| 2013 Daihatsu Kopen Concept |
The Daihatsu Copen was discontinued last year but this concept version, called the Kopen Concept, coming at this year's Tokyo Motor Show will showcase its potential return. The name sounds "konfusing" because they replaced the C with a K in the naming. It's now KOPEN, not COPEN. Never mind about that but the "koncept model" (pun intended) is powered by a 660cc turbo engine and that's it.
