Daihatsu Move L175

2006 – 2010 — Japan

The Daihatsu Move is a popular kei car/city car manufactured by Japanese automaker Daihatsu from August 1995 to June 2023. This vehicle was created as a response to Suzuki's Wagon R model that was introduced in 1993. The initial design of the Daihatsu Move was by the Italian design house I.DE.A Institute, and subsequent generations continued to enhance upon this original design. The Move is constructed based on the Mira chassis but features a taller body for improved interior space and comfort. In its first generation, known as the L600 model introduced in 1995, the Daihatsu Move was designed by I.DE.A in Turin, Italy. This generation set the foundation for the vehicle's overall aesthetic and functional features. Key points include: - The first-generation Move featured a design that was a collaboration between Daihatsu and I.DE.A Institute in Turin, showcasing a blend of Japanese and Italian design elements. - The Move's unique design aimed to maximize interior space within the constraints of the kei car segment, providing a spacious cabin despite its compact size. - With its taller body compared to the Mira chassis, the Move offered increased headroom and a more upright seating position for passengers, making it a comfortable choice for urban driving. Overall, the Daihatsu Move has been a successful model catering to drivers looking for a compact and practical vehicle for city commuting, with each generation building upon the innovative design of the original model
