assembled for other locations.

Engine choices are 10,520 cc P11C, and 12,913 cc E13C. Transmission is either 7, 12, or 16 speed manual. The Pro Shift 12 automatic transmission is offered in Japan. Hino 700 trucks are sold in Australia and New Zealand with Eaton Fuller RoadRanger Super18 transmissions, as this is the most common heavy-duty transmission in use downunder.
