Evidence boundary

The identity is documented. The chronology is still open.

This dossier is supported by cited published profiles, not a verified generation timeline. No generation numbers, production periods, family relationships or chassis-to-generation assignments are inferred. The photograph, when available, identifies the exact linked vehicle only.

The ownership model hub keeps the practical model overview; exact technical information and owner resources remain on the linked chassis profiles.

The codes behind the name

Codes listed for this nameplate by MLIT or a manufacturer archive. They are not assigned to a generation: an archive car’s year does not establish which generation a code belongs to.
