Kei cars are a unique class of vehicles in Japan, designed to be compact, affordable, and efficient, contrasting sharply with the larger American SUVs.
Despite their popularity as grey-market imports, many states in the U.S. are increasingly restricting Kei car registrations, citing safety and regulatory concerns.
Some states classify Kei cars as "off-road vehicles" or cite federal safety standards to justify bans, even though these cars can be safe for road use.
While the federal government allows importing Kei cars over 25 years old, individual state regulations vary widely, complicating their use on American roads.
