Yes — JPM Mini Trucks ships directly to Perth. Here is everything you need to know about compliance, shipping, and delivery before ordering your Japanese kei truck.

Why Perth Buyers Are Choosing Japanese Kei Trucks
Japanese kei trucks (軽トラック) are compact, engineered-for-work utility vehicles — a full flatbed at roughly half the footprint of a standard pickup, with a proven engine built for 200,000+ miles. JPM Mini Trucks imports the most popular models directly from Japan: Suzuki Carry, Daihatsu Hijet, Honda Acty, Subaru Sambar, and Mitsubishi Minicab. All available in 4WD with low-range gearing for demanding terrain and working conditions around Perth.

Is It Worth Importing a Japanese Kei Truck to Perth?
Compared to the local alternatives — yes. Here is the honest case:
Value Comparison: Kei Truck vs. Local UTVs and Side-by-Sides
Comparable 4WD side-by-sides (Polaris Ranger, John Deere Gator, or equivalent local models) retail for $18,000–$26,000 USD new. A 4WD Suzuki Carry or Daihatsu Hijet from JPM Mini Trucks — with a fully enclosed cab, heater, windshield wipers, and street-registration eligibility in Australia — delivers the same utility for $9,000–$13,000 USD delivered to Perth.
Japanese Engineering & Longevity
Japan’s rigorous Shaken (vehicle inspection) system ensures only properly maintained vehicles reach the export market. Suzuki and Daihatsu engines regularly achieve 200,000–300,000 miles with basic maintenance. Every vehicle JPM Mini Trucks exports is documented, serviced, and inspected before shipment.
