The Daihatsu Materia, produced from 2006 to 2008, was a compact minivan designed and manufactured by the Japanese automaker Daihatsu. It was marketed primarily in Japan, and its unique design and practicality made it a popular choice for families and individuals seeking versatile transportation. The Materia was built on the Daihatsu YRV platform, sharing its mechanical components and overall dimensions with its hatchback counterpart. However, the Materia stood out with its boxy, upright design, providing ample headroom and cargo space for its compact footprint.

The Materia featured a spacious and comfortable interior that prioritized functionality over style. It boasted a versatile seating configuration, allowing for different arrangements based on individual needs. The vehicle's interior design was minimalist yet driver-focused, with easy-to-use controls and good visibility. Powering the Materia was a range of fuel-efficient engines, including a 1.3-liter and a 1.5-liter petrol engine. These engines, coupled with the Materia's lightweight design, delivered a pleasant balance of performance and fuel economy. While not marketed outside Japan, the Daihatsu Materia's unique blend of practicality, affordability, and fuel efficiency resonated with Japanese drivers seeking a capable and versatile compact minivan.
