The first Japanese car to come to HK was a Toyota, I think with a 800 c.c engine. One model for all consumers.
The 2nd Japanese brand was Datsun (predecessor of Nissan), also one model for all. It was the Datsun Blue Bird, with 3 forward gears and gear-change lever was mounted on the steering column.
Then came Isuzu, Daihatsu, Mazda, and Mitsubishi.
No Honda? Yes, no Honda! Honda was only selling motor cycles then. Started out with 50 c.c. bicycle-paddle start engine, then 90 c.c. When Honda became proficient with the small engines, they introduced bigger engines, like 125 c.c. Bid deal eh?
From 125 c.c., then 225 c.c., 3XX c.c., raced extensively on European circuit to create product image.
When firmly established in motor cycles, Honda then entered into motor cars' arena. I think the first model had 600 c.c. engine, then 800 c.c. engine.
Honda also entered into F1, not competitive at all but gained technical knowledge for future models....... |
