If you pay attention, there is no different appearance from this car. In fact, if you look more specifically, there are slight differences between the Daihatsu Rocky 1.0 and 1.2.
We will discuss it in the article below.
Which One to Choose? Here are 5 Differences Between Daihatsu Rocky 1.0 and 1.2!
So you won't be confused in choosing between the 2 types of Daihatsu Rocky. Here we explain the differences between Daihatsu Rocky 1.0 and 1.2:
1. Car Engine
The difference you can see between the two is that the 1.0L type has a smaller engine of 998 cc with 3 cylinders turbo charger. Meanwhile, the 1.2L is a development of the 1.0L type, which has the WA-VE engine code with 3 cylinders.
Compared to the previous type, this engine is proven to be more powerful and fuel-efficient. This engine type can be said to be a World Premier, as there are no other models using this engine yet. However, both the 1.2L and 1.0L engine types can be driven at high speeds, even with a heavy car weight.
2. Car Safety Features
The safety features of these two types are very different. The Daihatsu Rocky 1.0L has more complete features. This type uses A.S.A (Advanced Safety Assist), which is a safety feature with 6 functions. Among them are pre-collision braking, pedal misoperation control, pre-collision warning, front departure alert, lane departure warning, and lane departure prevention. These features can reduce the occurrence of accidents.
For the exterior side, it is equipped with features such as rear LED combi lamp, rear spoiler with high mount stop lamp, front LED, and headlamp that make the appearance trendier. In the interior, the car's dashboard has a cockpit driver concept supported by other features such as key free, auto retractable mirror, and start/stop button.
Meanwhile, the 1.2L type does not have the A.S.A safety feature. However, it is no less sophisticated because the Rocky 1.2L comes standard with Dual Airbags for passengers and drivers, seatbelt reminder, and ABS EBD brakes. This type is also equipped with speed sensing auto door lock and speed sensing front wiper. Specifically for the Rocky 1.2M CVT, the safety features are enhanced with VSC (Vehicle Stability Control) and HAS (Hill Start Assist).
3. Price and Variants
Both have different numbers of variants. The Daihatsu Rocky 1.0L is available in 5 variants, namely Rocky 1.0 R TC ASA, 1.0 R TC MT ADS, 1.0 R TC CVT ADS, 1.0 R TC CVT (automatic transmission), and 1.0 R TC MT (manual transmission).
Meanwhile, the Rocky 1.2L type has 6 variants, namely 1.2 X CVT ADS, 1.2 X CVT, 1.2 X MT ADS, 1.2 X MT, 1.2 M CVT, and 1.2 M MT.
The 1.0L type is priced starting from Rp 222.6 million to Rp 245.4 million. Meanwhile, the 1.2L is sold at an affordable price starting from Rp 185.8 million to Rp 223.1 million.
4. Visual Appearance
At first glance, this type seems to have no difference, but in reality, there is. For example, the basic variant of the Rocky 1.2 M MT uses steel wheels. Then, if you look at the front fascia, there is no chromium touch. For color, this type offers only one color, not two-tone color.
Meanwhile, the Rocky Turbo has a trendier appearance and uses 17-inch dual-tone wheel variants. There is also a chromium touch on the door handles. Additionally, the main lighting relies on LED Headlamps.
Conclusion
The explanation above sufficiently illustrates the significant differences between the Daihatsu Rocky 1.0 and 1.2. In fact, any type of Daihatsu Rocky car is highly recommended, as Daihatsu always provides the best features.
