The Daihatsu Hijet is a small van and pickup truck made by Daihatsu. Despite the apparent harmony between the Hijet name and Toyota's naming scheme for it's trucks and vans (Hiace, Hilux), the name "Hijet" has been in use for Daihatsu's kei trucks and vans since at least the 1970s, over 2 decades before the 1990s merger of Toyota and Daihatsu. The name "Hijet" when transliterated into Japanese is very similar to "Midget," the name of one of Daihatsu's other mini-trucks. Image File history File links DaihatsuHijet123. ...
