Kei, which is pronounced like the letter " K ", means light weight or small in Japanese. This class of vehicles is very popular in Japan due to them being lighweight, economical to own, very easy to maneuver and having a rugged 4x4 design.

Whether it be fitting in tight spaces on Japanese city streets or serving as important pieces of machinery for farmers, kei mini-trucks can do it all. Japanese regulations require strict maintenance on their vehicles. In addition, older vehicles must undergo extensive and costly inspections, so it is customary for people to buy new vehicles after just a few years.

This provides a wonderful workhorse of a vehicle for you in the United States!
