FactThis little mini-MPV had a trick door before it was common: the rear passenger door could be popped open electronically straight from the remote key fob.
The second-generation Raum, previewed as the ALSV concept car at the 2002 Tokyo Motor Show, was released on May 12, 2003 on the Toyota Vitz platform, with the 1.5-litre engine shared with the Toyota Prius and a 4-speed Super-ECT automatic. On October 20, 2003 it won the Universal Design Prize, a special prize under the Japan Good Design Award. A special edition, the C Package NEO Edition, was added in 2004, and a light facelift in December 2006 changed the front emblem from "R" to a stylized "N", for the Netz distribution network. Production ran from May 2003 to March 2011, and the Toyota Spade succeeded it.

This Presage minivan shares its underlying platform with the Teana sedan and the North American Murano crossover — one architecture doing three very different jobs.
Subaru's family-hauling Exiga got an unlikely STi treatment in 2009 — front spoiler, sport muffler, tighter suspension and a leather Momo wheel — but only 300 were ever built.
YRV stands for Young Recreational Vehicle, a mini MPV built to out-handle its own segment rivals.
The Terraza was Buick's first-ever minivan for the North American market - a badge-engineered cousin of the Chevrolet Uplander, Pontiac Montana SV6, and Saturn Relay.
The restyled 1994 Lumina Minivan quietly made American automotive history: it was the first minivan sold in the US with a power sliding door you could open by remote.
The first-generation Lumina APV minivan was nicknamed the "Dustbuster" by the press for its sharply sloped windshield, which pushed the dashboard far forward of the driver.
Its steeply sloped windshield gave the Lumina APV one of the deepest dashboards ever fitted to a mass-produced car.
The first Presage wasn't really its own car underneath — most of its parts came straight from the Nissan R'nessa, with more shared with its platform twin, the Bassara.
