Trucks of substantial size are produced in Finland by Sisu Auto. The Finnish term sisu, which may be translated as "strength," "persistence," or "endurance," was used to give the firm its name since it is vital to the process of developing a national identity in Finland. The availability of Sisu trucks is relatively low in the heart of Europe. Sales of these massive, powerful vehicles are concentrated mainly in the Russian and Scandinavian markets. SISU also operates a defence branch (SISU Defense) that makes military vehicles.
In 1931, Tor Nessling established Sisu as a corporation. The License Rights for Sisu manufacture were given to the Finnish army in 1943 at the initiative of the Finnish military to ensure truck production throughout the war. There was a formal split between the two businesses once more in 1948. Since the 1950s, Leyland engines have been utilized, and in the 1970s, Rolls Royce engines were installed. It was not until the Finnish government acquired a controlling interest in 1974 that Cummins diesel engines began to replace the older models.
A partnership deal with Renault Trucks was signed in 1997. Partek bought Sisu's controlling shares that same year. Typically, Renault or Caterpillar diesel engines were installed. Kone acquired Partek in 2002, which meant that Sisu was also sold. Since the trucking industry did not match the new owner's business model, Sisu was sold to a Finnish investment group that established a new holding company named Suomen Auteteollisuus Oy. Since then, Sisu has been Finland's lone house, thanks to private investment. Since December of 2010, Daimler AG and Sisu have collaborated extensively. Timber and Rock models are updated to include the latest Mercedes-Benz Actros cabs, transmissions, and engines. Power outputs between 350 and 440 kW are feasible.
Schuller drove SISU trucks in Germany at the Mengkofen location in Lower Bavaria from 2006 to 2010. Windlin, based in Kriens, Switzerland, was the Swiss distributor for SISU trucks.
