During the show Indonesian, Daihatsu also unveiled the new philosophy: S Technology (Energy Saving Technology) to reduce fuel consumption and a brand new power 2 cylinder 660 cc turbo engine from 63 hp direct inezione and 100 Nm of torque, paired the CVT transmission with high efficiency, electronically controlled cooling system, start-stop of last generation that turns off the engine below 7 km/h with regenerative braking and a global reduction of friction and weight of all components.
