The Canter FG 4X4 will be a prime consideration for applications where its superb four-wheel drive attributes are required such as rural fire service, rescue, mining and emergency work. Like all Canters, the 4X4 versions which come in either single cab or versatile crew cab models, are spacious and well appointed with features such as air conditioning and AM/FM/CD. Because of its widespread use in rural fire service and emergency applications the Canter FG 4X4 is not equipped with power windows or central locking. Mitsubishi Fuso make no apologies for these omissions saying that in a life threatening situation such as a bush fire it is imperative the driver and occupants have total control over their egress from the cabin.

There are three models in the Canter FG 4X4 range. The short wheelbase single cab, the medium wheelbase single cab and a medium wheelbase crew cab. They all utilise the FE Canter wide cab design thereby providing vast levels of safety and space for the occupants. The reinforced front door structure has side-impact beams for improved protection and the box frame and chassis members will deform longitudinally in the event of a frontal collision. The cab floor is reinforced and the instrument panel is impact absorbing.

The Canter FG 4X4 is powered by the much improved 4M50 -3AT7 four cylinder 4.9 litre diesel engine which is both turbocharged and common rail injected. To meet strict ADR 80/02 emissions exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and a catalytic converter is employed. The transmission is a five-speed manual with synchromesh on second to fifth gears and there is a PTO opening on the left-hand side of the case.
