A little context on the S230-series Atrai

S230 is the four-wheel-drive Atrai Wagon of 1999 onwards, built on the enlarged-kei Hijet van platform with passenger registration, sliding side doors and a tall roof. Turbocharged versions of the 659cc engine were offered in this range, and four-wheel drive with forced induction in a kei van is a combination few makers bothered with.

Six figures, at 123,300 miles or approximately 198,400 km. Daihatsu designed the 659cc EF and the later KF as working engines for a vehicle sold almost entirely to trades and farms.

Why this configuration

Four-wheel drive under a van body is the specification for people who need the load bay dry and the vehicle capable of leaving a made road. The front axle is selectable from the cab, and the enclosed body adds nothing to the drivetrain's job beyond a little weight and a great deal of security.

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.
