The Daihatsu Consorte is a small

Toyota Corolla Store to sell the all-new Toyota Corolla. This arrangement allowed Toyota to sell the Publica at recently acquired Daihatsu dealerships, giving Daihatsu a car larger than kei class cars. The Consorte used a Daihatsu developed engine, while the Publica used a two-cylinder, air-cooled, flat-2 U
engine.

Initially, the Consorte was available only as a two-door sedan and with Daihatsu's own 1.0-litre FE engine. In June 1971, Publica's 3K 1.2-litre engine was added to the range,[2] both engines only available with 4-speed manual transmission. Facelift model appeared in January 1972.[3] In May 1973, 5-speed manual and 2-speed automatic transmissions added to the line up for 1.2-litre models only, two-door coupe version also added to the lineup.[4] Followed by four-door sedan version in October 1973,[5] but only sold until November 1974,[6] with the launch of the Daihatsu Charmant. The 2-door sedan and coupe were superseded in 1977 (in February for 1.0-litre models and November for 1.2-litre models) by the Daihatsu Charade.
