The Daihatsu D-Bone was a minimalist sports vehicle concept
similar in theory to something like a mild off-road Ariel
Atom, except with less power and more creature comforts.
The D-Bone was first introduced at the 2004 Geneva Motor
Show. The 'D' in the name stood for 'Dynamic' while 'Bone'
was meant to underline the fact the concept lacked much
of the bodywork or skin found on more conventional cars.
Mounted in the front of the Daihatsu D-Bone was a turbocharged,
659 cc, three-cylinder engine which produced 63 horsepower.
This was connected to a 4WD transmission and thanks to
moderate ground clearance the D-Bone was capable of mild
off-road travel.
The interior of the Daihatsu D-Bone had absolutely no
weather protection at all, except for the windscreen.
Because of this all the interior trim and materials are
100 percent waterproof.
