OverviewExcerpt in Japanese
ダイハツ工業は、2022年（令和4年）7月19日にスズキ、トヨタ自動車及びCommercial Japan Partnership Technologies (CJPT)と共同でハイゼットのバンを改造した商用軽バン電気自動車を開発し2023年度（令和5年度）に発売すると発表した。生産はダイハツ工業が行い、他の二社はリバッジして販売する。2023年（令和5年）5月17日にはプロトタイプを公表するも、同社のダイハツ工業認証試験不正問題の影響から2025年度（令和7年度）に延期としていた。2025年7月24日から開催された第32回ガイキンド・インドネシア国際オートショーで、「e-Hijet concept」を展示した。 2026年（令和8年）2月2日に「e-ハイゼットカーゴ」として発表・発売された。前述した「ハイゼット電気自動車」では改造車扱いとなっていたが、「e-ハイゼットカーゴ」では改造車を示す(改)の記載が無く、既存のハイゼットカーゴとは異なる車両型式「S781V」が与えられている。パワートレインにBEVシステム「e-SMART ELECTRIC」が搭載され、モーター・インバーター・減速機を一体化した「e Axle（イーアクスル）」を後輪駆動軸上に、リン酸塩リチウムイオン電池を用いた大容量バッテリーを床下に配置。
