This commercial, titled “Being Yourself,” shows the Taft heading out to different places—the city, the sea, and the mountains.

It’s striking how it portrays the car as a partner that takes the driver wherever they want to go, as a natural part of their life.

The background music is Vaundy’s “Tomoshibi,” released in 2020.

Its dynamic ebb and flow make it a captivating track, so be sure to listen to it all the way through.

The BGM for Daihatsu Move Canbus “COLORING LIFE: Sea” is ‘Kimi wa Tennenshoku,’ sung by Sakura Fujiwara.

This song is a cover of Eiichi Ohtaki’s original, which was released in 1981.

It’s a classic that has since been covered by numerous artists.

It’s frustrating that you only get to hear a snippet in the commercial—you’re left wanting to hear the whole thing—and it leaves you with a refreshing feeling.

It’s a track that perfectly suits the ad’s vibe and even carries a touch of nostalgia.

This is an introductory commercial for the Move Canbus Theory, which features a calm, mature design.

In the CM, a married couple heads out to play tennis, only to realize they forgot their rackets at home.

After saying, “Well, we messed up,” they switch gears and decide to go for a drive instead.

Their relaxed mindset and the way they enjoy life together make them a truly lovely couple.

The gentle song playing in the background is The Water Is Wide, a Scottish folk tune, sung by Taeko Onuki.

The serene melody pairs beautifully with Onuki’s smooth, understated vocals.

This commercial leaves an impression with its gentle mood, showing Sairi Ito riding in the Canvas Stripes.

In the “Kinda Like That,” “My Mistake,” “I Forgot,” and “It Suits You” versions, conversations unfold between her and the owner of the same car parked coincidentally next to hers, and the unique vibe between the two brings a soft chuckle.

Meanwhile, in the “Face and Butt” and “I Knew It” versions, the dialogue is between Ito and a friend who drives the same car, conveying a comfortable, no-pretenses relationship.

The BGM features Yorushika’s ‘Play Sick.’ Its relaxed tempo and Suis’s pure vocals resonate beautifully.

The title, meaning “playing sick,” adds another layer—reading the lyrics with that in mind makes their content feel even more dramatic.

Daihatsu Atrai 'Declaration' Version / 'Realization' Version

In Daihatsu’s mini van Atrai commercial, “Declaration,” the focus is on enjoying the Atrai as a space for hobbies.

When you think of a kei van, its appeal is often the large cargo capacity, and many people may have a strong image of it as a work vehicle.

However, this commercial showcases examples of using it as a hobby space—like outfitting it for car camping or setting up a desk to use a computer.

It’s a commercial that highlights the appeal of the new kei van, and some viewers may have found themselves glued to the screen.

The BGM is a track by TENDRE, the solo project of Taro Kawahara, a multi-instrumentalist, and it’s included on his first major album, “IMAGINE.” The scatting-like opening and brass sounds are striking, conveying a message of moving forward just as you are.

With its stylish, pleasant vibe as background music, it’s the kind of song you’ll want to listen to while driving, camping, and in many other situations!

Daihatsu Taft 'Set Yourself Free' Version

This is a captivating commercial featuring exhilarating footage of Elaiza Ikeda going out for a drive in the Taft.

The scenes of her leaving the city and racing through nature perfectly express the outdoor image associated with the Rocky.

It’s also memorable for its small playful touches, such as the regional name on the Taft’s license plate reading “Ikeda.”

[Daihatsu Tanto / Tanto Custom TV Commercial] – Kei Car Edition 2021 –

This commercial conveys the comfort and reassuring ride that lets you enjoy time with your family, shown through Yo Oizumi driving the Daihatsu Tanto Custom.

From Yo Oizumi’s gentle smile and that of a father spending time with his family, you can feel the affection directed toward loved ones.

The song that highlights the gentle atmosphere of the visuals is ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION’s “Furetai Tashikametai.” Its tender yet sharp band sound carries a sense of strength that feels like taking steady steps forward.

With male–female vocals featuring Moeka Shiotsuka, it also gives the impression of expressing storytelling and affection.
