Having surprised the market with its 700 series 7.5-tonner a year ago at the CV Show, there's now a new 18-tonner on the Hino stand, which was just getting the finishing touches to its decals when CM happened upon it. The 1826 '500 Series' rigid has a extended 'rest cab' like the latest Isuzu. Behind the 250hp engine sits an Eaton nine-speed gearbox.
