- Roots of the Datsun Pickup Truck.
The Datsun Truck series was born before the war as the Datsun 13 Truck (1934), later being revived after the war (1946) as the 1121. The 2225 was launched in 1947 as an improved version; with its 722cc engine, it had a 500kg load capacity and seating for two. The vehicles produced immediately after the war clearly demonstrate the hardships caused by shortages of materials. To cope with such difficulties, complex manufacturing processes were avoided and some parts of the body were even made of wood.
