4. CLASSIFICATION OF EXPORT VEHICLE SPECIFICATIONS

(1) Results of a detailed analysis of past export achievements conspicuously show features
by area, such as the adoption of snorkel-type air intake in the Middle East and Africa and the
adoption of two-speed rear axle in Latin America. Equipment and accessories show a similar
tendency.
Deciding specifications by country and order looks as if it satisfies the requirements of the
owners greatly. However, besides making production and sales control of the manufacturer
and the sales agents complex and increasing the cost burden of the manufacturer, it results
in unsatisfactory supply of accessorial parts arising from confusion in specification control
(parts picked erroneously or missing parts, delay in delivery), raising fears of betraying the
owners’ reliance on the vehicles in the
long run. There have been such instances.
Export specifications have been therefore,
established as shown in Fig. 1 on the basis
of results of inspection trips made by
MITSUBISHI FUSO engineers in various
places overseas and experience acquired
through business talks conducted, field
service report and orders received so far.
Production and supply activities have
been conducted in accordance with the
classification of export specifications.
