does nothing for me, Daihatsu screwed up when they stop selling the feroza and rocky - consequently they left Australia, hopefully these will come back tougher with diff locks, lower gearing and 6" suspension lift

I like the styling.
Anyone know how big it is? Is it Feroza/ Rav4 sized or Terios sized? Either way we won't get it here- thanks to Toyota owning Daihatsu.

The back looks like a Rav4 and the front looks like a Holden Cruz....
It looks more designed for the road then 4x4 orientated.. bloody city 4wd jockeys
Very small motor also (1.5I or 1.2d!! What a choice lol) ... Daihatsu are known for doing that ... lol
Wonder if it will have low range... hmm better have
Interior looks nice tho..
There will never be a successor as good as the Rocky

2.8 Turbo Diesel all the Way!!

Yeah, i now, a 2.8td is much better for us, but it would be a nice car for my girlfriend.
For myself i have allready 11 F50's and when i find one cheap, i buy it also.
I am gonna buy this newbie when he is available and i let you now what it is

God damn thats ugly. What planet are you guys from
Im ashamed that i own a car made by the same manufacturer that made the Terios.... New cars suck.
Cheers

looks a bit ugly.. too smooth and soft.. looks more for road than 4wding about.. I wonder where the design idea came from!

Very similar to a Mazda 2 on steriods IMHO!

And the steroids they use must be the crappy generic brand or off eBay... coz they didnt work too well

Hey all, what do you think of the new Daihatsu
its Daishitsu
![Exclamation :!:](./images/smilies/icon_exclaim.gif)
Only good thing would be the uber economical engine in the 1.2D, but only for round town, cause I can't imagine that pulling up muddy hillclimbs too well.
They havent made a good 4x4 since the mid 90's - and that goes for ALL makes.

Hate it, looks far too gay for my liking.
Bet it's as useful as a chocolate fireguard off road.
No clearance and flimsy plastic looking bash guards. Why make 4x4s look like road cars? Keep 'em big, square and chunky!
