Summary
![]() Daihatsu Move launched in December 2012 (achieving the best fuel economy among height wagons at 29.0 km/L at the time) |
Daihatsu posted record sales of 653,000 mini vehicles in FY2012, registering new record highs in revenues (JPY 1,076.49 billion) for two consecutive years, in operating income (JPY 13.3 billion) for four consecutive years, and in net income for three consecutive years. Daihatsu estimates posting new records in revenues and profit in FY 2013 as well. However, because of intensified competitions in the mini vehicle market it expects only a slight increase of revenues (JPY 1,080 billion) and operating income (JPY 135 billion).
Daihatsu has held the top share of the mini vehicle market since FY2006. Yet, due to the launch of the Honda N BOX and of a model that Nissan and Mitsubishi jointly developed, competition for higher fuel efficiency is particularly intensifying. Daihatsu will build an integrated engine development facility in Fukuoka, Japan, with plans to shorten the development lead time.
Additionally, Daihatsu will apply technologies for low fuel consumption and low-cost production that it has accumulated in its mini vehicles in Japan to the development and production of multiple types of vehicles in Japan and compact cars in Indonesia and Malaysia.
In Indonesia, administrative procedures for a Presidential Executive Order are under way for a Low cost green car (LCGC) by the Indonesian government. Daihatsu is scheduled to launch Daihatsu AYLA between the end of August and the beginning of September (Daihatsu will also produce its sister model Toyota AGYA).
In Malaysia, anticipating the country's entry into the TPP, Daihatsu will build a new vehicle plant and an AT plant, enhancing the competitiveness of its local subsidiary Perodua.

Daihatsu expects Japanese mini vehicle market to expand to 2.1 million in FY2013
In FY2012, the Japanese mini vehicle sales volume achieved the second highest (1.97 million units) following FY 2006, supported by the eco-car incentives in the first half and each OEM's launch of new models. The mini vehicle market accounted for 37.9% in the automotive market in Japan. In April-June 2013, its share increased to 40.9%.
Daihatsu achieved the largest market share in the mini vehicle market in FY2006 and has retained the top position for seven years in a row. In 2011, Toyota entered the mini vehicle market through Daihatsu OEM supply, thus all the eight OEMs competing in the market. In December 2011, Honda launched the first N series model, the N BOX, boosting sales in FY2012 to 2.2 times year-on-year. In June 2013, Nissan and Mitsubishi launched the first models that they jointly developed, the DAYZ and the eK Wagon. These new model launches led to a fierce competition in the mini vehicle market.
In April 2013, Daihatsu estimates that the mini vehicle market in FY2013 will shrink to 1.8 to 1.9 million units due to the termination of eco-car incentives in August 2012. The company initially planned to sell 630,000 mini vehicles. Yet, Honda and Nissan/Mitsubishi new models boost demand in the market. In addition, there are expectations for last-minute demand before the expected introduction of a consumption tax hike in April 2014, Due to these reasons, Daihatsu revised its FY2013 demand forecast for mini vehicles to 2.0-2.1 million units in July 2013. Daihatsu has not revised its sales plan of 630,000 units, saying that it intends to sell more than 630,000 units.

---|---|---|
Model | Move launched in December 2012 | Wagon R launched in July 2013 |
Low speed collision avoidance | At 4 to 30km/h, the radar detects a vehicle ahead. When the risk of collision is high, the system warns the driver. Then, if no avoidance maneuver is made and the risk becomes higher, the system applies the emergency braking. This will avert a crash when relative speed is around or below 20km/h, or assist in reducing damage at approximately 20-30 km/h. | At about 5 to 30km/h, the laser radar detects a vehicle ahead. When the system judges the collision is unavoidable, it automatically applies the brake to avoid collision or to mitigate damage. The system will avoid a collision at a relative speed of up to 15km/h (which is different from 20km/h of Daihatsu's system based on their philosophy of safety). |

An integrated structure for engine development and production in Kyushu, Japan
Daihatsu will build an R&D center for engines in Fukuoka, Japan. The center is located in the adjacent site of its engine plant in Kurume, Fukuoka, to establish an integrated structure for production and development of engines.
Competition has become fierce to improve fuel efficiency of mini vehicles; Suzuki introduced multiple new models while Honda and Nissan/Mitsubishi launched new models. Daihatsu shortens the development time of engines and new vehicles, aiming for a quicker launch of models with new technology.
Daihatsu enhances engine development/production in Kyushu, Japan
Enhancement of engine production capacity at Kurume plant | In May 2013, Daihatsu invested about JPY7 billion in its Kurume engine plant to increase the number of production lines from one to two. Thus the company boosted production capacity (in 2-shift) from about 216,000 units to 324,000 units a year. |
---|---|
Before the new production line started operations, Kurume plant did not have engine production capacity enough to meet a demand increase in vehicle production at its Oita (Nakatsu) plant. Daihatsu Shiga plant filled the gap. | |
Construction of an engine plant in the adjacent site of an R&D center | Daihatsu announced that it would build its development center, Kurume Development Center, dedicated to development of engines for mini vehicles. It will be located in the adjacent site of its Kurume plant (announced in December 2012). The total investment is worth JPY 14 billion. Operations are scheduled to start in March 2014. |
Daihatsu plans to open a laboratory building for engines and transmissions in March 2014. The company will also open a laboratory building and a test-run course for engines mounted on a vehicle in December 2014. Daihatsu will build a new development structure where production and development are integrated. It is also said that the company is planning to gradually transfer its engine development functions, currently concentrated in the Kansai area in Japan, to the Kyushu area. |
(Note) Daihatsu plans to increase parts procurement from outside Japan including China and Thailand with a plan to assess these parts at its Kurume development center.
To shorten engine and new vehicle development time
Shortening engine development period | Daihatsu is reported to set a target to shorten the development time of engines to six months. By shortening the development time, Daihatsu aims to establish a structure in which new engines with the latest technology will be introduced in a timely manner. Specifically, it will increasingly use the CAE system. In addition, the development and the production divisions will cooperatively work from the design stage, to promote concurrent engineering. |
---|---|
Speeding-up new vehicle development | Daihatsu plans to accelerate new vehicle development by forming a small-scale team. By revamping vertical organizational structure and by enhancing the cooperation of each development stage, Daihatsu will build a structure that rapidly responds to the changing needs. The development team at the Kurume development center has already started working under a new organizational structure. |
Daihatsu has been minimizing R&D expense and capital investment. The company will increase investment for R&D function, in view of the development plan in the next few years. By accumulating technologies, the company will be able to respond to the changing market trends in a timely manner. |
(Note) Daihatsu spent five years developing the KF engine used in its mini vehicles and started commercial production in 2005. It uses the 2nd-generation KF engine upgraded in 2011 on the Mira e:s and the Move.
