The Datsun 17 was a motor vehicle of the Japanese automaker Datsun and was introduced in April 1938.

History

The Datsun 17  was the last model of the small car line, as the car production was largely stopped due to the war.

The Datsun 17 was little more than a face-lifted version of the previous Datsun 16 , the few changes contributed to the material shortage bills and created an even more spartan interior design. 

At the end of 1938, the last version of the Datsun 17 were produced while the Datsun 17 Truck was still being produced in war time until 1944.
