Daihatsu Hi-Max Price
Let's start the review of the Daihatsu Hi-Max from the price aspect of the car. The Daihatsu Hi-Max is a pick-up truck that has a price range of Rp 98 million - Rp 115 million. The price greatly depends on the condition and variant of the car.
Daihatsu Hi-Max Interior and Exterior
Now let's discuss the interior of the Daihatsu Hi-Max. The Hi-Max has a fairly simple interior. This is understandable because the production of this car focuses more on function than on its interior aesthetics.
This simplicity can be seen from the dashboard, which is dominated by black color. Besides making it look simple, the choice of black color on the Hi-Max dashboard makes it look clean even when dust settles on it.
The dashboard is then equipped with a simple 1 DIN Audio Player facility. This facility is suitable for turning on the radio or playing songs from a playlist that you create. Not only audio, the dashboard on the Hi-Max is also equipped with a speedometer that has a digital fuel indicator.
In one of its variants, the interior of the Hi-Max is already equipped with air conditioning. The simplicity of the Hi-Max interior is also evident in the interior of its cargo bed. The inside of the cargo bed is relatively slim.
Like the interior, the exterior of the Hi-Max is also quite simple. One interesting aspect of its exterior is the grille design, which is quite futuristic. Additionally, the presence of two front lights that are halogen lamps is another attraction.
Currently, the exterior of the Daihatsu Hi-Max is available in two colors. Icy White and Ultra Black are the two options.
Daihatsu Hi-Max Handling
As a pick-up truck, the Daihatsu Hi-Max has a good handling system. The Hi-Max handling system consists of the braking system, steering system, and suspension system.
The Hi-Max braking system consists of ventilated discs with a booster at the front, drum brakes at the rear, and a mechanical parking brake based on the rear wheels' movement.
For the steering system, the Daihatsu Hi-Max uses a rack and pinion system combined with electric power steering. The combination of the two makes the Hi-Max steering system very light to use.
As for the suspension system, it is equipped with MacPherson Strut at the front wheels of the car, as well as a rigid axle and leaf spring at the rear wheels. These two components create a suspension system that helps the Hi-Max absorb every vibration present.
Daihatsu Hi-Max Engine Performance
Finally, we come to the last aspect of this Daihatsu Hi-Max review. For the engine, the Daihatsu Hi-Max relies on a 1000 cc engine that has 3 inline cylinders and 12 valves.
This gasoline-based engine is capable of producing a maximum power of 57 Ps/5,000 rpm, and a maximum torque of 85 Nm/4,000 rpm. The engine in the Hi-Max is actually the same as the engine in the Ayla.
That's the long review of the Daihatsu Hi-Max from us. We hope it helps you understand what the Daihatsu Hi-Max is like, from the price to its engine performance. See you in the next car review!
