e:S

A new eco-car that reveals the future role of mini vehicles

·The e:S is based on a current platform with the wheelbase shortened to 2,175mm. Although it has compact exterior dimensions, the four-seat intelligent package can accommodate four adult passengers.
·In addition to a compact body, the use of slim, lightweight seats and the replacement of many materials with lighter versions limits total vehicle weight to 700kg.
·The e:S is equipped with a conventional mini vehicle engine fitted with an EGR and an original combustion control system as well as an Idling Stop System.
·The high environmental performance of mini vehicles is maximized by combining existing technologies to achieve fuel efficiency of 30km/liter* without the use of an electric motor or other systems.
* Fuel efficiency under the 10-15 Japanese test cycle; measurements made by Daihatsu.
