FactThe RegiusAce was a luxury-oriented rebadge of the H100 HiAce sold at Toyopet and Vista dealerships, with its engine under the floor between the front passengers.
The RegiusAce arrived on 5 July 1999 as the Vista Store's twin of the fourth-generation (H100) HiAce, identical apart from its name and dealer, and offered only as a van and as Welcab mobility vehicles, never as a passenger wagon. Petrol engines were the 2.0-litre 1RZ-E, a 2.4-litre 2RZ-E added in December 2000, and from July 2003 the new 1TR-FE; the diesel was the 3.0-litre 5L. It was replaced by the H200 in August 2004.

Owning one
We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.

The second RegiusAce put its gearshift in the instrument panel so front-seat passengers could reach the rear from inside; it ended in 2020 when Toyota merged its Japanese stores.

Chevy pitched the Astro as the anti-minivan, telling buyers life was too big for one, while it rode on a rear-wheel-drive truck frame.
The IIHS rated the Astro Poor in a 1996 crash test, yet 2001–2004 Astros later had the lowest driver death rate of any US passenger vehicle.
The boxy, unglamorous Astro quietly posted one of the best real-world safety records in America: IIHS found 2001-2004 models had the fewest driver deaths per million vehicles of any passenger vehicle on US roads.
The third-generation Tourneo Connect, released in Europe in October 2021, is a rebadged fourth-generation Volkswagen Caddy, assembled by Volkswagen in Poland.
Ford beat the 25% "chicken tax" by importing the Transit Connect as a passenger van — rear windows and seats included, then stripped out and recycled once it landed in the US.
Ford spent years in federal court over the second-gen Transit Connect: in June 2019 the US won its appeal, and judges ruled the van was cargo-only — ending Ford's workaround for the 'chicken tax.'
GM sold a rebadged Nissan NV200 as the Chevy City Express for four years, then killed it in 2018, citing weak sales and the fact that its parts weren't even compatible with GM's own parts catalog.
Its name is a pun: "S-Cargo" means "Small Cargo" but sounds just like escargot — French for snail, the shape the whole van was built to resemble.
