Tanto Custom RS “Top Edition SAⅡ”

Tanto Ⅹ “White Accent SAⅡ”

Daihatsu Motor Co., Ltd. (“Daihatsu”) will release a partially redesigned version of the Tanto, its core range of mini vehicles, nationwide on Monday December 14.

Since its introduction in 2003, the Tanto has redefined the standard for spaciousness in the mini vehicle field and created a new category of extra space mini vehicles. With the adoption of the Miracle Open Door in the second generation Tanto in 2007, followed by a full redesign taking all of these elements to the next level for the third generation in 2013, Daihatsu has pursued greater ease of use and gained popularity with many customers, particularly among women with small children.

The new partially redesigned version features new and improved interior styling for the Tanto and Tanto Custom, to enhance product appeal and secure new customers, while still maintaining affordable prices.
The new Tanto Custom has a more refined external appearance, thanks to features such as its large aero-bumper and additional back door plating. The “Top Edition SAⅡ” meanwhile has en even more imposing design thanks to its exclusive aero-bumper configuration.
The Tanto’s interior color scheme has been revamped to give it a greater feeling of quality. To meet the needs of customers who are fond of the Tanto’s cute, stylish design meanwhile, the new Ⅹ “White Accent SAⅡ” grade comes in a two-tone design, with white as the base color.
