Car Sharing
System The convenience of the automobile is offset by the CO2 emissions it produces and the traffic congestion it causes. In recent years, trials of car sharing as one means of alleviating these issues have been moving forward throughout Japan. Daihatsu has leveraged the know-how gained from actively participating in these trials to develop a Community-Based Car Sharing System that combines the company's proprietary ITS technology with its core competence of small cars. This innovative system was adopted in April 2004 and is being used by Kansai's large new Saito development. It is also being used in low-emission vehicles and vehicles used in public welfare. Daihatsu is committed to continuing its support for environmentally responsible car sharing. |

Public Welfare
Transportation Service Support System
The aging of Japan's population is driving a rapid increase in demand for public welfare transportation services, which help transport individuals who have difficulty moving about on their own from their homes to hospitals and other care facilities. Friendship i System, which Daihatsu released in June 2004, automatically sends trip information from the vehicle and allows the fleet to be managed from a computer located in a central office. Through its Friendship Series of public welfare vehicles and its Friendship i system for streamlining public welfare transportation services, Daihatsu is committed to helping build a society where all individuals can experience the pleasure of moving about outside their homes. |

When the driver enters his or her
user number with either the main unit's keypad or the IC card when
getting into or out of the car, the vehicle sends trip information
and can print a usage statement on the spot. |
