Daihatsu Motor Co., Ltd. ("Daihatsu") is pleased to announce the nationwide launch of partially improved models of its mini passenger vehicle CAST and Special edition models on June 20, 2016.

Launched in September 2015, CAST is a series of mini vehicles Daihatsu developed to meet the demands of users who value individuality. The result was a mini car based on key concept of supplying people with options to freshen up their lives. CAST models feature high quality with inviting and universally appealing design. In addition, Daihatsu successfully achieved affordable pricing by developing three CAST models-ACTIVA, STYLE, and SPORT-to meet the diversifying needs of users.

With the latest improvements, Daihatsu increased the number of interior and exterior color variations, one of the features that have made the CAST series popular, and has made changes to make the models more attractive. In addition, Daihatsu has created Special edition models of ACTIVA and STYLE versions, called the PRIME COLLECTION, with faux leather seats to generate a touch of high class.
