1997 Daihatsu Atrai#BUC14824

This 1997 Daihatsu Atrai is a Japanese domestic-market vehicle we imported and are selling directly, finished in Black. Its model code is recorded as V-S120V, which makes it a S120V chassis, and drive is two-wheel drive.

The numbers on this Atrai

On the paperwork it measures 330cm × 140cm × 186cm. The documents give a kerb weight of 860kg, a rated load capacity of 200kg and 8.59m³ of measured cargo volume. Registration on this Atrai records 4 seats and a body type of Kei van, Vans. Carrying 200kg on a 860kg kerb weight is the kind of ratio that only comes from designing the whole vehicle around the load.

The mechanical side of this Atrai

Under it is the EF, a 660cc engine. The EF family powered Daihatsu's kei vehicles for well over a decade, and its longevity is a reasonable proxy for how sound the basic design was. Gearbox on this Atrai is a 5-speed manual gearbox, driving two-wheel drive.

About the 1997 Daihatsu Atrai

Daihatsu positioned the Atrai at the passenger-carrying end of the Hijet range rather than as a pure commercial vehicle. Recorded as a 4-seater, which is where the Atrai's extra trim was aimed. The Atrai is Daihatsu's better-trimmed version of the Hijet van — same underpinnings, more equipment, more attention paid to the cabin.

What an Atrai is good for

A low floor and a tall 186cm roofline mean you load standing rather than crouching. What you see is what we have: a Black Atrai on our lot, not a listing for a vehicle still in an auction hall.
