When I was a very small kid, such yellow minivan dominated the roads of my hometown, I even have the memory of taking these minivan taxies with my parents. Then very quickly they got decommissioned and disappeared from the road. All of its story happened nearly 30 years ago, quite an iconic vehicle for Chinese people that live in early 90s.

Yes I can imagine that. I am happy to see WPL make cars that are so different to what we have here. This really shows us the variety and I for one am in love with this thing.

You can solve all the problems replacing plastic chassis with metal chassis and also metal shock absorber to lower the center of gravity. And if you want to improve it even more, alloy wheels.

@@AMPROEngineering Not sure... the D12 and D42 are based on vehicles originally from Japan, and afaik those are all right hand drive for their domestic market… Maybe WPL just decided to alternate between lhd and rhd for the D series. D12 rhd, the (for now) skipped D22 lhd and D32 rhd, coming to a lhd D42…? Just an idea though :)
