[[Hiroshi Agasa]] drives a classic yellow [[Wikipedia: Volkswagen Beetle|Volkswagen beetle Type 1]], and has owned it for at least ten years. The car has been produced after 1968, because it has front light in 90 degree angle.<ref>Manga Volume 55, File 7, page 10: "Dawn"</ref> Agasa's license plate is 新宿 500, ひ 1-64 (Shinjuku 500, Hi 1-64).<ref name="m15">[[Quarter of Silence|Movie 15: Quarter of Silence]]</ref> The plate kana and number are a pun on "Hiroshi" (Hi-i-ro-shi). Possibly the most frequently appearing car in Detective Conan, Agasa often takes the Detective Boys in the beetle to various interesting places or on camping trips, which are inevitably spoiled by a mystery of some sort. A recurring joke in Detective Conan is that Agasa's beetle frequently breaks down, often while he and the Detective Boys are on a trip, and then a case occurs wherever they stop. Cases where the beetle has broken down include:

[[Miwako Sato]] drives a red colored series 6 FD RX-7. It used to be white, but she repainted it to make it more visible in foggy conditions. It features prominently in the Silver White witch.
+
[[Yukiko Kudo]] drives a [[Wikipedia: Jaguar E-Type#Series 2 .281969.E2.80.931971.29|Series 2 Jaguar E-Type]] in [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case]]. According to Yukiko, it has a 256 horsepower engine and a Le Mans winning chassis(Jaguar D-type won the 24 Hours of Le Mans three consecutive years 1955–1957 and E-type is based on it).<ref>Manga Volume 34, File 11, page 9: "Golden Apple"</ref> Shinichi jokingly refers to it as a "British Princess." Yukiko is a fast and reckless driver, which is perhaps the reason it was sent in for serious repairs that lasted for almost a month a year before the current timeline. She also got pulled over for going 40 mph (64.37 km/h) over the speed limit soon after she got it back. It has a New York state license plate with the number YUK-910 which is a pun on her name Yuk(iko) Ku-do (9-10). Notably, it is right-hand-drive, which means it must have been privately imported to America. It's possible that Yukiko brought it with her from Japan.

The bike explodes and is destroyed in [[Dimensional Sniper|movie 18]]: Dimensional Sniper. The plate number in Dimensional Sniper is 2 新宿, ま 5-31 (2 Shinjuku, Ma 5-31). Either a continuity error, or she simply just bought a new identical bike; Sera is seen riding the same model bike in [[The Scarlet Bullet|movie 24]]: The Scarlet Bullet, for the duration of the film.

She uses it for police work, but it is unmarked; when she needs to use police lights, she attaches a roof mounted rotating beacon to the top of the car. The RX-7 used to be white, but she repainted it to make it more visible in foggy conditions after some accidents occurred in a popular drag racing area. It features prominently in the [[The Witch Enshrouded by Fog|Silver White witch case]]. A combination of the tire squealing and Sato's shrieking gives her car a characteristic eerie sound when she drifts. Sato's license plate is 新宿 300, ゆ 9-01 (Shinjuku 300, Yu 9-01).

== Trivia ==
 +
* The majority of the cars in Japan have the steering wheel on the right side because Japan is left-hand traffic country; however, many of the vehicles driven by the [[FBI]] and the [[Black Organization]] have the steering wheel on the left. While this might be expected for the FBI because they originate from the United States which is a right-hand traffic country, this does not make sense for the Black Organization which has a significant base of operations in Japan. This is probably because left-hand drive vehicles are considered more prestigious than right-hand drive vehicles in Japanese culture because they are typically [[Wikipedia: Grey-market vehicle|privately imported]] (like Gin's car, which was said to have been brought from overseas). In fact, many foreign manufacturers from LHD countries that sell their wares in Japan have officially sold the LHD version of the car there for that added prestige, even if they made a RHD version. Some Mercedes-Benz vehicles, for example, can even be ordered in the buyer's choice of either LHD or RHD.<ref>https://www.mercedes-benz.co.jp/passengercars/buy/estimate/estimate-list.module.html</ref>

Vehicles in Detective Conan is a featured article This is a featured article on the Detective Conan Wiki. This article was featured on July 08, 2012


Cars are often involved in cases.

Detective Conan features many trucks motorcycles, and classic cars.

Protagonists' vehicles

Agasa's Volkswagen Beetle

Hiroshi Agasa drives a classic yellow Volkswagen beetle Type 1, and has owned it for at least ten years. The car has been produced after 1968, because it has front light in 90 degree angle.[1] Agasa's license plate is 新宿 500, ひ 1-64 (Shinjuku 500, Hi 1-64).[2] The plate kana and number are a pun on "Hiroshi" (Hi-i-ro-shi). Possibly the most frequently appearing car in Detective Conan, Agasa often takes the Detective Boys in the beetle to various interesting places or on camping trips, which are inevitably spoiled by a mystery of some sort. A recurring joke in Detective Conan is that Agasa's beetle frequently breaks down, often while he and the Detective Boys are on a trip, and then a case occurs wherever they stop. Cases where the beetle has broken down include:

Yukiko's Jaguar E-Type

Yukiko Kudo drives a Series 2 Jaguar E-Type in Shinichi Kudo's New York Case. According to Yukiko, it has a 256 horsepower engine and a Le Mans winning chassis(Jaguar D-type won the 24 Hours of Le Mans three consecutive years 1955–1957 and E-type is based on it).[5] Shinichi jokingly refers to it as a "British Princess." Yukiko is a fast and reckless driver, which is perhaps the reason it was sent in for serious repairs that lasted for almost a month a year before the current timeline. She also got pulled over for going 40 mph (64.37 km/h) over the speed limit soon after she got it back. It has a New York state license plate with the number YUK-910 which is a pun on her name Yuk(iko) Ku-do (9-10). Notably, it is right-hand-drive, which means it must have been privately imported to America. It's possible that Yukiko brought it with her from Japan.

Jirokichi's Harley Davidson Electra Glide

Jirokichi drives what is likely a navy blue and silver Electra Glide Harley Davidson motorcycle with a sidecar, as seen in the Blue Wonder heist. His dog Lupin typically rides in the passenger sidecar. The exact year and model is undetermined. However, due to his wealth, it's possible that he had one custom made.

Masumi's Yamaha Artesia XT400

Masumi Sera rides a Yamaha Artesia XT400 motorcycle. The Artesia is a reference to Masumi's Mobile Suit Gundam namesake, Sayla Mass, whose real name is Artesia Som Deikun. The bike explodes and is destroyed in movie 18: Dimensional Sniper. The plate number in Dimensional Sniper is 2 新宿, ま 5-31 (2 Shinjuku, Ma 5-31). Either a continuity error, or she simply just bought a new identical bike; Sera is seen riding the same model bike in movie 24: The Scarlet Bullet, for the duration of the film.

Okiya's Subaru 360

Subaru Okiya fittingly drives a Subaru 360. The Subaru 360 is a very small and cheap car, and features suicide doors. Okiya claims his car has some unique quirks that make it difficult to handle, but he may have been lying because he wanted to be the driver. The license plate number is 88 新宿 す 20-80. In the manga, his car's color remains white in all of its appearances, but in the anime it changed from white to red, likely referencing his real name (Akai).

Eri's Mini Cooper

Eri drives a Mini Cooper 1.3i Mark VII. Her license plate number is 新宿 77 せ 77-73 (Shinjuku 77, Se 77-73). It is left-hand-drive, meaning that it must have been privately imported to Japan.

Sato's Mazda RX-7

Miwako Sato drives a red colored series 6 Mazda (Ẽfini) RX-7 that used to be owned by her father, Masayoshi Sato, making it over 18 years old.[12]. She uses it for police work, but it is unmarked; when she needs to use police lights, she attaches a roof mounted rotating beacon to the top of the car. The RX-7 used to be white, but she repainted it to make it more visible in foggy conditions after some accidents occurred in a popular drag racing area. It features prominently in the Silver White witch case. A combination of the tire squealing and Sato's shrieking gives her car a characteristic eerie sound when she drifts. Sato's license plate is 新宿 300, ゆ 9-01 (Shinjuku 300, Yu 9-01).

While disguised as Tomoaki Araide, Vermouth drove a 1st generation Prius while following Jodie Starling and Ai Haibara to the shipping yard.

Trivia

  • The majority of the cars in Japan have the steering wheel on the right side because Japan is left-hand traffic country; however, many of the vehicles driven by the FBI and the Black Organization have the steering wheel on the left. While this might be expected for the FBI because they originate from the United States which is a right-hand traffic country, this does not make sense for the Black Organization which has a significant base of operations in Japan. This is probably because left-hand drive vehicles are considered more prestigious than right-hand drive vehicles in Japanese culture because they are typically privately imported (like Gin's car, which was said to have been brought from overseas). In fact, many foreign manufacturers from LHD countries that sell their wares in Japan have officially sold the LHD version of the car there for that added prestige, even if they made a RHD version. Some Mercedes-Benz vehicles, for example, can even be ordered in the buyer's choice of either LHD or RHD.[31]
