First, minibuses offer convenience to passengers, even during long journeys. Second, they have better fuel efficiency and leave less carbon footprint in their wake, compared to many other modes of transport. Most importantly, they are extremely cheap to travel with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks to these factors, minibuses have gained immense acceptance in different parts of Africa. Known as <em>Danfo<\/em> in Nigeria, <em>Matatu<\/em> in Kenya and <em>Poda Poda <\/em>in Sierra Leone, these commercial vehicles can always be seen trodding the continent\u2019s bustling streets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, when it comes down to deciding between Japanese used cars of this kind, two options easily come to mind \u2013 the Nissan Caravan and the Toyota Hiace. With both notable for their convenience, making the better choice could be challenging. But with the right information, it\u2019s a walk in the park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Difference between Caravan and Hiace<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond the spacious interiors and similar build styles of both vehicles, countless qualities set them apart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nissan Caravan<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"696\" data-id=\"3990\" src=\"https:\/\/carused.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/nissan-caravan-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3990\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carused.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/nissan-caravan-2.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/carused.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/nissan-caravan-2-300x204.jpg 300w, https:\/\/carused.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/nissan-caravan-2-768x522.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"697\" data-id=\"3989\" src=\"https:\/\/carused.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/nissan-caravan-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3989\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carused.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/nissan-caravan-3.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/carused.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/nissan-caravan-3-300x204.jpg 300w, https:\/\/carused.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/nissan-caravan-3-768x523.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-font-size has-medium-font-size\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-vivid-red-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/carused.jp\/car-list\/nissan\/caravan-van\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Search Used Nissan Caravan for Sale<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The Nissan Caravan features a cab-over type one-box design. The fourth-generation (E25) version enjoyed a production spanning from 2001 to 2012 \u2013 enough time to create a reputation for its reliability and versatility. This vehicle boasts a prominent grille design, rectangular headlights, a large windshield and relatively flat sides. The Nissan Caravan for sale is also known as the Nissan Urvan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The design of the Caravan allows for ample interior space for passengers and cargo alike. With the presence of foldable seats, there\u2019s always more room for more load. Meanwhile, additional storage compartments help passengers enjoy a clutter-free experience. Some trims may include Climate Control, an Anti-theft Alarm, Central Locking, an Anti-lock Braking System, a trip computer, and a center display.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Safety is not dismissed in the Urvan as the vehicle comes equipped with seat belts and airbags \u2013 catering for the security of its 12-passenger capacity. Meanwhile, drivers are also assured of a seamless ride as the vehicle relies on a hydraulic power steering with polyurethane material.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most popular models of the Nissan Caravan for sale are the 4th generation (E25 model 2001-2012) models. This class of minibuses are also popularly demanded in Kenya, Zimbabwe, Zambia and Tanzania, among others. Usually, a Japanese used Nissan Caravan for sale goes anywhere between $3,100 and $4,900.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Toyota Hiace Van<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"672\" data-id=\"3992\" src=\"https:\/\/carused.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/006-2-1.jpg\" alt=\"Toyota Hiace van front view\" class=\"wp-image-3992\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carused.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/006-2-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/carused.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/006-2-1-300x197.jpg 300w, https:\/\/carused.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/006-2-1-768x504.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"688\" data-id=\"3991\" src=\"https:\/\/carused.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/007-3-1.jpg\" alt=\"Toyota Hiace Van side view \" class=\"wp-image-3991\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carused.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/007-3-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/carused.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/007-3-1-300x202.jpg 300w, https:\/\/carused.jp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/007-3-1-768x516.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-font-size has-medium-font-size\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-vivid-red-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/carused.jp\/car-list\/toyota\/hiace-van\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Search Used Toyota Hiace Van<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The Hiace is Toyota\u2019s close competition to the Nissan Caravan\u2014and that\u2019s for good reason. The H200 series, to begin with, featured a more utilitarian design compared to more recent Hiace models. It also had the cab-over, one-box design of the Caravan. Depending on the configuration you choose \u2013 cargo-hauling or passenger-hauling \u2013 the Toyota Hiace can either have sliding doors for passengers\u2019 easy entry and exit or a flat panel.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The boxy shape and tall rooflines of the Toyota Hiace also account for its greater headroom, legroom and cargo space. While steel wheels are more common, some more expensive trims of the H200 series (2004 &#8211; 2020) offered alloy wheels. Meanwhile, thanks to the presence of fog lights, the vehicle can forge fearlessly through low-visibility areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the inside, the Toyota Hiace for sale offers more sightly features than the Caravan. For one, all models have a trip computer, a center display and air conditions. Advanced features such as Cruise Control, Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), Electronic Stability Control and Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) are available too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The presence of seatbelts, airbags, pretensioners, immobilizers and Isofix (for children) also guarantee that passengers of all ages are securely tucked away from harm\u2019s way. More so, entertainment within the Hiace doesn\u2019t go unnoticed. The WMA, AUX, USB and Bluetooth, as well as the optional RDS and DVD ensure that you stay connected on the go!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Toyota Hiace for sale is extremely popular among African countries for several reasons, one of which is its adequate ground clearance of about 175mm. As this makes it a practical vehicle, countries like South Africa, Uganda and Nigeria revere it as the go-to passenger and cargo van. Starting from about $5,200 to about $11,600 for the latest models, you can expect to find the Toyota Hiace for sale in the used Japanese car market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Performance and Engine Specifications<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The table below provides a side-by-side comparison of both car models at a glance:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table alignleft\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Criteria<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Nissan Caravan<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Toyota Hiace<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Manufacturing Year<\/strong><\/td><td>April 2001<\/td><td>August 2004<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Dimensions&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>(L \u00d7 W \u00d7 H)<\/strong><\/td><td>4990mm \u00d7 1690mm \u00d7 1990mm<\/td><td>4,695 &#8211; 5,380mm \u00d7 1,695 &#8211; 1,880mm \u00d7 1,980 &#8211; 2,105mm<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Weight<\/strong><\/td><td>1,650kg<\/td><td>1,610 &#8211; 2,200kg<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Type of Vehicle<\/strong><\/td><td>Minibus<\/td><td>Minibus<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Engine Capacity<\/strong><\/td><td>2,000cc to 3,000cc<\/td><td>2,000cc to 3,000cc<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Engine Power (HP)<\/strong><\/td><td>131 horsepower<\/td><td>151 horsepower<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Engine RPM<\/strong><\/td><td>3,450RPM<\/td><td>3,400RPM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Top Speed<\/strong><\/td><td>160km\/h<\/td><td>155km\/h<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Fuel Type<\/strong><\/td><td>Petrol\/Diesel<\/td><td>Petrol\/Diesel<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Fuel Capacity<\/strong><\/td><td>65 litres<\/td><td>70 litres<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Fuel Efficiency<\/strong><\/td><td>Between 9.1km\/L to 14.1km\/L<\/td><td>Between 6.1km\/L to 8.7km\/L<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Transmission Type<\/strong><\/td><td>4-speed automatic, 5-speed manual<\/td><td>4-speed automatic, 6-speed automatic &amp; 5-speed manual<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Average Price (Used)<\/strong><\/td><td>$3,100 &#8211; $4,900<\/td><td>$5,200 &#8211; $11,600<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>N.B.:<\/strong> For the Nissan Caravan, the fourth generation (E25 2001 &#8211; 2012) model was used.
