Name OriginNamed after the Egyptian goddess of fruitfulness and productivity in the hope that the vehicle would enrich the lives of its passengers.
DescriptionReleased in September 2004, the Isis minivan was aimed specifically for the Japanese market. Its unique feature was the so-called Panorama Open Doors on the passenger side. The center pillar on the left side was concealed in the front and rear doors, creating a 1,890 mm-wide passageway when the doors were opened. Standard models used the front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout, although 4-wheel-drive models were also available. Two engine choices were provided: a 2-liter DOHC direct injection 4-cylinder engine (1AZ-FSE), and a 1.8-liter engine (1ZZ-FE). The Super CVT-i transmission was coupled with the 2-liter engine, while the 4-speed automatic Super ECT transmission was paired with the 1.8-liter engine. The sport model Platana adopted a 7-speed sequential shift transmission.
Various seat arrangements were possible to meet diverse needs, thanks to a fold-and-tumble navigator's seat, tip-up second-row seats, and third-row seats that could be stowed in the floor of the vehicle. Among its unique options was the world's first steering-sensitive clearance sonar, which could detect approaching obstacles and alert the driver. In September 2009, the engines were switched to ones with the fuel-efficient Valvematic mechanism, improved its fuel efficiency. グレード / 車両型式 2.0・PLATANA CBA-ANM10W-AWXSH 2.0・L CBA-ANM10G-AWXEH 1.8・LCBA-ZNM10G-AWPEK |
