Nissan Fact File 2000 23

The Birth of DatsunThe first DATSON was manufactured in August 1931 by Nissan’s predecessor, DAT Automobile Manufacturing. The name DATwas formed by combining the first letters of the family names of Kenjiro Den (D), Rokuro Aoyama (A), and Meitaro Takeuchi (T),the founders of Kaishinsha, the forerunner of DAT Automobile Manufacturing. DATSON thus means the son of DAT. In 1932, SON was changed to SUN. In the following years, DATSUN played a leading role in supporting Nissan’s growth anddevelopment.
