This Article By The Website Allpar Chronicling The Ambitious Development Of The Minivan By The Chrysler Corporation Beginning In The 1970’s, Including One Of The Design Objectives Being A Low, Flat Floor; Are One Of The Many Things I Dislike About Every Minivan That Chrysler Has Ever Built; And Every Other Car-Based Minivan.
What most did not want was one of the company’s B-Vans-David Zatz
Contrary to this Article stating that most people did not want a Dodge B-Van, a General Motors (Chevrolet/GMC) Full-Size Van, or a Ford Econoline/Club Wagon for personal use; I love the traditional, American Full-Size Vans, and the European Full-Size Vans (including the Ford Transit). I also love the Truck-based Compact Vans from General Motors and Ford, the Astro/Safari and the Aerostar, the T1, T2, T3, and T4 Volkswagen Transporter/Microbus/Vanagon/EuroVan; all successive generations of the Volkswagen Transporter that have been sold in markets other than in North America since 2003; the Volkswagen I.D Buzz, the Renault Estafette, the Renault Trafic, the Renault 1,000 Kg, the Renault Super Goélette, the Renault Master, the Peugeot J7, the Peugeot J9, the Citroen TUB, the Citroen H-Van, the Fiat 238, the Fiat 242, the Fiat Ducato, the Iveco Daily, the Toyota HiAce, the Nissan Urvan, the Mitsubishi Delica, the Mazda Bongo, the Toyota Master/Ace/Tarago/VanWagon, the Toyota Estima/Previa; and the Nissan Vanette.

If you acquire a copy of the Book that I wrote about how I would personally run General Motors, you will read that I would rekindle General Motors’ relationship with Fuji Heavy Industries/Subaru; and I would order the development of a European-style Compact Van using a Subaru EREV Powertrain with a Subaru EJ Engine as the Range-Extending Internal Combustion Engine, would definitely be of a higher and taller profile and would incorporate a high, flat floor; would be benchmarked against the Renault Trafic, Volkswagen Transporter, and Volkswagen I.D Buzz; would be styled by either one of the two leading Italian styling firms: ItalDesign or Bertone; and would be sold in the North American market as a new-generation Chevrolet Astro and GMC Safari.
