The 2nd Tokyo Motor Show (1955 . 5/7 - 5/18) The 2nd Tokyo Motor Show Poster Although this show was still oriented toward commercial vehicles, it became all the more popular as Toyota and Nissan unveiled new passenger cars. Admissions reached 784,800 (over 12 days). To compete with popular threewheelers, Toyota showed a light 4-wheel truck, "Model SKB 1000cc" (renamed Toyoace in 1956), Nissan a Datsun Truck Model 120, and Fuji Precision Machinery AFIF 1.5 ton truck. These featured excellent handling, loading capacity, and comfort. Popularity, therefore, seemed to shift from three-wheeled to four-wheeled trucks. In the passenger car division, Nissan s compact Datsun 110 excelled. It had a newly designed body which won the Mainichi Kogyo Design Award. Nissan also exhibited a convertible model. Outstanding also were Toyota s new Toyopet Crown RS and Toyopet Master RR, which had an American appearance. The combined effect was an impression that the domestic car days had arrived. HIH Prince Akihito s visits started from this 2nd Motor Show.
