Kei Truck Direct and Boeki USA list the most trucks here, so look at the dealers below before you trust one number. Delivery, title and inspection are not the same at every dealer, and we did not check what each price includes.

By model

Cheapest typical price first. Each model has only a handful of trucks, so the range tells you more than the typical price. Tap a model for its own price list.

Dealers with three or more priced trucks. The other 26 trucks are from sellers with one or two, and are in the totals above. 46 of Kei Truck Direct’s 72 trucks say “Contact for price”, and its own pages say delivery is free. Texas JDM’s three collector editions are left out. Kei Trucks America’s state was not stated.

We are not rating any dealer. No dealer pays us. See dealers by state and the six checks before you pay.

Example trucks

Kei trucks for sale near the typical price

One truck of each model, picked because its price is closest to that model’s typical price, from a different dealer for each model where we can. Each link opens the dealer’s own site: the truck itself for Kei Truck Direct, the inventory list for Boeki USA.

Asking prices on the day we looked. A truck may be sold by now, and these are not offers or recommendations. Photos show the model, not the truck. All dealers by state.

Why prices differ

Why do kei truck prices differ so much?

Four things to do with the differences you see.

Ask for the delivered price
Kei Truck Direct’s own pages say delivery anywhere in the continental US is free. We did not check what the other dealers include. Ask each one for the total, in writing.
Collector editions cost much more
Texas JDM asks $13,795–$27,995 for three collector or six-wheel editions, so compare plain trucks with plain trucks.
4WD is not always dearer
At Kei Truck Direct, 4WD trucks asked a typical $4,700 and 2WD trucks $4,600. That is one dealer’s listings, so it does not settle whether 4WD costs more elsewhere.
Compare the same year and miles
We have too few trucks per model to say how much mileage or year moves the price, so we would rather not guess. Compare trucks of the same year, ask for a photo of the odometer, and check the build month.
New trucks

How much does a new kei truck cost?

Three dealers we looked at sell new Daihatsu trucks and vans, at $21,500–$29,500. That is a different product from a 25-year-old import.

New is not the same as a 25-year-old import

Mini Trucks Northwest lists 2025 and 2026 models. Mini Trucks Ohio says it sells only new trucks (we saw $23,900 and $29,500) and that they are sold for off-road use only. Mega Mini Trucks lists 2025 dump trucks at $27,500. The federal 25-year import exemption on this site is about older imports. Ask any seller, in writing, whether the truck can be registered for the road in your state. Check a truck’s age · Is it legal in my state?

Toyota Scion KEI-01: announced, not on sale

On Nov. 9, 2026, Toyota announced the Scion KEI-01, a small truck designed to meet the federal safety rules for low-speed vehicles (LSVs), with a top speed of 25 mph. Toyota plans to assemble it in Indiana from the second half of 2027 and to sell it first to fleet customers through a few chosen Toyota dealers. Toyota has not announced a price. It is not on sale yet, and your state’s low-speed-vehicle rules decide which roads it may use. Toyota newsroom ↗

Total cost

What will you pay in total?

The sticker price is not the total. Here is the arithmetic for one example, using the typical price from this survey and Connecticut’s sales tax.

A typical truck (asking price)
$7,700
Sales tax (Connecticut, 6.35%)
$489
Total before DMV fees
$8,189

Not included: title and registration fees (your DMV sets them), insurance, and delivery if the dealer charges for it. Your state’s tax and fees are on its page. If you import one yourself, shipping, duty (usually 25% of the truck’s price) and fees come on top.

Questions

Kei truck prices: questions

How much does a kei truck cost in the US?

In our November 2026 survey, used kei trucks of model years 2001 and older asked $4,050 to $13,900, and the typical price was about $7,700. These are asking prices at 26 sellers, not what buyers paid. We did not check build dates, so some 2001 trucks may not be 25 years old yet.

How cheap can you get a kei truck?

The lowest asking price we found was $4,050, for a 2001 Suzuki Carry at Kei Truck Direct. We have not seen the truck. Ask for photos, the papers and the delivered price, and check the build month.

Why is one dealer so much cheaper than another?

Among dealers with three or more priced trucks, typical prices ran from $4,600 to $11,000. We do not know all the reasons. What is included (delivery, title work, inspection) can differ, so ask for the delivered price in writing.

How much does a new kei truck cost?

The new Daihatsu trucks and vans we saw asked $21,500–$29,500. They are not 25-year-old imports, and at least one dealer sells them for off-road use only. Ask whether yours can be registered in your state.

Are kei trucks cheaper in Japan?

We have no sourced Japanese price, so we will not quote one. Importing adds shipping, a duty of usually 25%, and fees. Our import guide has a calculator you can fill in with your own quotes.

Does the price include delivery and the title?

Not always. Kei Truck Direct’s own pages say delivery is free. We did not check what the other dealers include. Ask what the price covers before you pay.

Do prices change?

Yes. This is our first survey, from Nov. 7–10, 2026. A trend needs more than one survey, so we do not claim one.

How we got these prices

Where these prices come from

What we did: wrote down every kei truck with a price, with its source and date, from three places. First, the dealers’ own inventory pages: Boeki USA, Kei Trucks America, AZ Kei Trucks and Mini Trucks Northwest on Nov. 7, 2026; Kei Truck Direct (first page, 72 of 662 vehicles, newest first), Texas JDM, Mega Mini Trucks and Mini Trucks Ohio on Nov. 10, 2026. Second, the listings on our own state pages, seen Nov. 7 to 8, 2026. A truck found in more than one place is counted once. Trucks sold, on their way, new, collector editions, or of model year 2002 and newer are left out of the counts.

What this does not cover: all dealers, all trucks (Kei Truck Direct’s other 590 vehicles, and every truck that says “Contact for price”), what a price includes, what anyone paid, or any trend. We did not check each truck’s build month, so a 2001 model may not be 25 years old yet. The five models are the Suzuki Carry, Honda Acty, Daihatsu Hijet, Subaru Sambar and Mitsubishi Minicab. Surveyed Nov. 7–10, 2026. General information, not buying or legal advice.

The same numbers appear on the homepage and on each model’s page. How we check facts: our method. Source pages: Boeki USA ↗ · Kei Truck Direct ↗ · Texas JDM ↗ · Kei Trucks America ↗ · Mini Trucks Northwest ↗.
