Home / Engines

The engines, and every truck that carries them.

Japan's kei trucks run on small engines, most of them 660 cc. Pick an engine to see every model built with it, rebadges included, and the lane each chassis is in today.

Engine families

20 families, oldest makers first.

A truck under 25 can come in only as governed off road equipment, and only if its engine family held an EPA nonroad certificate for that model year. No kei engine family was certified for mini trucks before model year 2010, so a truck built after 30 October 2001 and before model year 2010 has no federal door until its 25th birthday.
