Fuel economy is from Japan’s official tests and is usually better than you’ll see on UK roads. MLIT doesn’t list power or torque.

EBD-DA65T

Listed 2006–2013. The EBD prefix (our explanation, not MLIT’s) means petrol goods vehicle or bus certified to Japan’s 2007 emissions rules. Check EBD-DA65T against ULEZ and clean air zones.

Each row is one version as MLIT lists it. A version can appear twice when MLIT gave figures on two tests that year. Low-emission stars and trim names aren’t shown. MLIT gives fuel economy in km/L; the mpg figures are our conversion to UK gallons. Japanese tests are gentler than real UK driving, so expect less.

Check a DA65T before you buy

Make sure the car is what the advert says: the chassis number on the V5C should start DA65T-, and the engine and gearbox should match one of the versions above. Our free check reads the UK MOT history and compares it with the chassis code.

Questions

What engine does the DA65T have?

MLIT lists the Suzuki Carry DA65T with K6A 658 cc petrol.

What fuel economy does the DA65T get?

Officially between 15.8 and 16.8 km/L (about 45–47 mpg), depending on the version, on Japan’s own tests. Real-world figures are usually lower, especially against the older 10-15 mode test.

How heavy is the DA65T?

Between 710 and 780 kg kerb weight, depending on the version.

Is EBD-DA65T the same as DA65T?

Yes. EBD-DA65T is the full model type: the letters before the hyphen are Japan’s emissions code, which changed as the rules were tightened, and DA65T is the model code. The chassis number starts with DA65T-.

About these figures

The model types, engine codes, capacities, gearboxes, drive, weights, seats and km/L figures are copied from MLIT’s yearly lists of cars on sale in Japan each March, so “listed” years are list years, not exact production dates. The English model names, mpg conversions, emissions code explanations and chassis number matching are ours. Lists before 2013 were printed as PDFs that we read by machine; where an older list gives an engine code that doesn’t match its capacity, we’ve used the figure the same model type has in other years. Check anything that matters against the car’s own papers. Spotted a mistake? Email [email protected]. All Suzuki model codes.
