Prince Sedan

Automobiles

The Prince Sedan was a compact executive car built in Japan between 1952 and 1957, first by the Tama Motor Company and then, from November 1952, under the Prince Motor Company name, a brand chosen to mark the coming investiture of Crown Prince Akihito. It was the firm's first gasoline passenger car after Tama gave up electric vehicles, and it used the 1.5 litre FG4A four cylinder engine that Fuji Precision Industries developed from a Peugeot 202 unit. The AISH series ran through six revisions from 1952 to 1956, growing wider and slightly taller after a 1952 rule change and rising to 60 horsepower, while the AMSH variant added independent front suspension. Double cab pickup and delivery van versions shared its design. The Prince Skyline ALSI replaced it in 1957.
