Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus (MFTBC) has launched a new 2012 model Aero Midi medium route bus for Japan.
The new Aero Midi route bus features the newly developed brake override system (BOS) as standard, in which the brake function will override vehicle acceleration when brake and accelerator pedals are pressed at the same time.
The bus driver's seat is equipped with multi-sensing three-point seatbelt with emergency locking retractor.
In 2011, the company sold a total of about 147,700 vehicles including light-, medium- and heavy-duty trucks and buses.
Daimler owns 89.29% of MFTBC shares and various Mitsubishi group companies own 10.71% of MFTBC shares.
MFTBC is an integral part of the Daimler Trucks Division of Daimler.
In August 2012, MFTBC had launched a new Canter light-duty truck in Turkey and revealed plans to build a new service plant in Chikugo City, Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan.
