The Daihatsu Sportrak, known as the Charade G200 in some markets, was a compact hatchback produced by the Japanese automaker Daihatsu from 1987 to 1998. It marked a significant departure from its predecessor, the Charade G100, boasting a more modern design and an entirely new platform. The Sportrak was available in various trims, including the standard 3-door hatchback, a more practical 5-door variant, and a sporty GTi model. It was a popular choice for its fuel efficiency, compact size, and versatility, making it ideal for city driving and commuting. The Sportrak was powered by a range of four-cylinder petrol engines, including the 1.0L 3-cylinder, 1.3L 4-cylinder, and 1.6L 4-cylinder engine in the GTi. The 1.3L engine was particularly popular, providing a good balance of performance and economy. The Sportrak was praised for its nimble handling, comfortable ride, and surprisingly spacious interior for its size, offering a comfortable experience for both driver and passengers. The Sportrak's design was characterized by its angular, boxy shape, with a distinctive front grille featuring a prominent Daihatsu logo. It featured a clean and functional interior, with straightforward controls and comfortable seating. Throughout its production run, the Sportrak received several updates, including minor styling tweaks, improved engine performance, and enhancements to its interior features and safety equipment. Despite its modest size, the Sportrak offered a surprisingly practical cabin, with ample headroom and legroom for both front and rear passengers. The rear seats could be folded down to increase cargo space, making the Sportrak a versatile option for carrying both passengers and luggage. While the Sportrak may not be the most powerful or luxurious vehicle on the road, it earned a reputation for its reliability, affordability, and practicality, making it a popular choice for budget-conscious buyers looking for a compact hatchback with a long service life.
