Background: the Hi-Jet EFI DLI Twincam 12V 4WD

A 1999 Hijet sits in the middle of a production run that has outlasted most of the companies that started building trucks alongside it. Daihatsu supplies the Hijet to other makers for rebadging — Toyota since 2011, Subaru since 2012 — and it was licence-built abroad as the Piaggio Porter in Italy and the Asia Towner in Korea. The Hijet has been in continuous production since November 1960, which makes it the oldest surviving kei nameplate — and in 2021 it took a Good Design Long Life Design Award, a first for Daihatsu.

This Hi-Jet EFI DLI Twincam 12V 4WD carries the EFSE: a fuel-injected 660cc 3-cylinder engine. The EF lives under the seats in a Hijet, which is why the bench tips forward and the service points face upward. This Hi-Jet EFI DLI Twincam 12V 4WD is fitted with a manual gearbox. The trim designation records selectable 2WD / 4WD high.
