Top 11 Kei Cars of the 1970s – A Must-See for Classic Car Fans: "The Decade When Yellow License Plates Changed Japan's Roads."
Is your or your family's beloved car from that era included in the ranking?
Please share your fond memories and anecdotes from that time in the comments section!
This time, we're taking a trip back in time to the turbulent 1970s, when kei cars once saw a decline in sales due to emission regulations, only to be reborn with the 1976 standard revision, changing from 360cc to 550cc!
From the Suzuki Alto, which defied convention with its 470,000 yen price tag, to the Mighty Boy with its cut-off coupe rear, the last two-stroke Jimny, and the day the first turbocharger was fitted to a kei car, we'll thoroughly explain the wisdom and determination that the Showa era entrusted to "kei cars," along with the historical context of the time!
