Nissan

Back in 1911, Masujiro Hashimoto founded the Kwaishinsha Motor Car Works in Tokyo. The company produced its first car, the DAT, in 1914. In 1931, the company was officially renamed Datsun. This name is derived from the initials of the three investors: Kenjiro Den, Rokuro Aoyama, and Meitaro Takeuchi, with "sun" representing Japan. In 1934, the company underwent a significant transformation and the Nissan Motor Company was founded.

The Nissan Ariya won the Caravan weight 1500kg - 1600kg class at the Caravan and Motorhome Club Towcar of the Year 2026.
