Daihatsu has officially unveiled the Basket concept at the Tokyo Motor Show.
Featuring retro styling and a two-piece removable roof, the concept looks like a picnic basket-inspired Jeep Wrangler. As the name implies, the B-pillar resembles the handle of a basket when the roof is lowered.
Inside, the concept features a modern interior "that evokes the feel of linen material" and a truck-like rear bed behind the seats.
Based on the Mira, the Basket has a 660cc engine and an all-wheel drive system.
Comments
Maybe next year a sequel can be based on the classic lunch box with the arc-shaped lid. A bowling ball bag car would also be beyond wonderful.
the basket, IMO it looks like the homosexual version of the Jeep wrangler (LMFAO) and a weird convertible Austin Maxi!!!
