HH3 Acty Van: the short version

HH3 is the van-bodied, rear-drive member of the second-generation Acty family, sold in Japan both as the Acty Van and, in more decorated form, as the Honda Street. The running gear is the truck's: a 656cc E07A laid flat under the rear floor. Because the engine is behind the passengers rather than beneath them, the cabin floor is flat and the load bay sits low over the rear axle.

The odometer has passed six figures at 136,700 miles, roughly 220,000 km. A kei engine of this family displaces 656cc and works harder per mile than a larger unit, which is simply how the class is engineered.

What you are buying

An Acty van is the truck with a roof over the load bay, and because the engine lies beneath that bay rather than under the cab, the floor is flat from bulkhead to tailgate. Rear drive and an enclosed body make it a dry, lockable, square box on a vehicle you can park anywhere — which is the entire case for a kei van over a kei truck.

The $5,000 to $8,000 band is the heart of the imported van market. For a working vehicle that has to keep tools dry and out of sight, it is the point where supply and specification meet.
