Commitment to Mini-vehicles as a "Lifeline"

Since their introduction, mini-vehicles have evolved alongside Japan’s growth.

In rural areas where public transportation is limited, the spread of mini-vehicles has exceeded "one per household," making them an essential part of daily life.

With their compact body size that’s easy to maneuver on Japan's narrow roads and excellent fuel efficiency, mini-vehicles truly function as a "lifeline," supporting daily activities and work.

Daihatsu is committed to mini-vehicles and aims to enrich everyday life.
