Used Toyota Noah for Export from Japan
The Noah is Japan's default 8-seater family van and East Africa's default matatu-class people mover. Sliding doors, flat floor, 2.0L reliability and seating flexibility make it the top minivan request from Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda. The 80-series (2014–2021) hybrid adds 20+ km/L economy; the 70-series (2007–2014) is the value pick.
Typical FOB range: $6,000–$20,000
Key facts
- FWD or 4WD; 2.0L 3ZR-FAE gasoline or 1.8L hybrid (80-series)
- Best for: large families, shuttle business, church/school transport
- Twin of the Voxy — cross-shop both at auction for the better price
What to check at auction
Sliding door motors and tracks are the wear point — verify both doors operate. Check third-row seat presence and condition (often removed in Japan). Valve-matic issues on early 3ZR-FAE engines; listen for idle hunting notes on the sheet.
