Daihatsu Motor Co., Ltd.

Daihatsu Motor Co., Ltd. (hereinafter “Daihatsu”) announced today that the total number of orders for the new Move Canbus has reached approximately 26,000 units in the first month after its launch on July 5, 2022. This is four times more than the monthly sales target of 6,500 units, indicating a strong start for the new models.
The new Move Canbus offers two different worlds: Stripes, a model that is neat and refined, while inheriting the cuteness of the first generation, and Theory, a model with a high-class, serene atmosphere.
The new models have further improved user-friendliness by adding new functions to the well- received features in the first generation, such as the floor-mounted rack box, and the power sliding doors on each side. Furthermore, the quality of the driving experience has also been improved through the adoption of Daihatsu New Global Architecture (DNGA) and the introduction of the new Turbo grade.
Daihatsu apologizes for any inconvenience caused by difficulties such as parts supply shortage from suppliers, and will strive to make all efforts to deliver products to customers as soon as possible.
