The Daihatsu Charade Life Line

Daihatsu Motor Co., Ltd. is actually a manufacturer of cars and vehicles that has its main headquarters located in Japan. This auto manufacturer is known for its designing and crafting of compact cars and small cars. In Japan, these small and compact cars are known as “kei jidosha”. At present, Daihatsu also researches and finds interesting and useful information on hybrids as well as on two stroke diesel engines. 

Passenger car models from this manufacturer include the toy model of the Daihatsu Midget Applause, the Atrai, the Be-Go, the Boon, the Ceria, the Charade, the Compagno, the Consorte, the Copen, the Cuore, the Hijet, the Max, the Midget, the Move, the Rocky, the Sirion, the Taruna, the Terios, the Valera, the Xenia, and the YRV. 

Since 1977, the Daihatsu Charade has already been roaming the streets and roads. Unlike the usual small and compact car from the Daihatsu company, this vehicle is actually a large compact car. It has been crafted so as to be able to have a point of comparison with its competitors. The year that this vehicle first rolled off the manufacturing plants, that first generation of Daihatsu Charades, or was known to be the G10, came available as a hatchback with either three doors or five doors. The power came from a 993 cc engine with three cylinders. It held the capability to create 50 hp JIS. 

The next batch came in 1983 and this next batch of Daihatsu Charades was known as the G11. The same body styles remained. This time, however, it held several variations in its 1.0 liter engine with cylinders. Among those was the turbocharged version of this that was capable of creating 68 hp JIS and a Diesel version as well. Made available for the first time was a five speed manual transmission. Two versions were made with this batch and it was the square eye and the cat eye versions. 

Two more generations followed after the G11. The third generation came in 1987 and the last generation found its way in 1994. The third generation of 1987 was came to be known as the G100 series. As per the fourth generation of Daihatsu Charades that entered the scene in 1994, that group was dubbed as the G200 series. The crafting and production of the Daihatsu Charade stopped completely in 2005 and was later on replaced by the Daihatsu Sirion and the Daihatsu YRV.

The Contour Years

Replacing the Ford Tempo is the Ford Contour. It strictly competes with the Honda Accord, the Chrysler Cirrus, the Dodge Stratus, and other compact and mid-size sedans. This vehicle is crafted and manufactured by the Ford Motor Company in the United States and has been made available in a couple of trim levels including GL, LX, and the sporty SE. This vehicle exudes performance, refinement and an overall execution. 

This vehicle has a standard dual airbags and optional features comprise of antilock brakes, and traction control. Also, this vehicle’s other features are bumpers that could withstand a five mph impact, and a base engine that was a 2.0 liter 4-cylinder engine that could produce 125 horsepower that works well with a 5-speed manual shift or the optional electronic 4-speed automatic transmission. 

This vehicle suffered from several mishaps in several of its parts. The automatic transmission had a faulty manual lever position sensor. If the parking brake cables held some ice during the winter month, this will not allow the brake to release. Its dashboard lights were somewhat faulty with the charge warning lights glowing. Since its production in 1995, it already suffered from performance faults. The list included front seatbelt anchor tabs cracking, fuel-tank filler reinforcements leaking, the metal shield on its plastic fuel-filler pipe developing stating charge during refueling that could be an ignition source, passenger airbags inflator body cracking, overheating at head lamp and wiring-harness terminals that could result in open circuit for instrument lights, parking lamps, and tail lamps, front coil springs fracturing as a result of corrosion in several extreme environments, and owner guide manuals not being sufficiently clear. 

However, because of these mishaps, the Ford Contour underwent several drastic changes so as to fully facilitate a greater driving experience for its users. In 1995, the Ford Contour reduced its chrome stripes on its bumpers and its body had been colored. The front seats were now recessed in the back so as to improve rear seat leg room. A year after, the traction control and heated mirrors were no longer an option. The remote fuel door release was removed. Made available were interior trunk lights, tilt steering wheels, and power antennas. The year 1997 made the Ford Contour sport new designs in its front and rear ends. The roof line was altered and the rear deck shorted so as to further improve rear seat headroom. For the last year of its production, 2000, each trim level received different changes and restyling. 

The 2000 Ford Contour held a DOHC 24-valve V6 engine with aluminum block and heads. It had a Ford EEC-IV engine control system with port fuel injection. It had a power of 170 bhp at 6250 rpm and a capability of 165 lb-ft. of torque at 4250 rpm. It sported a transmission of a 5-speed manual. It held a curb weight of 2910 lb.
