The Daihatsu Materia, also known as the Daihatsu YRV in Japan, is a compact minivan produced by the Japanese manufacturer Daihatsu from 2006 to 2012. It was available in both three-door and five-door configurations, and was marketed as a practical and versatile vehicle aimed at young families and urban dwellers. The Materia was built on the Daihatsu YRV platform and shared its underpinnings with the Toyota bB and the Subaru Justy. It was designed to be both stylish and fuel-efficient, with a compact footprint and a spacious interior. The Materia was powered by a range of petrol engines, including a 1.0-liter 3-cylinder and a 1.3-liter 4-cylinder engine. The 1.0-liter engine was available in both naturally aspirated and turbocharged forms, while the 1.3-liter engine provided more power for those seeking a more spirited driving experience. All engines were paired with either a 5-speed manual or a 4-speed automatic transmission. The Daihatsu Materia was praised for its practicality and versatility. Its tall roofline and boxy design provided ample headroom and cargo space, while the sliding rear doors made access to the rear seats a breeze. The model's interior was also well-appointed, boasting comfortable seats, a user-friendly dashboard, and a range of convenience features. Despite being a compact vehicle, the Materia offered a surprisingly smooth and comfortable ride. It was also known for its fuel economy, thanks to its lightweight construction and efficient engine options. The Materia was a popular choice in Japan and several other Asian markets. However, it was not sold in Europe or North America, which limited its global reach. The production of the Daihatsu Materia ended in 2012, replaced by the newer Daihatsu Boon. Despite its discontinuation, the Materia remains a popular and sought-after vehicle in its respective markets, appreciated for its practicality, fuel efficiency, and unique design.
