Daihatsu Substantially Renews "Inspection Result Voice Input System" for Auto Maintenance Support, Adds New Features

Daihatsu Motor Co., Ltd. (hereinafter, Daihatsu) has renewed its "Inspection Result Voice Input System," which is provided to Daihatsu dealerships, and has begun its introduction to dealerships as the newly named "DAVIS" starting May 2026. In recent years, responding to the shortage of mechanics and the increasing complexity of maintenance operations due to advancing automotive technology has become an urgent issue. Daihatsu has been working on the development of the "Inspection Result Voice Input System" to standardize and systematize mechanics' work, improve work safety and maintenance quality, strengthen compliance systems, and also to level out workloads and accommodate diverse maintenance personnel, such as inexperienced workers. This system announces inspection items by voice during vehicle inspection and maintenance, recognizes the mechanic's voice, and automatically inputs inspection results. Since 2018, it has been introduced in 38 dealerships nationwide and is utilized in approximately 30% of all inspection operations at these dealerships. * In addition to the existing "6-month safety inspection" and "12-month legal inspection," it now supports the "24-month inspection (shaken)," which has a large number of work items and complex procedures and judgments, thereby improving quality and reducing the workload on mechanics. * By linking with the core customer and vehicle management systems of dealerships, quotation contents are automatically reflected. * Going forward, further efficiency in input work will be promoted, such as enabling data import from electronic vehicle inspection certificates. * The name has been refreshed to "DAVIS (DAIHATSU Voice Inspection System)." Daihatsu will continue to strive for efficiency and quality improvement in the automobile maintenance field, aiming for a mobility society that enriches customers' lives.
