DISADVANTAGES:
The comfort provided by seats is just satisfactory and it is not suitable for longer distances. The performance of the car is just satisfying which again causes trouble on longer routes. The performance of the AC is also not too good that making the ride very uncomfortable on hot summer days. Its cost value is another issue for the customers because it is available at a high price as compared to the other 660cc competitors with new and advanced features. Spare parts of Mira are not readily available making its maintenance value very high and giving an average resale value as compared to locally assembled competitors available in the market.
Final verdict:
Mira is available in the latest version of 2019 with an improved and redesigned facelift and added safety features providing greater mileage of 32.5 kilometers per liter. Many new 660cc cars are also introduced in markets with many advanced features just like FAW V2 providing new technological features that were lacking in the 2016 model of Mira.

Although new companies are on their way to conquering the small hatchback segment cars market in Pakistan it will take time to gain the trust and reliability as gained by Daihatsu especially its Mira that is most popular among ladies, students, and Uber or Careem usage.
