Hino Profia

The Hino Profia is a heavy duty cab-over truck produced by Hino Motors, a 50.1 percent subsidiary of Toyota Motor Corporation. It was introduced in 1981 as the Super Dolphin, which was Hino's entry into the heavy duty truck market in Japan and was exported internationally. The name Profia is officially used in Japan, and in most export markets the truck is also known as the Hino 700 Series. The Profia name arrived in May 1992 as a model change of the Super Dolphin. The truck was also equipped with power windows, including a sliding power window, which was unusual for trucks at the time.
