What an Acty Van is

Because Honda kept the Acty mid-engined throughout, the E07A in this one sits behind the seats and under the deck rather than beneath them — every rival put its engine under the seat or at the very back. The Acty's defining trick is where the engine lives: mounted transversely amidships under the load bed rather than under the cab. It looks like a cab-over, but structurally it is a mid-engined vehicle. By 1998 Honda had been iterating on the Acty for well over a decade, and it shows in how resolved the packaging is.

Acty Van: engine and drivetrain

This Acty Van carries the E07A: a 660cc engine. By 1998 the E07A was a thoroughly known quantity, having run in Honda's kei range for years by then. The E07A drives through an automatic gearbox.

Acty Van: Kei van, Vans on the registration, 4 seats. That is 200kg of payload on a 860kg vehicle, a load-to-weight ratio most full-size pickups do not come close to.

Ownership and import of this Acty Van

Acty Vans were bought in Japan for delivery rounds, trade work and mobile services, and the body reflects exactly that brief. A 1998 build date puts this one well past the 25-year federal import threshold.
