This van is smaller than the competition, inside and out. That is a huge disadvantage in this segment. People buy a minivan to haul their family and stuff. This doesn't do that very well. It might be the most fun to drive, but when was the last time you heard someone say they wanted a fun-to-drive minivan? No wonder they can't give them away.
Tom Appel
If you don't need all the mass of a typical "mini" van, this may be the ride for you. Nimble and thrifty, the MPV may be a true "Crossover."
