The Mitsubishi Fuso Canter is a line of light-duty commercial vehicle by Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation. The range was primarily available in Japan and some other Asian countries, although it was also sold in the United States during the late 1980s and up current. Manufacturing began in 1962 with the first cars going to Asia. Other European and American countries which saw import or manufactures of the Canter included the Europe, Mid-east and North America. The Asia-Pacific was another market until the early 1970s. In many markets the Canter was very expensive and was replaced by the Mitsubishi Fuso Truck when that model became available for worldwide market in the early 1980s.

The Canter has been manufactured by Mitsubishi Fuso in Tramagal/Portugal since 1980. Tramagal is located 150 km north of Lisbon. The factory achieves a production capacity of 15,000 units per year and shift with approximately 430 employees (status: October 2004). More than 110,000 vehicles have been produced here to date. High production quality, certified with ISO-standards, combined with a rigorous test program and extensive final inspection and quality checks lead to a tough and reliable truck.
