Mitsubishi Fuso Canter – light truck from Kawasaki in the 7.5-tonne class FE85B, 107 to 117 kW, 3,100 to 4,500kg kerb weight
Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation, based in Kawasaki, Japan, has built the Canter as a light truck since 1963; Daimler has held a majority stake in the company since 2003. The type designation FE85B points to the 7.5-tonne gross vehicle weight class, also shown in the model names as 7.5T; the suffixes BG, BH and BJ denote trim and chassis variants. The Canter name has stood as a byword for the light Fuso truck since the 1960s and has been carried through several generations and across continents.

The register lists 7 versions rated at 107 to 117 kW from four-cylinder engines of 2,970 to 3,454cc, kerb weights of 3,100 to 4,500kg, gross vehicle weights of 7,490 to 7,500kg, lengths of 6,350 to 8,600mm and widths of 2,200 to 2,550mm.
The Canter ranks among the best-selling light trucks worldwide and, with box, flatbed or refrigerated bodies, serves distribution transport, trades and municipal services; in Europe it competes with the Iveco Daily, Isuzu and Mercedes-Benz Atego. In Japan and Southeast Asia the Canter also appears in numerous special bodies for fire services, waste collection and trade.
When buying: check for corrosion on the frame and the underside of the cab, the condition of the turbocharger and injection system, the clutch and brake system after distribution work, and the body condition depending on use; spare parts run through the Fuso network, which in Europe is linked to Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle outlets.
