The 520 was launched in May 1965. It became the 521 in February 1970 and, to meet the demands of the era of fast travel, the 1500 series was introduced. The 1300 too was subject to a minor change, adding a new radiator grille with horizontal emphasis and egg-shaped fender mirrors. There were 3 models available in the commercial-use Datsun series: the standard truck, van, and pickup.
