The rear seat is also equipped with a 60/40, plus front and rear drag adjustment of 160 mm. This gives total flexibility to compromise the rear leg space / charge. The opening of the tailgate is flush with the cargo floor for easier loading and unloading.

A compartment under the rear floor allows the storage of various items such as tools, while a deep bottle holder is also included in the side of the trunk. Interior bottle holders are available in the front and rear doors and four in the center console.

Meanwhile, the interior is very strange and interesting, for example, the light blue front door armrests and circular front door speakers.

The central panel mounted in acrylic instrument creates a futuristic, three-dimensional driven by a dive, the stage in an arc around the fascia.

Other distinctive features include a gloss black with the color of the audio device to fit air-conditioning vents and a half of high-quality look.

Encouraged, the frugal engine, advanced fuel

The Daihatsu Materia has a new lively and frugal 1.5 liter gasoline engine available with a choice of two five-speed manual or four-speed automatic.

The engine itself is well underway and is similar to that fitted to the Daihatsu Terios compact SUV can also be seen as the Sirion 1.3 liters city.
 

Daihatsu Materia

With dynamic variable Valve Timing (DVVT) that improves traction at low speed and high speed response, housing two camshafts is compact and lightweight, with an alloy head and block.

Power is 103.3 hp at 6000 rpm with a torque of £ 97.4 m is at 4400 rpm for Daihatsu Materia manual or £ 101.8 ft in the automatic. The engine has a compression ratio of 10.0:1 and a bore and stroke of 72 x 91.8 mm.

It is also resistant to the camshaft drive chains that do not require maintenance and can shoot like belt systems.

Five-speed manual and four-speed automatic in both figures have been carefully selected to provide an acceleration from a standing still fun relaxed cruising.

For further refinement, several measures to improve noise insulation. These include asphalt sheets for the facility of passengers, in addition to the fascia, the engine and chassis body isolation. All four doors have double seals for an experience of closing the quality and refining unit.

The first self-regenerating catalyst

The new Sirion 1.3 liters released in 2005 show the first self-regenerating catalyst. This innovation is also standard on the new Copen 1.3 and now the new Daihatsu Materia 1.5 liters.

It effectively extends the life of the catalyst, which reduces maintenance costs and is better for the environment because it keeps "healthier" the catalyst for a strong sense of already low mileage 169 g / km n ' not increase as the engine gets older.

This revolutionary technology works by providing a capacity for self-regeneration of precious metal particles, which normally breaks down.

Using nanotechnology, the intelligent catalyst containing metal ions of palladium, the most sensitive to heat the metals used in catalytic converters.

The temperature and oxygen particles rotate in and out of a crystalline state therefore regenerating and prolonging the cat's ability to purify exhaust gases.

EU-Tuned Chassis

Daihatsu Materia has set the frame for the European markets, and the result is a fast, but damped ride and excellent control of body roll despite the car higher than the average position.

The power steering is well weighted, good straight-line stability and reassuring self-centering. At the same time, front and rear roll bars, combined with a generous low profile tires should be well under control understeer.

The front suspension is MacPherson strut design with a long trip around absorbent, but the anti-roll bar - specially developed for export - to reduce body fat.
