Road Tests & Reviews: Mitsubishi Fuso Canter 75 Euro 3

Road Tests:


For some, the Far Eastern cab-over-engine arrangement will always be to the cost of interior space but the current Canter has taken great strides in improving its occupant comfort, with an enhanced driving position and seating.

But it hasn't stopped there. With better soundproofing and the addition of a new engine and slicker gearchange, there's a user-friendliness to this Mitsubishi that has been lacking in its predecessors.

A large part of this has to be attributable to long-term investment in the product, which has tightened all the bolts and smoothed off those rough edges. What has remaind, though, is the manoeuvrability - making the 75 ideal for urban work - along with the payload potential, thanks to its ligther than average chassis.

HOwever, to get the best out of the Mitsubishi's abilities, it's best to stick to the smaller versions to get the balance right.

Pros:

  • Turning circle and nimbleness
  • Lightweight
  • Cab is actually comfortable

Cons:

  • Driving set-up not to all tastes
  • Cabin still not the 'full track' experience
