Mazda Mazdago
Under Mazdago , the three-wheeled, open or closed flatbed trucks from Toyo Kogyo , which were produced from 1931, were sold. The front wheel hung on a spring-loaded fork like a motorcycle and was steered with a handlebar, while the rear was an open bed. They were driven by an air-cooled single-cylinder engine with an interlocked gearbox. Initially they were sold by Mitsubishi in Japan . It was not until after the Second World War that the company established its own dealer network. The first model was the Mazda DA with a weight of 705 kg, which initially had a 482 cc engine with 6.9 kW (9.4 hp) and three-speed gearbox. With reinforced engines and bodies, the Mazda DB , the Mazda K-series and finally the Mazda T-series followed . They were also very successful in exporting to China as early as 1932 .
