The company’s marine heritage began with Tokyo Ishikawajima Shipbuilding and Engineering Company in 1893, but it took an additional 17 years for the company to broaden its horizons with the construction of several horseless carriages for detailed evaluation. The first large commercial contract to officially begin vehicle production began in 1916 when the company formed an alliance with Tokyo Gas and Electric Industrial Company to construct Japan’s first self-powered commercial truck. Two years later the company entered into an agreement with Britain’s cottage automotive manufacturer, Wolseley. Soon, a Japanese version of the Wolseley A-9 four-cylinder Touring Car was running through the Tokyo streets. This vehicle is considered to be the first passenger vehicle produced in Japan.
