Nissan Datsun DB Series

The Datsun DB series was introduced in 1948 as a more modern, ponton-bodied complement to the Datsun DA. It was based on pre-war Datsun designs, themselves closely based on the Austin Seven. A lower-cost range with the same underpinnings, called the DS series, took over from the DA and was sold in parallel. The cars shared their chassis with the contemporary small Datsun trucks, which sold in considerably larger numbers.
