The model's “aeronautical” lines leap out at first impact. A longitudinal polycarbonate cockpit dome emerges on the left fascia while the right side in a central position houses the BMW 12-cylinder 7 Series engine with hydrogen generators. The two argonauts are arranged in tandem in the fuselage, sunk into an ergonomically comfortable and super-assisted wing. The acronym “VAD.HO” refers both to the Vadò region, the Moncalieri industrial area that has been home to Giugiaro's company headquarters since 1974, and to the hydrogen propulsion adopted (H-go).

In December 2006, the seventh generation was unveiled in both the version for the Japanese market called Mira and for the European market called Cuore, where it has been marketed since September 2007, profoundly revised in line designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro. The external dimensions of the European model have been slightly increased from the previous series, reaching a length of 3,460 mm and a height of 1,530 mm, while the width remains unchanged. The Japanese version, on the other hand, remains compliant with keicar approval standards with length limited to 3,395 mm. It is available only in a 5-door version while in Japan the 3-door is produced only in Van trim.

Its mass production began in 1995 and continued until 2023. The Move model was designed and put into production to strengthen Daihatsu Motor Company's position in the kei-car segment, which is the segment of micro-cars using small displacement engines and low kerb weight typical of Japan. The fourth-generation Move was introduced in October 2006 and its design was a departure from the boxy look of the previous generations.

This comes after the highly praised front-end styling is also transferred to models already in production, such as the 156 and 147. The production Brera, while retaining the general layout in the original design, takes advantage of the Fiat-GM premium platform shortened in wheelbase from the Alfa 159, which uses a front end with deformable high wishbones and a steel 3-arm Multilink rear end with aluminum hub carriers and telescopic hydraulic dampers and coil springs. The car, homologated as a classic 2+2-seater, features a less extreme powertrain than the prototype version, and replaces the upward-rotating doors with a more classic opening.
