Hino Australia CEO Richard Emery says he is excited that Eagers Automotive were involved with the opening of Canberra Hino.

“As Dealer Principal of Canberra Hino, Mirko Milic brings almost 20 years of experience as a Dealer Principal, most recently at Canberra Toyota and Lexus,” says Emery.

“Canberra is an important market for Hino – its residents, businesses and government departments are renowned for their commitment to the environment, so we expect our 300 Series Hybrid Electric light-duty truck to be extremely popular.”

Dealer principal Mirko Milic says the previous Canberra Toyota was well-known for great service, and can see Canberra Hino being just as successful.

“This ethos forms the foundation of our culture at Canberra Hino where our team combines excellent Hino sales, parts and service knowledge with a skilled and experienced management team,” he says.

“The new dealership features a 200m² indoor showroom, an additional five service bays, a parts warehouse with an increased capacity of 4000m², and a dedicated wash bay.

“Personally, I’ve enjoyed my return to the Hino family and the trucking industry – I loved my ten years as General Manager of Tory Hino and have more recently been a shareholder in a competing truck brand.”
