 Practicality 3.5/5
Daihatsu Sirion
Daihatsu Sirion
The Sirion is a very inexpensive car. The level of standard equipment is high for a supermini making the Sirion an even more cost effective purchase. Both of the petrol engine options are economical and efficient. Daihatsu is known for producing reliable vehicles, so routine servicing should be all that’s necessary. Running costs and insurance are also cheap.

For a supermini the Daihatsu Sirion has an abundance of space. It can seat four comfortably, but the boot is rather small. Storage space inside the car is very good including a decent glove box and several cupholders.

The car’s controls are easy to understand and conveniently located on the car’s steering column. Daihatsu has kept it simple, yet functional.

The Daihatsu increased the Sirion’s usefulness and practicality when they increased the vehicle’s cabin space. The Sirion is still a supermini, but it is really a spacious supermini and that should work to Daihatsu’s advantage, especially in this sector. Front and rear head and legroom should be adequate for most average sized passengers; the steering wheel adjusts for rake and not reach. The seats are fairly comfortable and road and engine noise is low.

The Daihatsu Sirion provides good accessibility. Front seat passengers will find liding in and out of the car a fairly simple task. The car’s doors are large enough and the seats sit high enough that few people should have any problems with it at all. The back doors are smaller and getting out could be a little tricky depending on the size of the passenger.

Due to the cars size and tight turning circle parking is a very simple task. The car provides excellent forward and rear visibility, and light steering makes the car easy to maneuver at low speeds.

Daihatsu Sirion
Daihatsu Sirion
The Daihatsu Sirion has good driver appeal. It delivers a smooth ride and easy handling. The car has a highly effective braking system and the manual gearshift is in a comfortable position and is easy to use. Both petrol engine options are similar in functionality and performance.

The Sirion would not make a good family car. It is too small to accommodate the baggage or cargo that is associated with a family vehicle. Even though the car probably couldn’t meet the demands of being a family’s primary vehicle, it could be a very useful second car.

The Daihatsu Sirion would make an excellent first car. It’s inexpensive to purchase, running costs are low. Insurance would be cost effective and it is easy to maneuver and park.

Daihatsu makes a great impression with this impressive little supermini. The company has added some much desired safety features and additional cabin space. Even with all of the perks that the company is offering with their standard package many buyers will still opt for the bigger name brands who tend to dominate the supermini market.
