The company claims that Tanaka brought many achievements during his leadership. In April 2022, KTB has successfully upgraded the the Fuso products from Euro 2 to Euro 4 emission standard. Tanaka also brought KTB into the Euro 4 era by launching the Fuso Canter and Fighter.

Apart from that, KTB has also strengthened after-sales services by adding new dealers, 24-hour standby workshops, parts depots and the establishment of Cabin and Chassis Repair for commercial vehicles.

All improvements continue to be made to meet consumer satisfaction so that in 2023, KTB through the Mitsubishi Fuso brand has succeeded in getting Gold Winner Champion in the Commercial Vehicle category as a WOW Brand from MarkPlus.

The Tanaka era was also marked by trials of the Fuso eCanter electric truck with several logistics companies such as Goto, Wings, Pos Logistik, and others. This electric truck will be officially marketed in Indonesia in 2024.
