What Are Those Nice Pack Vans?

[Chamitha6]

I am very confusing about Nice pack van?What is a difference?Is it a just low type?Market value?

Please explain me if You know..

nice pack and just low is the same thing and the market value for them are low than normal ones and just low/nice pack mean they have a higher floor than normal one because of that rear head room is less and the ride is uncomfortable and the vehicle is not stable in high speeds afaik just low/nice pack are mainly use to transport stuff in japan they are not use for people transport.

How is the vehicle "not stable at high speeds"? Where did you pick that up from?

It doesn't make sense because the modifications in the high floor vans are INSIDE the shell.. As far as i'm aware there is no change to the outer body structure and thus the aerodynamics SHOULD remain unchanged.

Possible. The weight would be higher. Thus center of gravity would be raised, even if the exterior is the same. Weight shift, basically. This would cause more sway/bodyroll. Probably means that. Quite unpleasant at speed.

Mind you, pure theory from me.

"Nice Pack" !!!??? First time I heard. Where they get these names from .

With regard to "just low" I guess rear suspension geometry at least should be different.

Sometimes you may have observed this.

In Toyota Liteace CM36 and related models , Normal van and Just Low Van can distinguish by just seen rear fender.

Additional groove is on Just low model.

The additional groove is actually formed by an extra piece of steel welded into the wheel arch. This is to offset the unsightly gap that would be apparent when the regular wide 10" wheels are fitted to it. The rear suspension is also setup for 10" wheels, rather than 13", so I suspect there will be handling issues a regular Townace won't see. The smaller tires allow for a flat floor. In retrospect, the floor/ceiling height is actually lower than the regular version, but the advantage is that the flat floor can accept standard sized cargo pallets, which is the whole point of the exercise.

what i mean was there is more bodyroll than normal van and it's sway more than normal van as peri said and i know this because we use to have a just low toyota lite ace.

btw i don't know this is true or not there is a saying that just low van are more prone to rollover.
