Daihatsu Materia

Car Reviews » Daihatsu » Materia

The Daihatsu Materia was manufactured by a Japanese Car manufacturer and is a mini MPV. This model was based on the platform of the Daihatsu Sirion. It is almost identical to the Toyota Bb. It is available with a 1.3 or a 1.5L engine.

The exterior of the Materia has an usual design. It is box shaped with a square front and odd looking rear. The lights are also square which adds to the odd look of the model. The windows have also been blacked out and the model has been fitted with 15inch multi spoke alloy wheels.

The interior of the car is spacious. There is plenty of room for the driver and all of their passengers. The high roof makes the car feel larger than it actually is. There is also plenty of leg and elbow room. The driving position is quite high, so the driver can see most of the road in front of them. The seats are uncomfortable, even on short journeys. The seats also feel slightly cheap.
