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? Japanoid.com - Car Index - The Toyota Estima Lucida 2.2 litre diesel, 4WD, 8-passenger seating, 4-wheel disc brakes.
One of our tour guides in NZ had one of these: Japanoid.com - Car Index - The Toyota Lite Ace 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. [ame=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Previa]Toyota Previa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/ame]
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)
