Key takeaways
- Choose body types according to local demand, import rules and expected resale margin.
- Minivans primarily serve passenger demand, while vans may be configured for cargo, passenger or mixed commercial use.
- Confirm registered seats, dimensions, drivetrain and payload from vehicle data rather than appearance alone.
- Vehicle size, weight and classification can affect shipping, duties and registration costs.
A mixed inventory can reduce dependence on one buyer segment when it reflects actual sales data.
