The P-5 was an updated version of the P-3, but featured a bigger 1.3-litre straight-four engine, fitted in the rear of the car. The engine had double overhead camshafts and two carburettors, and was capable of producing up to 140 hp (104.4 kW; 141.9 PS).[1] It was shown at the 14th Tokyo Motor Show in October 1967 as the Daihatsu P-5X.[2]
Two P-5s were entered in the Japanese Grand Prix in 1967.[3] It was entered in the 1000 km of Suzuka in 1968, finishing third.[1] It was then run in the Japanese Grand Prix again, which was held at Fuji Speedway; the No.15 car won its class, and finished tenth overall.[4] Toyota bought Daihatsu in 1969, but the car was used one last time; it finished second in the 1000 km of Suzuka that year.[1]
