Smooth and Strong: What the J07C Engine Offers

At the heart of this vehicle is the J07C diesel engine, a 6-cylinder OHV unit with a displacement of approximately 6,700cc. It produces around 220–230 horsepower and offers 65–70 kg·m of torque. This means the HINO MELPHA can climb inclines with ease, maintain speed on highways, and run for long periods with minimal strain.

Designed for quiet operation, the J07C is not only powerful but also passenger-friendly, making it ideal for tourism and daily commuting alike.


Perfect Dimensions for Island Roads

The HINO MELPHA SDG-RR7JJCA measures around 9 meters in length, 2.5 meters in width, and 3.3 meters in height — an ideal size for narrow roads and city loops common in the Cayman Islands. It can accommodate 26–33 passengers, depending on the configuration, and comes with either 5-speed or 6-speed manual transmission (some units offer automatic as well).

Moreover, step configurations (one-step or two-step) and door layouts (front or front-mid) provide accessibility for both urban and tourism use.


Why the Cayman Islands Need This Bus

Island nations demand fuel-efficient, low-maintenance vehicles that can serve in multiple roles. The HINO MELPHA fits this profile perfectly:

  • Tourism and hotel shuttle services

  • School and staff transport

  • Urban or inter-city public transit

The compact but spacious design, along with the reliability of Japanese engineering, gives operators peace of mind in daily operations.
