A new, facelifted 600 was introduced in 2007 for both the American and Canadian markets. Some CKD kits were imported from Japan. Class 4 and 5 models were replaced by the Hino 155 and 195 in 2012.

The L series' exterior design features new headlamps, and a redesigned bumper. The interior also features a four-spoke steering wheel, a 7-inch Multi Information Display (MID) and a selection of options. The carryover diesel engines remain unchanged.
