8 Japanese Automakers And Their First Cars
1) Toyota G1 The company's name was known as Toyoda when the G1 was first revealed in November 1935. Toyoda wasn't too sure of the G1 that they loaded it with many replacement parts on its first road trip to an Auto Show incase something broke on the way. It was so unreliable that it was only bought by people who were sympathetic to local manufacturers and who were willing to endure its many failures.. and they were usually repaired for free by Toyota's factory engineers who used the opportunity to understand the vehicles even better. 2) Honda T360 Launched in August 1963 with a 30hp engine at 8,500 rpm. 108,920 units of this rear wheeled pick up were produced between 1963 and August 1967.. and they all came in blue colour.
