JAF (Japan Automobile Federation) Yamaguchi Branch (Branch Manager: Hirohiko Sato) will hold the "JAF Day 4WD Meeting in Kusunoki Komorebi no Sato", its first-ever event gathering four-wheel drive vehicles (hereinafter "4WD") such as SUVs and RVs, at Kusunoki Komorebi no Sato (Ube City, Yamaguchi Prefecture) on Sunday, May 17.

Following the "Open Car & Retro Car Meeting" which has been enjoyed by many fans for years, this is a highly anticipated project starting as a new event for car enthusiasts.

At this event where 4WDs gather, we have prepared a variety of exhibition and experiential content that can be enjoyed not only by enthusiasts but also by families, offering content to "see, learn, and experience" throughout the day.
