MT Newswires Live

Mar 06, 2025

Hino Motors (TYO:7205) and Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus have resumed merger talks, but financial strain and market shifts remain key hurdles, Nikkei Asia reported Thursday.

Hino, a Toyota (TYO:7203) unit, settled a US engine data scandal in January, clearing a major obstacle. However, its net debt has doubled since 2021 to 257.2 billion yen, with a $1.2 billion fine still due, the report said.

Hino continues to face production setbacks, while rival Isuzu has strengthened its position after acquiring UD Trucks, the newspaper reported.
