DAEWOOTacuma/ Rezzo 2004 - 2008

　　Daewoo couldn't convince too many European customers with its compact-sized minivan Tacuma (called Rezzo in Korea), but it still had to update it if it wanted to keep it on the market.

　　After four years since it launched this MPV, Daewoo introduced a facelifted version of the vehicle, trying to keep it on the market. Yet, it was more of a life-support than a life-savior solution. The Pininfarina-designed minivan was, indeed, improved, but it took a keen eye for detail to notice the differences.

　　Usually, when a carmaker introduces a mid-life cycle update, it also focuses on exterior details that could tell people that there is a new version. The 2004 Tacuma, on the other hand, was just mildly restyled. For some, it looked like a different trim level of the same car. The most noticeable design element that was changed was the front fascia. There, Daewoo dropped the waterfall-style grille and introduced a new one with a horizontal slat. In addition, the bumper was modified, and the 2004 model year sported a lower grille with vertical and horizontal slats instead of an empty gap as before. Nevertheless, the fog lamps looked identical.

　　Inside, depending on trim level and options, customers could have opted for a rear bench with three individual seats, with the middle one folding flat forward. But there was no leather upholstery or fancy materials. A dealer-installed CD player became available on the dashboard since the tape players were mostly outdated.

　　Underneath the hood, depending on the market, Daewoo installed engines ranging from 1.6- to 2.0-liter fueled by gasoline or LPG. The latter had been added to cut the car's running costs. These engines also had to meet Euro 4 emission standards.
