*Borrowed from British English 'bonnet' for (automobile) hood. The term refers to a minivan with a hood in the front, in contrast to a cab-over engine minivan, where the cab sits over the front axle. Moreover, while vans have their cabins connected to the loading area, trucks have them separate, often with an open cargo area.
Japanese mini vehicles are light motor vehicles whose engine displacement does not exceed 0.66 liters, measuring at most 3.4 meters in length, two meters in height, and 1.48 meters in width.
