Vehicle Outline

1. Roomy interior and excellent maneuverability
   • A package that has achieved a spacious interior
     While retaining an easy-to-maneuver compact size with a minimum turning radius of 4.6 m⁴, a maximum distance of 1,105 mm has been maintained between the front and rear passengers, achieving roomy rear seats.
   • Both sides of the vehicle feature a one-touch power electric sliding door for easy entry and exit (also equipped with a programmable locking function).⁵
2. Easy-to-use cargo space and seating arrangements
   • Seat mechanisms to support a variety of uses

   • The use of walkthrough front seats allows vehicle occupants to move between the front and rear seats smoothly.
   • The rear seats can be slid forward by 240 mm and, in their front-most positions, allow four carry-on suitcases to be loaded in the cargo space with five occupants in the vehicle.
   • The rear seats can be reclined by a maximum of 70 degrees, providing sleeping space inside the cabin.
   • A dive-in mechanism folds the rear seats forward, creating a completely flat cargo space floor. The cargo space, which exceeds 1,500 mm in length, is able to accommodate large objects.
   • With the deck board reversed and the stain prevention sheet extended, a bicycle can be loaded into the vehicle.
3. Comfortable interior
   • Equipment providing convenience, peace of mind, and comfort

   • A wide variety of storage spaces are provided, including a large, 5-liter, removable center trash bin, and a rotating cup holder that also hold drinks in cartons.
   • Large assist grips (with child grips) to support children as well as adults in getting into the vehicle smoothly.
   • A rear-seat step-up light⁶ turns on in conjunction with the operation of the power slide door, brightly illuminating the door step to ensure safe entry and exit even at night and in dark locations.

   • A 4.2-inch TFT color multi-information display⁷ is used to show information such as warnings and maintenance reminders.
   • Panoramic View⁸
     Panoramic View is useful when parking the vehicle, or negotiating blind intersections. Four cameras that are mounted to the front and rear sides of the vehicle capture video images of everything that is happening around the car, and displays a bird's-eye view on the multi-information display.
4. Comfortable acceleration performance achieved with a newly developed 1.0-liter turbo engine that can produce torque equivalent to that of a 1.5-liter class engine
   • A newly developed 1.0-liter inline three-cylinder turbo engine capable of producing torque equivalent to that of a 1.5-liter class engine (140N･m)

   • Stress-free acceleration performance even on highways, coupled with low fuel consumption
   • Sports Mode provides excellent response to accelerator operation

   • A 1.0-liter engine that has been fine-tuned to achieve a smooth take-off in town and excellent acceleration

   • A horizontally stretching instrument panel expresses functionality and gives a wider impression, while achieving excellent driver visibility
   • The hood is kept low to ensure excellent visibility of the meters that are arranged in front of the driver's seat.
