TOYOTA'S NEW MINIVAN

Sedans, retro-coupes and super high hp cars are great but getting around in something affordable and cool is something that Toytoa is trying to capture with the release of their new vehicle calle the ZiO. It's some five inches shorter than a Camry and is officially labeled as a “new category vehicle.”

There are two versions, starting with the 240G, with Camry-style 2.4-liter I-4 (161 horsepower) and continuously various transmission. Then, there’s the peppier 350G with 276 horsepower from the 3.5-liter V-6 (also Camry derived), matched to a six-speed sequential automatic transmission.

These cool lil' wagons are rumored to be in the mid $20,000 range.
