Hitachi Kawasaki and Tcm have a joint venture for the 330 , 370 and zw550.
The models are basicly Kawi's , but maybe there is a Hitachi motor in it?

put the new 115 and the hit 550 next to each other... they both have the Isuzu engine to.
Only Hitachi does not have the equivalent of the zv135 in the range
But KCMA builds and sells the kawi's , but are separated from Kawasaki heavy industries..
Wasn't Kawi the first loader with articulated steering?
