abstract:The Toyota Previa, also known as the Toyota Estima (エスティマ) in Japan, the Toyota Tarago in Australia and the Toyota Canarado in Asia Pacific, is an MPV or multi-purpose vehicle (known as a minivan in North America) produced by Toyota since 1990. The name "Previa" comes from the Italian for "preview," as Toyota saw the first Previa as a vehicle that would preview technologies used in future minivans.
