Datsun (ダットサン) is a former brand used by what is now Nissan Motor Co, in order to sell their automobiles in North America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand.
The company was originally founded in 1911 by Sotaro Hashimoto and named DAT. It was the first Japanese automobile manufacturer. It was later renamed Nissan.
The financiers who provided the money for the original DAT Automobile Company from which the name is based were Mr. Den, Mr. Aoyama and Mr. Takeuchi. The name was for a very short time DATSON in the 1920s, but later changed to DATSUN when SON was learned to mean "failure" in Japanese.
