larger than Kei
The Daihatsu concept is somewhat larger than their Kei trucks
length 3400 mm 133 in
width 1600 mm 63 in
height 1960 mm 77 in
wheelbase 1900 mm 75 in
part time 4wd with low range
225/75R16 tires
ground clearance 390mm 15 in
This makes the Mud Master C about two feet shorter than a Pinzgauer 710M and three feet shorter than a VW Syncro Vanagon. The vehicle is designed to hold two mountain bikes with wheels on, so there's enough room to lie down in the back of the van (bikes removed, of course).
approach angle 33*
breakover angle 50*
departure angle 43*
There are more photos and description here, including drawings of a pickup version of the truck.

Also included is a short movie that shows the concept vehicle being driven on a rocky forest road. The extra ground clearance is clearly evident in several scenes of the movie.
