What I think about the improved model
The current 5th generation H200 series Hiace is a long model that will celebrate its 20th anniversary in 2024. When it comes to Japanese vans, it can be said that the Hiace is a particularly popular model that is widely used for both business and personal use. Toyota is probably considering a full model change, but the issue of switching from a cab-over to a semi-bonnet for safety reasons is likely to be a bottleneck. With a cabover, you can reduce the engine room, allowing you to carry more cargo and carry more people without increasing the overall length. The reason for adopting a semi-bonnet even if it means sacrificing the biggest advantage of the Hiace is that Toyota is developing the H300 series as a global strategic commercial vehicle model, and the cab-over type has a cab (driver’s seat) above the engine. Therefore, the bottleneck is that it is difficult to maintain overseas, but if it is a semi-bonnet, it is easy to maintain overseas. Since the engine is located under the driver and passenger seats, there are heat and noise issues. Since the bonnet is not in front of a cabover, there is a higher risk of collision in the event of a collision compared to the safety in the front . Overseas, the H300 series is on sale, and in Japan it seems most likely that both will be sold together at the 21st anniversary.
