Its head office was in Mukden{{r|teikanshuu}}, the largest city of Manchukuo. HistoryFounded on March 26, 1934, Dōwa Automotive was a 50-50 joint venture between the South Manchurian Railway Company and the government of Manchukuo. Following World War I, the Imperial Japanese Army saw the need for increased mechanization, and the Kwantung Army began to import foreign-built vehicles, including the Model 25 Vickers Crossley Armored Car. After the formation of the Empire of Manchukuo, the Kwantung Army's economic policy of self-sufficiency in major strategic heavy industry spurred the need for locally-built trucks and automobiles. Dōwa began with the assistance of Tōkyō Jidōsha Kogyo (the forerunner of Isuzu) to build vehicles from knock-down kits, as the infrastructure of sub-suppliers was gradually increased to permit more and more local content. Initial production was estimated at 5000 vehicles per year, many of which were copies of the Crossley design.{{fact|date=October 2018}} Dōwa Automotive was absorbed into the new {{nihongo|Manchurian Automotive Production Company|満州自動車製造株式会社|Manshū Jidōsha Seizō Kabushiki Kaisha}}, a state combine and subsidiary of the Manchurian Heavy Industries in 1940.
