Daihatsu also announced that they had shortlist two agencies to put their new MPV model on sales on first quarter next year! The name for Daihatsu version of Toyota Passo Sette are not yet reveal. So lets wait what name the Daihatsu want to call the new MPV, perhaps Daihatsu Sirion Sette? =P
With this news also means the MPV i mentioned in the previos post are likely to make way in to INDONESIA! In another words, that also mean that Perodua MPV most probally will based on that model too!

Below are the photo of Toyota Passo Sette (Daihatsu version name uncomfirmed.):






For your information, this new MPV model are based on our Perodua Myvi / Daihatsu Boon (sirion) / Toyota Passo platform. I think everyone should know that actually this 3 model is the same car. Now, the Daihatsu and Toyota had built another MPV version from that sub-compact hatchback. It really look promising.

Power by 1.5 litter which produce 109ps, it will be just fine to move 7 people. A little bit of underpower will be still expected i believe. This MPV lengh is between 4180 - 4190mm and the height is 1620mm.

JAKARTA - Japanese carmaker Daihatsu Motor has short listed two agencies, Oze and Grey Advertising, after calling five agencies to pitch for a car launch brief.

The automobile company is looking for an agency to promote a new MPV car model in Indonesia.
The company’s existing four roster agencies include Dwi Sapta, BN Pratama, Macs 909 and Oze. Daihatsu, which considers Suzuki as its biggest competitor in the Indonesian market, will launch the unnamed brand in the first quarter of next year. The carmaker’s most popular brand in Indonesia is Gran Max, while the country’s largest selling car is Toyota Avanza.

Astra Daihatsu Motor, the Indonesian distributor of Daihatsu Motor, recently announced plans to lift domestic sales by 50 per cent in 2008 to 75,000 and also boost its exports to 46,000 units this year. Indonesia's automotive market is currently recovering from a slump in 2006 after the government lifted fuel prices.
