The name DAT was 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 and development.
