Daihatsu Motor Co., Ltd. (hereinafter “Daihatsu”) has added a new series of Selection grades to its Tanto mini vehicle line-up. The new grades will go on sale nationwide on December 23.

Following its launch in 2003, the Tanto has established a new category of extra-space mini vehicles, thanks to the outstanding spaciousness and ease-of-use of its cabin. The first mini vehicle to be equipped with the Miracle Open Door with built-in pillar and Power Sliding Doors on both sides of the vehicle, the Tanto is highly regarded by customers.

The current, fourth-generation Tanto was launched in July 2019 as part one of the Daihatsu New Global Architecture (DNGA), the company’s next-generation approach to creating cars. Developed on the theme of “a life partner for a new age,” the Tanto is a high-quality, affordably priced vehicle that caters to the needs of customers of all ages. The model is also equipped with the Next-Generation Smart Assist, which features a full range of advanced safety equipment. Indeed, every aspect of the Tanto has evolved significantly, both from a functional and performance perspective.

Now, Daihatsu has added a new series of Selection grades to the Tanto line-up, based on the Tanto X, X Turbo, Custom X, and Custom RS. The three existing pack options—Comfortable Pack, Smart Cruise Pack and Style Pack—are now equipped as standard according to the grade, meaning the new Selection series grades are better value for money than previous grades.

Based on its “Light you up” approach, going forward Daihatsu will continue to provide optimal mobility to every one of its customers, and cater to their needs via its extended range of mini vehicles and compact cars.
