Toyota Previa – the MPV with a mid-mounted engine in its first and a front engine in its second generation, sold as the Estima in Japan, D-4D diesel and Blind Van and Window Van commercial versions, 97 to 100 kW
The Previa is Toyota's MPV, sold in Japan as the Estima. The first generation (1990 to 2000) had its engine mounted under the front floor between the front seats, giving an unusually low, flat load floor; the second generation, built in Europe as the Previa from 2000, switched to a conventional front engine with front-wheel drive. The D-4D suffix denotes Toyota's common-rail diesel injection; the Blind Van and Window Van versions listed here are commercial variants without and with side windows in the load area respectively, and the Sol, Terra and Luna lines plus ATM for automatic transmission denote equipment and drivetrain.

The register lists here 11 versions with 97 to 100 kW from four-cylinders of 1,995 to 2,438 cm³, unladen weights from 1,503 to 1,755 kg, gross weights from 2,000 to 2,450 kg and widths from 1,790 to 1,800 mm.
The Previa was Toyota's answer to the Renault Espace, Chrysler Voyager and VW Sharan in the MPV segment; the Blind Van and Window Van commercial versions served trade and delivery businesses seeking a comfortable but high-payload van.
On used examples, the condition of the timing belts for the centrally mounted engine and the coolant lines in the floor count on the first generation, common-rail injection and turbocharger of the D-4D diesel on the second, and generally the condition of the electric sliding doors and air conditioning; parts run through the Toyota network.
