History

edit

The Super Great had driver's airbag and wheel parking brake equipped in 2000. The Super Great's cab was heavily facelifted, and the UD Trucks based AdBlue Urea Selective catalytic reduction system was equipped in 2007 on the facelift version, also used in the Nissan Diesel Quon.

In April 2017, the Super Great received another facelift. Standard equipment in the new Super Great include a new LED projector headlamps, a new 4-spoke steering wheel (replacing the original facelift version), an integrated new instrument cluster, an improved 12-speed automated manual transmission (now branded as SHIFTPILOT) and a multi-function key with push start/stop button. Sales commence of this new model in Japan started later in 2017. Safety features including Active Brake Assist, Active Attention Assistant that monitors driver alertness and provides a warning when a low attention level or distraction is detected, Lane Departure Warning System and Proximity Control Assist (side guard assist). The Super Great was the first commercial vehicle in Japan to be fitted with such advanced driving assistanc systems.[2]

In 2023, the Mitsubishi Fuso Super Great received a facelift for the 2024 model year. The major changes are new headlights, engine, design, and the interior as well. The new engine is a 12.8-liter 6R30 turbocharged intercooled diesel engine with 394-421 PS and 2,000-2,100 Nm. The new 6R30 engine also complies with the JH25 mode heavy-duty fuel efficiency standards. The new Mitsubishi Fuso Super Great also receives these upgraded safety systems like Active Brake Assist 6, Active Sideguard Assist 2, and Front Blindspot Information System. These new models are only available with the rigid chassis type, and have 2 grades such as FS and FU, and 2 body types such as the wing box and the dump truck
