Detailed review:
This is one of the most fun cars I have ever driven. Very comfortable with lots of room, enough for 4 large people. Acceleration is smooth due to variable speed transmission, however, there is no overdrive. Supposedly, Toyota is coming out with new models in the future including a small pickup. Don't wait to buy this car.
