MV Series vs. HV Series

When you need a work-ready truck you can rely on, the International MV Series and HV Series are both worthy of your shortlist. That’s not to say, however, that these two models are one and the same. Read on to compare the MV Series vs. HV Series to learn more about their similarities and differences, and to decide which is right for your business needs!

What is the MV Series?

The International MV Series is a medium-duty truck available in three configurations: delivery truck, dump truck, and towing truck. It can be had with a daycab, extended cab, or crew cab, ensuring you have all the room you need during your daily operations around Fort Lauderdale and Miami. This truck includes popular models like the MV607, and adapts to a variety of vocations, including:

• Ambulance/Emergency medical
• Beverage truck
• Box van
• Construction dump
• Fifth-wheel
• Recovery truck
• Reefer
• Stake body
• Utility/Utility with boom arm

MV Series Engines

The MV Series offers two engine options for an ideal blend of power and efficiency for medium-duty applications:

• Cummins® B6.7 Engine — generates up to 360 hp and 800 lb-ft of torque.
• Cummins® L9 Engine — generates up to 450 hp and 1,250 lb-ft of torque.

What is the HV Series?

Need something more powerful for your Riviera Beach business? The International HV Series is a severe-duty truck that spans concrete, construction, municipal, and utility operations. Like the MV Series, the HV Series is available with a daycab, extended cab, or crew cab — whichever best suits your needs for space. It serves the following vocations:

• Fifth-wheel
• Refuse
• Snow plow
• Construction dump
• Concrete mixer 
• Construction crane
• Utility with boom arm

HV Series Engines

The HV Series configurations are available with three engine options — two of which are the same engines that can be had with the MV Series. The third is an International A26 that produces up to 500 hp and 1,750 lb-ft of torque. This is the lightest engine in its class, as well as the quietest engine you can find inside an International truck. When it comes to engines for vocational applications, this is the one you want under the hood.
