The {{nihongo|Daihatsu Move Canbus|ダイハツ・ムーヴキャンバス|Daihatsu Mūvu Kyanbasu|lead=yes}} is a retro-styled semi-tall kei car with rear sliding doors manufactured by the Japanese carmaker Daihatsu since 2016. Despite adopting the "Move" nameplate, the car shared its underpinnings with the Tanto instead.
Etymology
The name "Canbus" is a combination of the verb "Can", describing the car's ability, and the noun "Bus", describing the car's bus-like shape and inspiration from the Volkswagen Type 2, which was also known as the "Bus".{{cite news |last=Stocksdale |first=Joel |date=2016-09-16 |title=Daihatsu's Move Canbus could very well be the world's cutest car |url=https://www.autoblog.com/2016/09/16/daihatsus-move-canbus-worlds-cutest-car/ |website=Autoblog |publisher=Yahoo! |location=US |access-date=2020-01-01}}

Sales
In July 2022, Daihatsu set a sales target at 6,500 units for the Move Canbus, at the time of transitioning from the first to second generation. The Move Canbus managed to exceed the target in 2023, but Daihatsu's enforced four-month production halt after a December 2023 safety test scandal meant numbers were down considerably for 2024.
