The Toyota Tank (also called Daihatsu Thor and Subaru Justy) is a mini MPV. Designed and manufactured by Daihatsu, it is sold by Daihatsu, Toyota and Subaru.[1] It is a 5-seater mini MPV based on the third generation Boon and its rebadged version Passo, and was introduced on 9 November 2016[2] as the successor of the Ractis and bB. Its twin counterpart is the Toyota Roomy. It uses the same 1.0-liter 1KR-FE as the Passo. It is currently sold only in Japan, and is not regarded as a kei car due to the exterior dimensions as defined by Japanese Government dimension regulations and the engine displacement is at 1000cc, which incurs a modest annual road tax obligation. The Tank is exclusive to Toyopet Store and Netz, while the Roomy is exclusive to Toyota Store and Toyota Corolla Store.[3] It seats below the Sienta, the Tank resembles the front of the seventh generation Camry and the eleventh generation Corolla Axio and Fielder, and the Roomy resembles the front of the Alphard. Both vehicles were also resemble the rear of the Vellfire and the sides of the Noah and Voxy, respectively.
