Fuso Shogun 530 Range

We went BIG in the 80s. Big hair, big suits, big phones and, starting in 1982, the first big FUSO heavy-duty truck.

Now it’s time to go even bigger with the new FUSO Shogun 530, a 13-litre hauler with the biggest power figure of any Japanese truck – 530hp. It can haul big weights too, up to 70 tonne GCM, and comes packed with advanced safety.

FUSO Shogun 530. Because bigger has always been better

The Fuso Shogun range is the top tier of heavy-duty trucks from Fuso Truck and Bus Australia, built for operators who need serious pulling power and reliability they can count on. Sitting at the top of that lineup is the Fuso Shogun 530,

Powered by the newly developed 13 litre 6R30 engine from Mitsubishi Fuso, the Shogun 530 is made for the kind of work Australian transport businesses deal with every day. Whether you’re towing freight between capital cities or moving bulk loads, this truck gives you the strength and confidence to get the job done without pushing it to its limits.

Shogun 530 Range

The Shogun 530 range is built to suit real Australian workloads. Available in 6x4 configurations, it can be set up as a heavy-duty prime mover for linehaul work or as a heavy rigid truck for more specialised jobs.

With a 26,000 kg GVM and up to 70,000 kg GCM, it’s designed to handle heavy freight without breaking a sweat. Whether you’re towing B-double trailers across long distances or running metro and regional routes, the Shogun 530 gives you the flexibility to match your business needs.

Shogun 530 Key Highlights

Engine Output and Torque

The heart of the Fuso Shogun 530 is its 13-litre Mitsubishi Fuso 6R30, delivering 530 hp (390 kW) and up to 2,600 Nm of torque. In simple terms, it’s got the muscle to move heavy loads comfortably, without feeling like it’s working overtime.

The Shogun 530 torque and power really make a difference when you’re fully loaded. You’ll notice it pulling strongly up hills, merging onto highways smoothly and holding speed without constant gear changes. It makes long-distance driving easier and less stressful, especially when the truck is carrying serious weight.

Advanced Transmission and Drivetrain

Backing up that engine is a 12-speed automated manual transmission that takes the hard work out of driving. It shifts smoothly on its own, helping the truck stay in the right gear whether you’re climbing, cruising or manoeuvring in tight spaces.

Features like Eco Roll help save fuel on long highway runs, while Crawler mode makes slow-speed manoeuvring easier. It’s all designed to make the truck easier to drive and more efficient to run, whether you’re using it as a Fuso heavy-duty prime mover or heavy rigid truck.

Advanced Safety Features

When you’re spending long hours on the road, safety matters. The Shogun 530 comes equipped with an enhanced safety suite, including improved Auto Emergency Braking (ABA 6), upgraded Sideguard Assist (ASA 2.0) with detection and warning on both sides, FBSIS (Front Blind Spot Information System), Active Attention Assist and Lane Departure Warning all designed to help keep you, your load and other road users protected.

These systems help reduce the risk of accidents and make highway driving less tiring. There’s also driver attention monitoring, which helps pick up signs of fatigue. It’s extra support that helps drivers stay safe and confident, especially on longer runs.

Comfort and Technology

The Shogun 530 cab is designed with drivers in mind. There’s plenty of space, a comfortable heated leather ISRI air suspension seat and climate control to keep things comfortable in all conditions.

Everything is laid out clearly and easy to use, with features like Apple Car Play and Android Auto, Bluetooth connectivity, 8” Multimedia unit, navigation capability and camera support available. When you’re behind the wheel for hours at a time, those little things make a big difference.

Benefits for Your Business

Heavy-Duty Freight Capability

The Fuso Shogun 530 is built for businesses that regularly move heavy freight. Its class-leading power and torque make it ideal for linehaul work, heavy combinations and high-payload applications. It gives you the confidence to handle bigger jobs without pushing the truck too hard.

Operational Efficiency

Flexibility is a big part of the Shogun 530’s appeal. It can be configured as a prime mover towing heavy combinations or as a heavy rigid truck with different body types fitted. That makes it suitable for a wide range of industries including freight, logistics, construction and specialised transport.

Versatile Applications

Driver Retention and Comfort

Drivers spend a lot of time in their trucks, so comfort matters. The Shogun 530’s spacious cab, supportive seating and smooth ride help reduce fatigue over long distances. A comfortable, well-equipped truck can also help attract and retain good drivers, something every fleet operator knows is important.

Optional Features and Upgrades

The Shogun 530 can be tailored with a range of factory and dealer options to suit your operation. Whether it’s additional safety features, comfort upgrades or specialised setup requirements, the truck can be designed to match your workload.
