Japan is probably known for its diverse, unique, and very exciting culture. From having an excellent sense of aesthetics in almost all industries (even animation!), this is a country that just screams cool!
And the same thing can be said for automobiles from this country. And one such car brand that exudes an awesome sense of style is no other than the Mitsuoka Car Company.
A History of Joy
For a car company that manufactures a lot of vehicles (actually, being the 10th largest carmaker in its home country), it does come as a surprise that Mitsuoka is a relatively unknown brand in the motoring scene. Probably because, and even when the company was launched in the late ‘70s, was that Mitsuoka only manufactured vehicles locally.
But sensing the appeal that the crowd had when it joined 2015 London Motor Show, the car company decided to market their models internationally. And what a great joy that decision made for the company!
The reason on what makes Mitsuoka car models such a hit is not only with their stylish and excellent designs. It all boils down to its core philosophy, which strives to bring back the joy of driving a car.
