Honda Stepwgn
Japan's favourite family van — practical, spacious and surprisingly capable
Overview
The Stepwgn is Honda's long-running compact minivan, sold in Japan since 1996 and never officially offered in Australia. Built on a tall, boxy body with a flat floor and flexible seating for up to eight, it became one of Japan's best-selling family vehicles. Grey imports have trickled into Australia over the years, particularly the Spada variants with sportier styling.
The Stepwgn has never been officially sold in Australia. Grey imports have arrived sporadically, with the third and fourth generations being the most commonly seen. The Spada variants with their sportier styling are particularly popular.
