2002 Daihatsu YRV Basic review from Australia and New Zealand
"Nice performance for a nice price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear legroom can be a problem for an adult.
Plastic interior trim can be marked if not careful.
The car is a little too narrow.
General comments?
This car is a minature rocket. Powered by a Toyota made 1.3L engine that revs freely and delivers the power nicely to the front wheels.
This car will sit on 160km/h easily on the highway without strain on the engine. No problems at all with this car, although the left rear door has to be replaced due to it being hit.
The rear seat fold down completely to make a flat floor. There was enough room that I moved a TV unit in it.
Seats are very comfortable and you don't get any discomfort on long drives.
A very good car for a very good price.
Perfect for a second car.
