About the Toyota Porte XP140
The second-generation Toyota Porte (XP140) is a unique JDM 'mini MPV' designed for maximum accessibility in tight urban spaces. Its defining feature is an asymmetrical door layout: a single large electric sliding door on the passenger side and two conventional hinged doors on the driver's side. Built on the B-platform shared with the Vitz/Yaris, it prioritises interior utility over driving dynamics, featuring a flat floor just 300mm off the ground and a passenger seat that slides 700mm. While never officially sold in the UK, it has become a popular 'grey import' for those seeking a compact vehicle with wheelchair-friendly access or exceptional ease of entry.
