The Foton Miler is a series of light-duty commercial trucks produced by Chinese manufacturer Foton. Positioned as a modern generation of Foton light trucks, the Miler variants includes single-cab and double-cab chassis-cab, box (van) and flatbed configurations intended for urban and regional haulage, last-mile delivery and small freight operations. The model series was introduced in the early 2020s with regional launches in multiple markets during 2023–2024.[4]

History and markets

Foton Ollin V in China

Originally launched in China in 2022 under the Ollin V name, Foton began marketing a more premium version as the Miler in select markets from 2023 and carried out formal marketing launches in 2024 in countries including Chile and Guatemala, as part of the company's expansion of its global commercial-vehicle lineup. The Ollin M name was later used in China for the more premium version.[4]

Design

The Miler adopts a cab-over layout with a short forward overhang for maximizing cargo volume within a compact overall length. Interiors and the driver environment were updated compared with some earlier Foton light-truck lines, with features commonly offered in the series including air conditioning, power steering, ABS with EBD, digital instrumentation and basic infotainment depending on regional specification. The platform is offered with multiple wheelbase and cargo-box-length options to suit local operator needs.[5]

in Latin America, standard equipment includes:

Digital instrument panel (~7-inch) plus infotainment display (~9-inch), with Bluetooth, mirror link, rear-view camera.[4]

Air conditioning, power windows front (at least), central locking, remote key, electric mirror adjustment, cruise control; supportive seats for driver comfort; good sound-insulation and interior trim per regional versions.[4]

Powertrain and chassis

Regional specifications most commonly list a 2.0-litre turbodiesel engine producing roughly 92 kW and 320 N·m of torque for the standard Miler in many export markets; other powertrain options and higher-displacement variants (including 2.5 L units) are offered in some regions and for heavier-duty variants. Transmission is typically a 5-speed manual (ZF-sourced 5-speed gearbox appears in several regional specifications). The chassis employs conventional ladder-frame construction with leaf-spring rear suspension suitable for cargo loads. Braking is hydraulic, with front discs and rear drums; ABS and EBD are available on many trims.[6][7][8][9]

In the Malaysian market, the 2.5-L diesel version produces about 96 kW (≈129 hp) and 320 Nm torque, with a ZF 5-speed manual transmission.[10]

In Chile, the gasoline 2.0-L variant gives about 144 hp and 195 Nm, with fuel consumption of ~9.5 km/L in mixed driving cycles in media reports.[4][11]

Payload capacity in Chile variants ranges from ~1,445 kg (double cab low-bed) to ~1,650 kg (single cab chassis / low bed), enabling a gross vehicle weight (GVW) of around 3,500 kg in some licensing jurisdictions.[4]

Variants

The Miler is offered in several configurations:

  • Box/van — closed cargo box for parcel and goods transport.
  • Flatbed — open cargo bed for general freight and construction materials.
  • Crew cab/double-row — models with additional seats for work crews in certain markets.[12]
  • Harabas truck — Exclusively for the Philippines market, a Harabas truck variant named the Foton Harabas Miler is offered.[13][14]

Markets

Foton has offered the Miler across multiple international markets through regional distributors and local dealers, including countries in Africa, Latin America and parts of Asia. Dealers and localized marketing material show country-specific equipment and emission-compliance levels (e.g., Euro III / Euro V depending on market and engine). Major regional marketing and brochure materials are available from Foton country sites and distributors.[15][16][17][18]

Some versions of the Miler in the Chilean market qualifies as a vehicle drivable under lighter licensing (class B) despite its "truck-like" appearance.[4]
