It doesnt apply to passenger vehicles. We likely didnt get these because there just isnt much of a market for it. They dont get up to highway speed, and likely also would have trouble with crash testing.
Chicken tax doesn't apply to these. However they do not meet federal safety standards, and they aren't very fast on the highway. That's why they weren't sold here.
Key cars should honestly come back with the Toyota Corolla gr inline 3 turbo engine and I know key cars can fit that engine. Would be amazing to see! Sucks how car companies don’t think about this they could be making millions more…
@@kennorcott7074 that’s very true about the limit. And I meant to say kei* cars 😭. Although I just wanna see a brand new manual Mazda az-1 manual with a Toyota corolla inline 3 turbo engine it would be nuts… that car would for sure be allowed over here to!
@@kennorcott7074Export versions of kei cars usually have engines larger than 660cc. And there are some Japanese market kei cars that had larger engines and were sold as regular cars.
Absolutely perfect for a little island nation like that. That sounds like paradise, lliterally. living in Bermuda whipping around a little bad boy like this everywhere. Imagine 😍
Yeah it’s practical except for the fact you can’t put kids in them because they’re so unsafe and you can’t drive them on the highway because they top out at 65mph
Hey in El Salvador, Costa Rica and C.A. those guys come up in huge amounts but very rarely with these characteristics😮 I think the best versions stayed in Japan for them.
I wish we had cars like this in Europe. Want to go on a weekend adventure, just go, sleep wherever, but can still go into town and park without it feeling like you are mooring an aircraft carrier...
My 2017 Daihatsu van does this bed thing as well but also comes with large cushions that flatten out the surface. Than open ups sleeping bag and spread it over and it’s pretty comfortable for a couple nights !!
@@joshmanwaring3848 It's sustainable,you eat a cheap 7$ shawarna a day and have the cheapst gym membership for showering and washing. Washing your clothes every one ce 2 weeks. Pretty cheap. Working as a cashier or whatever. You can even save for a trip to Japan.
Someone gave that engineer a budget of a couple yen and said, ‘Just do what you can’, and he created a masterpiece using plastic, steel and some colour. Kudos unknown engineer. KUDOS!🎉
For a bed it’s better to just fold down the back seats and unroll a memory foam topper for a mattress; far more comfortable that way since the base is more level than just folding the seats flat.
The way the parking is at my apartment complex, I would not mind a right-side driver. For one, it lets me get the door for my wife and kids without having to walk all the way around, open, and walk all the way back. I can grab the ice scraper out in the winter from the passenger side, scrape the windows on my way across, and climb in the driver's seat. Lemons make good lemonade!
Where I live, Chevy sells a Suzuki-made kei van called CMV and a pickup version called CMP with 800 cc engines. Suzuki also sells its own line called Carry with a 1.3
Sitting on the front wheels is not only dangerous but creates a very rough ride. Modern US motor vehicles are among the safest vehicles in the world to both humans and the environment.

Thats not a spoiler. It's a handle, so you can roll it through the airport.
😂😂
The p50
🤣🤣🤣
If you don't feel tired pushing....not funny.
This made me laugh out loud 😂
I find this more interesting than the 3 million dollar super cars😭
I’ll try my best to feature more like it!
These are very practical - can pick the kids up in it, go shopping, easy to park, economical etc.
Where on God's green earth can I find them for sale?
@@justinhughes4722just import em instead of buying it used in the united states
Same here. Niche finds are far more fascinating than glorified sports cars
This short is more captivating than all the supercar blondie videos.
It has actual features, not just gimmicks, I really like it
Imagine, we could have had all of these if it wasnt for that damn chicken tax
So the chicken tax applied on vans too? I thought the chicken tax only for the hilux and other small japanese pickups

@@fordsquared537we didn’t get it cause of Mercedes fault
i love the kei trucks/vans
I like how many of the car interiors from Japan are immaculate and close to brand new….
It's more to do with that if you're spending the money shipping a car across the sea you might as well get a good example
Because they've been detailed before shipping! 🥴
That says more about the previous and current owners than the car itself.
Shinto.
Bc they weren't like us gross Americans
This is now my dream car, I love it.
Seriously, imagine camping on this thing?
Its adorable

It wouldn’t fall into the kei car guidelines, there’s a limit on horsepower, it doesn’t make sense for them to make

we got some of them over here with 1L engines
@alien_raider464 kei cars never dissapeared, the thing is that they mostly are in japan
Prime use of nature walk I love it
I wish this was standard for cars. Small fuel efficient and still you can just decide you're tired, or you do want another beer and sleep in the car.
Those seats remind me of the Greyhound buses
The fabric looks like Amtrac as well
We call that a multicab here in the Philippines. 3 cylinder rear engine. I had one but sadly, I sold it.
Incredible use of space! Those folding seats are really cool. And I love the body kit!
You'll see plenty of these vehicles whipping around the many little narrow streets in Bermuda.
Absolutely perfect for a little island nation like that. That sounds like paradise, lliterally. living in Bermuda whipping around a little bad boy like this everywhere. Imagine 😍
You’ll need somewhere to sleep on your road trip cause it’s gonna take you a few months to get there🤣
😂😂😂
Kei cars is all we ever need.
Well Old Geisers have to have their 60’s and 70’s gasoline hogs lol 😆
@@murphyrod4839a geiser is a geological feature. A geezer is an old crotchety guy like me.
This is what imagined when they said "we should go electric". Not the 3 tons SUVs you see everywhere.
Those seats remain me of old long distance travel busses seats
Nice:) looks so practical. Jdm foglights are a good option
Yeah it’s practical except for the fact you can’t put kids in them because they’re so unsafe and you can’t drive them on the highway because they top out at 65mph
I’ve never wanted to live in a “car” more
You should check out the Honda Stepwgn!
The first "rad" word in 2023 i've ever heard since a while
*This thing needs fender flares, some deep dish rims and a TV in the back*
Every kei van short:
"And it folds down into a bed"
$10k lol
When does he say they're asking 10k for it?
@@EpictheEpicest The window sticker.
@@dieselgoinham Ouch, yea that's probably 2x or more the cost of importing yourself, but it saves you the hassle.
“Because of the way it is” made me laugh a lot more than I’d like to admit
It's brilliant... I love it...😊
It looks like a little fictional hotwheels van!
The spoilers are bigger then the spoiler of kitty soft paws dieing in Shrek 5
it's like a shopping trolley but still love these mini vans.
I just recently found your channel and Boy I’m loving it.
こんなにも綺麗なダイハツアトレーが海外に行ってしまったことが悔しい。
自分が手に入れたかった。
Hey in El Salvador, Costa Rica and C.A. those guys come up in huge amounts but very rarely with these characteristics😮 I think the best versions stayed in Japan for them.
Looks like another one of the legendary Omni van
The brief clip he showed was from a video called “Nature Walk” btw
It's called neature walk.
RT: rad truck. Has that 80s saved by the bell trapper keeper vibe.
It really does. It doesn’t get much radder than this!
dude my 2020 brain is kicked in, just now looking at those headrests they look like among us. lol
Ah, yes, blue/purple... My dude. Thats midnight blue
“A massive spoiler”😂
That "bed" looks painful AF
Dang it, I need a kei van badly...
This the kidnapping van from Squid Games😂
Whaaaat? (I haven’t seen it)
This van just scream "90's". I miss the decade.
It does, right? It’s RAD!
Adorable
“Loosely” is the common usage
Love your content
I would love to product test 1. Reviews would go on many platforms
They’re so unlike other cars!
“How neat is that”
We need more care like this! Small and comfortable to sleep in!
Also needs bigger engine.
If kei cars like this came back with double the power they’d be perfect
@@exaltedbThey’d be fine with a modern turbo and intercooler.
@@exaltedbIn America they'd be overpriced for sure.
@@afcgeo882 Some Daihatsu Altrai are turbocharged.
"massive spoiler"
Thats the most understated spoiler ive ever seen on a japanese car
Imagine some kid asking their parents to buy them R/T and then they pull up on that thing.
That will put a smile on your face every time you drive it.
I wish we had cars like this in Europe. Want to go on a weekend adventure, just go, sleep wherever, but can still go into town and park without it feeling like you are mooring an aircraft carrier...
Would love to have one of those ❤
That’s so RAD!
It's looks sorta like a trapezoid on wheels and that's pretty cool lol.

THIS IS SOO COOOL
I think we can assume all these types of vehicles have seats that lay flat and turn into an uncomfortable bed
I can hardly contain my excitement. I better keep scrolling.
I am getting old.. when crank windows are “super interesting”, it means I am getting old..
The perfect solution to resolve Canada and States homeless problem.
Considering we have more parking spots than homes, yeah
Already have lots of folks living out of their cars here on the west coast

Shut up and take my money!!!
It just sold!!! Lmk if you’re interested in one like it.
I like this one the most
Its realy a mini lovely van of Subaru i love to see or have it dear 😊❤
I'm glad you like it
I imagine a Japanese Mr T owning this van.
😂😂😂
*THAT’S PRETTY NEAT*
i am most impressed of amount of space for feet on second row seats
Did anyone notice that the headrests was shaped like among us characters😂

Wonder if the bumpers and skirts would fit on a hijet jumbo
I might've got one if it weren't for how they always come as right side drivers

Might b my favorite yet just 4 the complete "bed" conversion
STOP SHOWING ME COOL VANS I WANT ALL OF THEM
This is awesome
Millions like that is in Philippines now, called multicab
Where I live, Chevy sells a Suzuki-made kei van called CMV and a pickup version called CMP with 800 cc engines. Suzuki also sells its own line called Carry with a 1.3
This would be great for deliveries
luv the flat bus drivery seering wheel
Those are like classic bus seat print seats
Turns into a spot where you can put a decent size air mattress at least.
Those seats look like the pattern on hospital chairs lol
Just get it tinted and you can Netflix and chill anywhere 😉
That’s a possibility lol
The coolest looking one so far. It looks like and Evo 10 and a Kia Soul did somethings in the dark.
Seats folding into the floor makes a better bed than the seats backs going all the way back.
I love it! 😭
Hmm, that bed layout looks perfect for making the family to fill the backseats .
Beautiful Van. Love it
Amazing !
Best thing about this is it wont be stolen, you can literally pick it up and carry it inside with you, store it in the kitchen cabinet.
🧐 I believe the colloquially acclaimed terminology for which to describe this hue is ...Blurple.
It absolutely is lol

i have one and its not a rough ride at all, infact it rides great...dangerous part might be true tho haha

Too small, not fast enough for US highways

But the world is full of people who NEED a big car to feel safe on the streets bc everyone drives unecessary big cars.
That looks great little guy
