Toyota Estima

The Toyota Estima is the Japanese name of the minivan that Toyota produced as the Previa from 1990 until October 2019 across three generations, and that was sold in Australia as the Tarago. The name Estima is taken from the word estimable. The first generation, designed by Toyota designer Tokuo Fukuichi and Calty designer David Doyle in 1987, with the patent filed on 24 December 1987, was introduced on 27 January 1990 and had only one sliding side door for the rear passengers. All first generation vans were assembled at the Toyota Auto Body Fujimatsu plant in Kariya, Aichi. In Japan the Estima Lucida and Estima Emina were also available with the 3C-T intercooled turbodiesel four-cylinder engine.
