😮 Adjusted for inflation, this van would be $75,000 today as tested.

Even the base model would be about $47,000 in 2023 dollars. No wonder everyone bought Caravans and Voyagers.

I have a 1993 Previa LE not supercharged. It still runs well at 290K miles and gets 21 mpg on average. The space age design makes it unique to this day.

My down the street neighbors when I was a kid had early non-supercharged Previa. They had it for like 20 years. Their other car was an 84-ish (1st gen) Camry four door hatch in two-tone blue. Both unusual choices, didn't see many of either of those.

This car and the Cressida are the reasons why Toyota had to sell more Lexus’. The fancier name validated the price. This van crawled so the Lexus RX could walk.

The acceleration gains are substantial, but man, it would’ve been hard to justify even back then spending more and still getting over 10+ secs 0-60. Might as well stick with the base engine, especially given the gas mileage

I believe you could get these with the supercharged engine and a 5 speed stick, which probably shaved off at least a second from the 0-60. But agreed with the other comments here, this is one expensive van!

I still miss mine everyday. I had a 92 DX with AWD. I removed the front driveshaft in the summer months for better fuel mileage, and reinstalled it in the winter for traction. Hands down the most fun you can ever have in a van.
