Next Drive Co., Ltd., a Japanese vehicle export company based in Hamamatsu, Shizuoka, is expanding its reach into Tanzania, Zambia, Uganda, Kenya, the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand. The company sources reconditioned cars directly from Japanese auctions and dealer networks, then handles the export process for international buyers.
Japanese used cars remain popular in emerging markets for their durability and lower maintenance costs. In developed markets like the UK and Australia, buyers often seek them for their maintenance records and safety features. Next Drive's CEO Pratap Das said the company focuses on making the import process transparent and straightforward.
"We understand that importing a vehicle can seem complicated, which is why we focus on delivering expert guidance, reliable vehicle sourcing, and professional support throughout every stage of the process," Das said.
The company offers access to brands including Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Mazda, Suzuki, Mitsubishi, Subaru, and Lexus. Popular models among international buyers include the Toyota Land Cruiser, Toyota Hilux, Nissan X-Trail, and Suzuki Swift, according to the company.
Next Drive works with customers to identify vehicles based on budget, specifications, and destination-market requirements. The company said it helps buyers understand auction grades, vehicle conditions, shipping procedures, and import regulations.
Demand for reconditioned Japanese cars has grown in recent years, particularly in African markets where buyers seek reliable transportation at competitive prices. Next Drive has established itself as a supplier in Tanzania and Zambia, where Japanese vehicles are a preferred choice for individuals and fleet operators.
The company also serves customers in Uganda and Kenya, helping importers find vehicles that meet their transportation needs while managing the export process.
Next Drive plans to strengthen its presence in key international markets, particularly across Tanzania, Zambia, Uganda, Kenya, Australia, and New Zealand, while continuing to invest in customer support and vehicle sourcing capabilities.
