As the Nissan Urvan is only available in certain countries, it is not fair to say that it is the Hi-Ace's main competition; this would only be the case in certain countries. For now, I will remove this pending a more finite decision
The English in this article is particularly poor and much of it doesn't make sense (the last few sentences of the 4th gen, and 5th gen sections). I can only assume these were written by someone in a non-English speaking country. Could someone 'clean it up' a little please? Davez621 10:49, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Donuts?
Doing donuts while going 100 km/h? What is doing a donut? Doesn't sound very encyclopediatic
[edit] The African Factor
This section title doesn't seem right. It sounds like it was punched into a translator. Maybe it should be retitled with something like "Hiace in Africa"
[edit] Regius vs Granvia
Can someone tell me the difference between a Regius and a Granvia ? I read somewhere that the Regius is smaller and narrower, but both look like a European Hiace to me. Is it true?
[edit] Hiace in Europe
"The European Hiace van was introduced in 1995" Hiace vans have been sold in Ireland (possibly the UK too) since at least the late 1970s, if not earlier. I have definately seen second generation Hiace vans (similar to the picture on the Japanese page) in this country. --Zilog Jones 22:52, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Spelling
Which is correct--"Hiace" or "Hi-Ace"? Both appear in the article ("Hi-Ace" in the discussion of taxis in Africa). 207.69.137.23 01:01, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- According to Toyota South Africa the spelling in that country is Hi-Ace. Alan Liefting 21:59, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Granvia Hi-Ace picture
The picture of the Hi-Ace van in the "Granvia / European Hiace" section is not a picture of a Granvia Hi-Ace. This picture should be moved or replaced to avoid confusion.
[edit] Pictures
The picture of the "82-85" and the "85-89" Hiace are actually of the same generation, but the latter are of a shorter "luxury" passenger model. My father used to own a 1987 hiace, and it had the same front as the "82-85".PerDaniel (talk) 09:39, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Would you please advise if this vehicle has permanently tinted anti-glare glass, or has there been a filmed placed over the glass.
I am in need of a rear tailgate glass with heater element and tinted glass and I am told there is only plain glass that has to have film bonded on to it.
An urgent response would be much appreciated.
