Review
We bought this minivan new after our previous Previa was forced off the road and rolled. 4 of us walked away with one minor cut. After that I wouldn't buy anything but another Previa. We haven't had any major repairs other than the normal maintenance. There have been so many great family memories associated with this Previa. It handles so well in our winter mountain road driving. It was the first choice for all our ski trips and forest road camping trips. We could get 4 adult sized mountain bikes and 4 adults inside, so nothing got dusty or wet on our back road trips. Love it still! This has by far been the most reliable and fun vehicle we have ever owned.
Favorite Features
Safety. Huge interior space. Handles well for winter driving. Extremely comfortable for long road trips. Best vision for any car I've driven, and I have done a ton of test driving.
Suggested Improvements
Air conditioning could have been better.
High quality vehicle

Review
Hardly spent money for repair since we purchased it in 1995. A/C freon leaked out in 2006. Radio tuner broke- down in 2008. Overall, Previa is a very refined vehicle in design and performance.
Favorite Features
Folding third seats. Rides well. Spacious cabin with cargo space. Repair free.
Suggested Improvements
3-L engine, rather than 2.3-L.
Reliable and Fun

Review
I bought this car brand new in Oct. 1992. The only services required are tires, wiper blades, brakes, battery, air filter, oil and filter. I also had a 60K service at 10 years and asked them to change all the hoses. 17 years, AC is still going strong without any service. Plenty of interior space and leg space. Only complaint is when fully loaded, it becomes sluggish - after all this is a V4.
Favorite Features
3rd row seats flip up easily for extra room. 2nd row seats can be removed to create more room.
Suggested Improvements
Cup holders for 2nd row and 3rd row. 2nd row seats can be flipped up or lay down flat to create more space instead of removing it.
Excellent Van

Review
Sadly we are going to replace our Toy Previo, "Gertrude" only because of her age. I am going to miss her because she rides better than the Honda we are considering. She is good looking, dependable & reliable. She has everything one could want. She has a lot of good years ahead of her.
Favorite Features
Smooth ride. Economical, roomy, wonderful van. Drives like a luxury sedan. Great air conditioning & heat. I have hauled large furniture, a Lazy Boy chair & all sorts of stuff in her. She would be so good for a big family. Everything works great except the speakers.
Suggested Improvements
We replaced the radio/CD player & speakers for a little over $300 & our Gertrude is truly a joy now.
