| Passive Safety
(Body) |
| |
| The bodies of Daihatsu cars comply with all Japanese and European
collision safety standards and rank at the head of their class in
collision safety. Each of our cars reflects the results of extremely
rigorous testing aimed at meeting the world's highest safety targets,
in areas such as full-lap front and side impacts at 55 km/h, and offset
frontal impacts at 64 km/h. |

 The
new Cuore introduces a newly designed platform that improves impact
absorption and cabin rigidity while reducing weight. It features
stronger, straight side members; an impact-dispersing body structure;
and high tensile strength steel for side members, rocker panels,
side panels, and other parts. This advanced new platform is a reflection
of Daihatsu's commitment to continually improving small-car safety. |
| A Body Structure Designed to
Minimise Pedestrian Injury |
Safety measures have been taken to minimise possible injury to the
head area should a pedestrian be struck by the vehicle. These include
impact-dampening devices and impact-absorbing spaces in the fenders,
bonnet, bonnet hinges, and windscreen wiper pivots.

The new Cuore easily meets or exceeds both
Japanese and European collision safety standards. It is subjected
to a battery of in-house tests based on the stringent testing methods
used around the world. It aims to meet the targets that are set
for Daihatsu's own rigorous standards. And it undergoes car-to-car
collision safety tests that closely simulate the types of accidents
that occur in actual driving. The results of all these efforts are
small cars that stand out for collision safety. |
