Well if you don't want to wait for the Estima Hybrid or import one because it's too darn expensive ($55k!!!

), what about one of these?

One of our tour guides in NZ had one of these:

NZ imports a lot of used JDM cars. Small diesel vans and trucks seemed to be popular.

It's a Previa! They used to sell them in the US.

mmhmm. The Estima is/was the Previa. 2.4 litre in both naturally aspirated and supercharged versions that made 142hp. Mid-mounted engine and rear wheel drive with a funky dashboard and dual moonroof option. as shown in the LE model (2nd pic)
