Daihatsu Motor Co., Ltd. (hereinafter “Daihatsu”) announced today that it has published additional information related to its new TAFT mini crossover, which is scheduled for launch in June 2020*1, to its website.

Designed to be a “Tough & Almighty Fun Tool,” the TAFT is a crossover that fuses the elements of a mini passenger vehicle and an SUV. It seeks to be a partner that can be actively used in both everyday and leisure scenes, and to make every day more enjoyable.

All TAFT grades come equipped as standard with the “Sky Feel Top,” a large glass roof above the front seats. Its expansive field of view inspires a sense of both space and the extraordinary.

The TAFT also features the new “Backpack Style” packaging concept. Tough yet light, this style is inspired by people who, for ease of movement, take backpacks with them when they go out. The front seats are designed to be a “crew space,” providing excitement and a variety of storage options. The rear of the vehicle is a “flexible space,” featuring rear seats and a luggage space that can be freely arranged; it combines active agility with outstanding luggage capacity for both everyday and leisure scenes.

The TAFT is available in a total of nine colors, including three new earth tones. The new mini crossover also takes advantage of the new DNGA platform to provide outstanding basic performance, including a stable ride, superb maneuverability, and nimble acceleration.
