The History of Nissan: The Historical Moments that Shaped the Iconic Car Brand (English Edition)

Embarking on its historical odyssey in the early 20th century, Nissan emerged from the amalgamation of several automotive ventures. The saga begins with the establishment of Kwaishinsha Motor Car Works in 1911 by Masujiro Hashimoto, which later evolved into DAT Motorcar Co., and concurrently, the founding of Jitsuyo Jidosha Co. in 1926 by Yoshisuke Aikawa. This laid the foundational stones for what would eventually become the formidable Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. in 1930, a name derived from "Nihon Sangyo," reflecting a commitment to championing Japanese industry on the global stage.

The timeline unfolds with the 1930s witnessing the production of DAT's first mass-produced cars, setting the stage for a journey into the international arena. The mid-20th century marked a turning point with the introduction of the Datsun 240Z, showcasing Nissan's prowess in sports car engineering. Subsequent decades spotlight Nissan's adaptability and growth, navigating through challenges like the oil crisis and embracing technological advancements, including electric vehicles with the Nissan Leaf, which epitomized the brand's commitment to sustainability. The 21st century heralded a paradigm shift, with Nissan embracing the electric and autonomous future, aiming to revolutionize mobility and lead the charge towards a cleaner, more interconnected world.
