Minivans - Parts, Adds, Sales - Online
Minivan is a type of automobile similar in shape to a van, designed for personal use. Minivans are taller than a sedan, hatchback or a station wagon, and are designed for maximum interior room.
Wordwide, minivans are also marketed as multi-purpose vehicles (abbreviated MPV's), people-carriers, people-movers, or multi-utility vehicles (shortened MUV's).
MPVs are usually between 1,600-1,800 millimetres (63-71 in) tall, which is around 200 mm (7.9 in) taller than a sedan, hatchback or a station wagon. The engine is mounted very close to the front edge of the car, and its elements are grouped higher than in other car types to minimize front overhang length. The rear overhang may be short as in a hatchback or long like in station wagons, changing the boot vs seat balance - the first option is more common in smaller minivans and the second in large minivans.
