PT Astra Daihatsu Motor unveiled the New Astra Daihatsu Sigra 1.2R at the GAIKINDO Indonesia International Auto Show (GIIAS) 2026, introducing a sportier design, updated connectivity features, and enhanced family-oriented utility to the domestic low-cost green car market, according to company press releases and event reporting.
Exterior Styling and Sporty Upgrades
The refreshed low-cost green car multi-purpose vehicle retains its core seven-passenger architecture while introducing targeted exterior modifications. According to official company disclosures from GIIAS 2026, the front fascia features a dark grille accented by a red stripe, paired with smoked LED headlamps designed to flow naturally into the leading edge of the hood. Along the side profile, Daihatsu retains the vehicle’s compact dimensions while equipping the 1.2R variant with electrically adjustable exterior mirrors that integrate LED turn signal indicators. The exterior styling refresh is rounded out by polished 14-inch alloy wheels wrapped in 175/65 tires, a black accent bar blending into the rear tail lamps, and a new rear roof spoiler noted by SatuMedia.id reporting.
Interior Cabin Improvements and Technology Integration
Inside the cabin, the manufacturer applies matching red accents across the dashboard and door trims to complement the exterior look. According to company announcements, the interior features dark fabric seating surfaces detailed with patterned red accents for a more premium aesthetic. Connectivity upgrades form a central part of the refresh. The vehicle incorporates a modern head unit with native support for both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, allowing occupants to sync smartphones directly with the on-board infotainment system. Maneuvering utility is supported by rear parking sensors across the line, alongside a rear parking camera included on specific trims according to verified vehicle specifications.
Engine Performance and Safety Specifications
Under the hood, the vehicle continues to offer two engine displacements: a 1.0-liter option and a 1.2-liter power plant. Company technical data shows that the 1.2-liter engine generates a maximum output of 88 PS at 6,000 rpm and peak torque of 108 Nm at 4,200 rpm. Occupant protection includes Dual SRS Airbags as standard equipment, while active safety is reinforced with an Anti-lock Braking System and Electronic Brakeforce Distribution available on select variants. These mechanical foundations preserve the vehicle’s established role as a practical daily commuter for Indonesian households.
Market Position and Sales Legacy
The launch reinforces the model’s footprint in the domestic automotive sector. By combining modern cosmetic revisions with contemporary smartphone connectivity, Daihatsu aims to sustain consumer demand for its high-volume family carrier amidst tightening segment competition.
