Hino SA trims it Dyna model from medium to light commercial vehicle

Hino South Africa, the commercial vehicle arm of Toyota South Africa Motors, has reclassified its Toyota Dyna truck as a light commercial vehicle (LCV), moving it from the medium commercial vehicle (MCV) segment where it has been competing since its introduction to South Africa in 1965. Toyota redesigned the Dyna’s chassis to achieve a 50 kg weight loss, providing the vehicle with a gross vehicle mass of 3 500 kg – a move which allows it to be classified as a LCV.
