ALTO is derived from the Italian word "alto", which means like "tall, high, excellent".
Lapin is derived from the French word "lapin", which means "rabbit". This name is conscious of the women who are the target users. Lapin was also named after "it matches the cute design of the car and the rhythm of the name is good".
"LC" stands for the English words "Life-Changing Compact". This name represents a small car that can change your lifestyle. It also is derived from the engine type (LC10) of the Fronte 360, which is the motif of the LC's front bamper design.
For sales purposes, this car is considered a different model from ALTO, so the name "Lapin LC" is sometimes used in various advertisements.
