Overdrive Funding arranges competitive Fuso truck finance for Australian businesses. We compare 80+ banks and specialist lenders, negotiate the deal and manage everything from start to finish — new or used, from dealers, private sellers or auctions anywhere in Australia.
Fuso is part of the Daimler group and has built its Australian position largely on the Canter, one of the most widely used light-duty trucks in the country. High volume means a deep used market, which means lenders know the asset and can price it confidently.
Fuso models we finance
- Canter light duty — 515, 615, 715, 815, 918 and 4x4 variants
- Fighter medium duty — 1024, 1224, 1627 and 2427
- Shogun heavy duty — 360, 400 and 510 prime movers
- Canter Tipper, Tray and factory-bodied variants
- Crane trucks, pantechs, tilt trays and refrigerated bodies
- New, used, ex-fleet, dealer, private-sale and auction purchases
We only finance trucks located in Australia. See our truck finance options for the full picture, or compare used truck finance if you are weighing new against second hand.
What Fuso resale means for your rate
The Canter's ubiquity is its finance advantage. It is one of the highest-volume light trucks in Australia, so the secondary market is liquid and lenders have plenty of data on what one is worth at any age. Liquid resale is what allows a lender to be comfortable at a sharper rate.
The Canter 4x4 occupies a genuine niche — it is one of the few factory 4x4 light trucks available and is sought after in mining services, remote work, emergency services and tourism. That specialist demand supports resale but can narrow the buyer pool slightly, which some lenders account for.
Who finances Fuso trucks
Fusos are financed by couriers and last-mile distribution, tradies, landscapers, councils, hire fleets, food distributors and remote-area operators. The Canter is often a first truck for a business outgrowing a ute and trailer.

Low doc Fuso finance
Low doc (no financials) finance is available on Fuso trucks up to $500k for the right profiles, assessed on your ABN, GST registration, credit profile and the truck rather than tax returns or financial statements. It typically sits in the 7% to 10% range for an established business buying used. See our low doc truck finance guide.
New or used Fuso?
Used Canters are plentiful, which is good for price but means condition varies widely — many have led hard urban lives with high engine hours relative to kilometres. Service history matters more here than on a linehaul truck, because stop-start city work is harder on a driveline than highway kilometres.
