Originally designed to be so small due to a lack of resources after World War 2, Kei cars (from kei-jidosha meaning light automobile) have become a common site in cities around Japan. Their small size and efficiency make them the go to car for many of Japan's urban dwellers.

To qualify as a Kei car, a vehicle must be less than 11 feet long, four and a half feet wide, and six and a half feet high. Despite the fact that there are more than 50 models of Kei car put out every year, the mini cars can be easily identified by their yellow license plates with black lettering.

Compared to American cars, Keis barely even sip gasoline. One of the more popular models, the Mazda Autozam gets 50 miles per gallon. These cars have also been packed with as many advanced features as possible in an attempt by manufacturers to differentiate their vehicles."
