The Daihatsu Cast is a kei car and crossover SUV built by the Japanese manufacturer Daihatsu since 2015. It comes in three variations designated "ACTIVA", "STYLE", and "SPORT". Each can be equipped with either four-wheel drive or front-wheel drive.[3]
Toyota in Japan also sold the Cast as the Toyota Pixis Joy, which was launched there on 31 August 2016.
Overview
The ACTIVA variant is marketed primarily as an off-road capable crossover SUV with a minimum ground clearance of 175 millimeters. The STYLE variant is targeted at customers who desire an upmarket passenger vehicle, while the SPORT is given such features as handling-oriented suspension tuning to increase its appeal to performance customers.[3] The Cast is manufactured in Nakatsu, Ōita by Daihatsu Motor Kyushu, a subsidiary of Daihatsu. A CVT is fitted on all models, and the SPORT variant is sold with a 7-speed manual paddle-shifted mode.[4]
