Marca HINO Clase CAMION Tipo FURGAN

I don't think it's a typo for "FURGON" because there are multiple "FURGAN" entries--but maybe it's a variant?

A similar entry has Tipo PLATAFORMA, which I've got as "flatbed."

Hoping someone familiar with this term can shed some light on it for me.

Thanks in advance.

Thank you for confirming the typo. I ended up using "box truck" to contrast with the "flatbed" option.
