The 300 series was renewed already one year after its initial introduction. The cab changed from black to silver-gray, and the interior from brown to gray. The seat was also new. The engines gained more power and torque thanks to a new injection pump and a faster-reacting T-controller. The front axle differential lock changed from automatic to engageable, like in the larger models.

New models in Finland included the small four-cylinder 362 and 365. The 362 was a budget model, which featured, among other things, the old 8+2 transmission. Cost-saving features on the 365 included cross-ply tires. Turbos were also installed on the 365 in Finland. In other countries, three-cylinder models were also available with the 8+2 transmission. A Swedish specialty was the 340 T, which matched the power of the later 352 model but was equipped with the 340 model’s low cab.
