The history of the Daihatsu Car started in 1907, when professors Yoshinki and Turumi from Osaka University established Hatsudoki Seizo Co. Ltd.
The company was involved in the manufacture of internal combustion engines.
In 1919, two prototype trucks were built which laid the foundation for the company to shift direction to Motor Car production.
By 1930, Hatsudoki had launched Japans first domestically produced vehicle, the 500cc Model HA.
In 1951, the company became the Daihatsu Kogyo Co. Ltd.
In 1974, it became the Daihatsu Motor Company Ltd.
These days, Daihatsu is synonymous with small car production.
