Speaker A
it down right away. Why does this car always remain a favorite? Even though there are still many new cars with complete features, it remains a car that is highly in demand in Indonesia.
Speaker A
The first point is that the Terios has a design that looks truly masculine and sporty. Looking at the front, the grille is closed but features black glossy ornaments with a striped pattern in the middle. A piano black model.
Speaker A
Then there is also the Daihatsu logo in the center and a chrome trim on the top section. Furthermore, the headlights already use main LED lights. They are quite bright and come with linear parking lights underneath, though the turn signals are still halogen. The
Speaker A
same goes for the fog lights, which are also halogen. And this Terios R type already gets DRL lights. The model is vertical, next to the fog lights with a housing finished in matte black. In fact, the Terios R type is also
Speaker A
equipped with two corner sensors at the front. So, if you are close to an object in front, it will give an audible signal so you can be more alert. Then for the lower bumper, it looks wide with a matte black finish. Below
Speaker A
that, there is a dark silver ornament accent, so overall, the Terios looks quite sporty, sturdy, and also quite modern. So, it's no wonder that it sells so well. For the engine, it is equipped with a 1500 cc 4-cylinder DOHC
Speaker A
gasoline engine with dual VVT-i technology, where this Daihatsu Terios has a maximum power of up to 104 PS and a maximum torque of 136 Nm.
Speaker A
Interestingly, this car still uses rear-wheel drive, which is indeed very suitable for Indonesian roads. So, one of the reasons people buy this car is because its rear-wheel drive is certainly more robust, especially when used on inclines, and the engine hood
Speaker A
is also already equipped with a silencer. From the side, it also looks dashing, equipped with R17 wheels. The model also looks sporty with a 215/60 tire profile. The front brakes are already disc brakes, and it is equipped with ABS, EBD, VSC, and hill-start
Speaker A
assist as well. Then there are overfenders that add a macho impression from the side, as if the lines connect from the front to the back. For the side mirrors, the housing or cover is finished in the body color, and it is
Speaker A
also equipped with turn signal lights. The glass adjustment is electric and it can be folded and opened automatically, although it is not yet auto-folding.
Speaker A
Then, above the windows, it also gets rain visors. There are also roof rails on the left and right, and the bottom of the windows also gets a chrome strip that adds an elegant impression, complete with pull-model door handles
Speaker A
and a smart entry button. So, friends, if you want to lock or unlock, you don't need to take out your key. Then for the rear door handles, they are also the pull type in body color. And for the rear wheels, they are the same
Speaker A
as the front ones. It uses R17 wheels, although the rear wheels still use drum brakes, unlike the front ones. Overall, the side exterior also looks sporty, looks dashing, and still looks modern too. So it's no wonder that this car is
Speaker A
in high demand. From the rear exterior, this Terios already uses a shark fin antenna. So it's a quite modern, body-colored CRV model. Then it gets a roof spoiler in the back, complete with a high-mount stop lamp in the middle,
Speaker A
and the glass, while not anti-fog, is already equipped with a rear wiper. There is a glossy black ornament strip in the middle that adds a sporty impression, complete with a chrome-colored Daihatsu logo. And on the left and right sides, the lights
Speaker A
also don't seem to have changed since the All New was first released. They are already LED, but the turn signals and reverse lights are still halogen.
Speaker A
There is a chrome-colored Terios emblem at the rear, and to the left, there is a type R emblem that is also chrome-colored. And on the low
Speaker A
the top, it also gets a rear camera. So it does have a rear camera, although it doesn't have a 360-degree camera yet.
Speaker A
And for the lower bumper, it also looks sporty, combined with matte black and a dark silver color in the middle. Then, it also gets a door sill guard at the bottom, finished in matte black with matrix-line ornaments, complete with a
Speaker A
Terios emblem in the center. And on the left side, the muffler is quite prominent, plus it gets reflectors on both sides for safety at night. And looking at the overall exterior appearance at the back, talking about this Terios R type, it still looks
Speaker A
quite sporty, remaining modern and masculine. So it's no wonder it's still popular even now. For the key, it is already keyless or a smart key, the remote model like this has lock and unlock buttons. Then there is the
Speaker A
Daihatsu logo on the back. So there are two keys like this. One can be kept as a spare. So, friends, if you want to lock or unlock, you don't need to use the key itself. You don't need to take
Speaker A
the key out. Just keep it in your pocket. For instance, if we want to enter or lock, just press the button here. It's just that it's not auto-folding yet, so it doesn't fold automatically. And when you want to get
Speaker A
in, it's the same, just press this and the door locks will open. Now let's disassemble the interior. For the front , it is also still the same, dominated by the color black. Almost everything is still plastic, including the armrest
Speaker A
, except for the fabric layer on top, which is still very thin. There is a small drawer, there are power window buttons with auto only for the driver, and mirror adjustments, including folding. Then the door handle is also
Speaker A
finished in chrome like the previous one, and at the bottom is the main speaker. Of course, for both the left and right doors, there are two cup holders and a small door pocket. We step inside; the feel of the dashboard
Speaker A
hasn't changed either. What's interesting is that it's dominated by black, including the ornament strips inside, which are also finished in glossy black complete with faux stitching motifs. Then in the top corner, there is also a tweeter. Then the AC vents have chrome-colored
Speaker A
circles, and in the center, there is a glossy black strip with a dashboard that is certainly still hard plastic, not soft-touch material. Underneath here is the button to start the engine, which is already keyless. There is a VSC button and an idling stop button.
Speaker A
So it can stop and go; when we stop and press the brake for a while, the engine will turn off automatically and later when we press the gas, it will start automatically. Next to it is the front parking assist button mentioned earlier
Speaker A
. So there is a front sensor, and the button is here. Below that is a small open storage drawer, and at the very bottom, it is equipped with three pedals: gas, brake, and clutch. Because as the title suggests, what we are
Speaker A
uncovering is the manual version. For the seat material, it's still full fabric, predominantly black with patterns in the center. So, it is indeed on par with the Toyota Rush as the seat material doesn't use leather yet. But a slight drawback compared to
Speaker A
the Toyota Rush is that the R type doesn't have side airbags. So, there are only two front airbags. Then for the backrest adjustment, it's still manual as well. The seat height adjustment is also manual. It uses a pump model, and the forward-backward
Speaker A
adjustment is manual too. And on the side here, interestingly, there's an additional scuff plate that looks sportier in black, complete with a white Terios emblem. The steering wheel is also quite interesting, already wrapped in black leather with black
Speaker A
stitching and chrome or silver ornaments on the right, left, and bottom. In the center, there is a chrome Daihatsu logo, and of course, it is equipped with an airbag for the driver. On the right, just like the Toyota Rush, there is only a button to
Speaker A
answer phone calls. On the left, there are buttons for head unit audio settings or audio steering switches.
Speaker A
And the steering wheel can be adjusted as well. It can be adjusted for tilt, but not for reach. So, it's the same as the Toyota Rush behind the steering wheel. On the right side, there are switches to turn on the lights,
Speaker A
including an auto option, and on the left, there are switches for the front and rear wipers. To start the engine.
Speaker A
Since it's keyless, if it's manual, you press the clutch, and if it's automatic , you press the brake. Then press the button on the right side of the steering wheel to start it. When we turn it on, the speedometer display is
Speaker A
no different from the Toyota Rush. It is indeed still analog in 2026 like this. The MID is still small in the center, and the speedometer and tachometer are also still analog needle models with chrome circle accents. So, there really haven't been any changes
Speaker A
from previous years. In the center, the touchscreen head unit is still small, 7 inches, and embedded inside. Unlike the Toyota, which is indeed larger and more feature-rich. But in terms of features, it actually has Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, phone connection, Bluetooth,
Speaker A
radio, and when shifted to Reverse, it's equipped with a rearview camera, though it doesn't have a 360 camera yet . Then around it, it's finished in glossy black complete with chrome trim.
Speaker A
There are two AC vents in the center with chrome trim, complete with the hazard light button. At the bottom, the AC settings are already digital. There is an auto option and auto climate control, but the airflow direction is
Speaker A
the same as the Rush. It only directs air to the body, not to the feet yet.
Speaker A
Only one direction. Then there are buttons for the AC blower settings as well. And on the left here, there is no soft-touch material. So, the dashboard is indeed still full plastic material, with a main glove box at the bottom
Speaker A
that is, of course, quite large. There is also a glossy black trim. There is an airbag for the front passenger, and on the left, there is an AC vent with a chrome ring. And there is also a tweeter in the corner. Below the AC
Speaker A
controls, there is a power outlet, a USB port here, and some storage space. But there is no wireless charger here.
Speaker A
And the manual transmission is a standard five-speed. The lever has a chrome color accent on top. Underneath, it is already leather-wrapped with silver ornamental accents. The handbrake is also still the pull-up type with a chrome button. Underneath, there are storage compartments and a
Speaker A
chrome trim that might not be on the Toyota Rush. And on the side, the console box is already leather-wrapped with red stitching. What's interesting about the Terios R type is that it already has a wireless charger. So, friends, if you forget to bring a cable
Speaker A
and your phone supports it, you can use this wireless charger. And if we open the box underneath, it is also quite decent for storage. It's not too big, but it will still be useful. And overall, the dashboard appearance
Speaker A
hasn't seen any design changes for the 2025 model. And when compared to the Toyota Rush, it still has a lot of similarities. Above, the rearview mirror is still standard. There is also a place to store glasses here. The
Speaker A
cabin lights are also still halogen. Then on the right and left, there are sun visors, but the vanity mirror is only on the left side. And this has additional lighting, plus there is a retractable grab handle for the front
Speaker A
passenger on the top left. As for the seatbelts, they are of course the same; in the front, they have three-point locking, pretensioners, and force limiters for safety. Above the seats, there are adjustable headrests, but they are not yet leather-wrapped,
Speaker A
consistent with the seats, and interestingly, it also comes with a fire extinguisher and a set of floor mats with the Terios emblem. Now let's explore the interior of the second row.
Speaker A
The door trim in the second row is also the same as the front; there haven't been any changes from last year, dominated by black from top to bottom.
Speaker A
Including the armrest, just like the front, there is no soft-touch layer. Then there is a small compartment here, power window buttons, one cup holder, and the door handle is also chrome-plated like the front. And below , there is another speaker for the left
Speaker A
and right doors, a cup holder, and a fairly large door pocket. And down here , it still gets scuff plates like the front, which have the Terios logo.
Speaker A
Let's get inside. So, now we are in the second-row interior of the Terios R manual type. We can see here that the cabin space is actually still quite roomy for the knees. It's just a bit unfortunate that there's still a bump
Speaker A
down here because of the rear-wheel drive axle and the chassis construction . Then, the headroom here is still quite high; for my height of 157, there's still over 10 fingers of space.
Speaker A
There are retractable grab handles here on the left and right, three rear AC blowers with controls on the right, and a yellow cabin light like the front one . Then, all the seatbelts here are already three-point on both the left
Speaker A
and right sides. It's just that the middle one remains the same and hasn't changed, still only two points. And one minor drawback of the Terios is that there are also only two headrests. So if there is a passenger in the middle,
Speaker A
they won't get a headrest, and there's no armrest either. Besides that, another drawback is that there's no ISOFIX down here either. Then, in the front section, there are pockets that will certainly help us if we want to store some items. And below that, there
Speaker A
is one small cup holder and also a power outlet underneath. Folding the third-row seats is just a one-touch operation. It will fold completely like this, making the access quite spacious.
Speaker A
However, the car is indeed quite high. So we actually need a grab handle, meaning we have to hold on from above when we get in. And a slight drawback in the third row, in our opinion, is that the seat is fixed. So the backrest
Speaker A
cannot be reclined any further. It is already at its maximum like this. Although it is indeed equipped with two headrests and patterned seats. So it's a bit tight here if the second-row seats are not moved forward.
Speaker A
Additionally, the seatbelts are already three-point locking on the left and right, and there are storage compartments, cup holders, and speakers too. And interestingly, there are also retractable grab handles here for the third row. Opening the trunk is also
Speaker A
still manual. You open it like this. And talking about the trunk, it's standard for a three-row car, just enough. It's not very spacious if all seats up to the third row are in use.
Speaker A
So it's enough to fit two cabin suitcases and a small bag. But what's interesting about the Terios or other Daihatsu cars is that you get a cargo net for free. So you don't need to buy a cargo net anymore. And if you need
Speaker A
more trunk space, the folding mechanism for the third-row seats hasn't changed either. So, fold the backrest twice, then pull the strap and push it forward like this. It can be half-folded like this, or both sides can be folded as
Speaker A
well. And both fold forward, although it will slightly reduce the space. So, maybe if there is a facelift or an update later, hopefully, it will be flat with the floor like in the Xenia.
Speaker A
So you will get more spacious luggage space. And here in the luggage area, there is still lighting, but there is no place for the toolkit or jack, because the jack and toolkit are still stored under the front passenger seat.
Speaker A
And one of the advantages of the Terios is that it still has its spare tire under the luggage area. Because they still prioritize that if there is an emergency, it will be more practical for you to change it than having to use
Speaker A
a sealant fluid. And this also means if you are far from a workshop, you can change it yourself. It's quite practical, so it makes the driving experience more comfortable, without worrying about getting a flat tire on the road. So, we have just unpacked the
Speaker A
full specs and features of the Daihatsu New Terios R manual type 2024. So, you have seen for yourselves that the R type is quite complete. For our daily commuting needs, this is more than enough. Especially with its masculine,
Speaker A
macho look from the front, side, and rear, everything looks cool, and it has rear-wheel drive which is very suitable for Indonesia. Especially if you have hobbies like camping or mountain climbing. This is definitely one of the right cars to choose. Do you agree with
