Murasaki Booth, Geneva 2019
Brief
We have gathered here to present you what year 2019 means for Murasaki Automotive.
Apart from three brand new engines from our subsidiary company, SNB JidoKo, we also brought one new model to our Line-up. You used to know it as Holo Umbra, a wagon version of the premium liftback, but this year, we are granting it independence.
With Umbra joining the line-up, Murasaki will have in total five cars in their international Lineup.
Without any further waiting, let’s have a look at those five.
2019 Murasaki Sunray
Sunray in Elita Red
It will soon be fifteen years since the last second-generation, so we have focused the development on bringing you worthy successor to the car that won three rallye championships and hearts of anyone who came to own one of these Compact Ecosports.
Presenting you, the 2019 Sunray
Under the Hood
Sunray is powered by two-point-two litre four-cylinder turbocharged engine that produces 210Kw and 283 Nm of torque, paired with either Manual or DCT transmission and our 4Force Smart-AWD system with E-LSD differentials and our Rockwulf traction system for driving off-road.
The suspension is progressive, with electronically-assisted shock absorbers and sway bars, giving the car handling that other cars can only dream of. (Includes even other cars of our own).
Despite the high-power engine, staying true to its origins, and showcasing the level of our technology, Sunray consumes, combined, four-point-seven litres per one hundred kilometers
As for Hybridization, Sunray is to be available in version Sunray Ascent, which will have a smaller engine of one-point-four litres with natural aspiration, generating power for four 60Kw motors, one motor per wheel.
This engine will be made fully made for economy and will run at low-rpm range, with expected combined economy bordering two litres per one hundred kilometers.
Exterior
Sunray is the prime example of our DynamX exterior and Aerodynamics study, focused on sharp, sporty looks, that at the same time, all provide actual benefits to the car rather than just good looks.
You will find things as window-mounted door handles that, while giving the car more clean look, allow user much easier operation of the door that would otherwise be compromised due to small size of the car.
Interior
Sunray’s interior provides sporty feel thanks to fresh and innovative shaping, as well as sportscar-like combination of Primary (Black, Beige, Leather Brown) and Secondary (Elita Red, Danger Yellow, Spring Green, Clearsky Blue) Interior colours.
All information systems are now fully digital, giving the driver precise control of what is happenning inside and outside of the car, and providing him with all the necessary information.
In middle of the Dashboard is combination of touch-screen infotainment system and buttons with real-time visual response. This allows the driver to manually control the car’s functions while driving, without distracting him from the road in front of him.
Sunray will be priced at $27000 / €23500 / ¥2450000.
2019 Murasaki Yasai
Next in the line is our big, reliable, and economical Offroad Crossover.
Previous generations of Yasai were providing their owners with comfort and capability for already 50 years, so it is a big milestone to us to present you already sixth generation of Yasai today.
With combined consumption of 5.9L/100Km, 280Hp, and Premium Interior, we hope it becomes your favorite Crossover on the market.Yasai will be priced at $35000 / €30000 / ¥3640000
2019 Murasaki Umbra
New, yet already known to you.
This year, we have given the Umbra he independence it needed to become the king of wagons it was meant to be, contrary to earlier news, and thanks to genial minds of our R&D who developed more compact,yet more eficient cooling system, we have managed to fit the I6T from Holo to this car, and further tune it to make it fit your off-road and on-road needs. Umbra comes standard with 450 Horsepower, Height Adjustable Suspension, Next-gen Infotainment, and of course lots of space for anthing you need to load into it, whether it is your family, or your new fridge*.

The Wolf Has Come, The Flagship has returned.
As of year 2019, we have descided to switch back to Inline six engines we have abadoned three generations ago, and Holo, along with her bigger brother Umbra are first ones to use them.
Holo has 345Kw, which gives her 0-100 time of 4.3 seconds.
Despite her enormous power and sporty nature, she has modest consumption of 8L/100Km, and calling her interior Premium would be understatement.You know what to expect from Holo, our technological pinnacle.
Prices will soon be at our website. Expect around $50000
