The Toyota Noah is an seven or eight-seater MPV with two rear sliding doors built by Toyota and sold in Asia and Africa. A five-seater version without the third seat row is available (YY grade). Its predecessor was the Toyota LiteAce Noah. The Noah has two twin versions, named Toyota Voxy and Toyota Esquire . The Noah is exclusive to Toyota Corolla Store Japanese dealerships, the Voxy is exclusive to Toyota Netz, while the Esquire is exclusive to Toyopet Store. The Noah's 154 hp engine takes 9.8 seconds to reach 100 km/h (60 mph) up to a top speed of 175 km/h. Its sales in Japan are enhanced by the fact that the exterior dimensions are in compliance with the Japanese Governments dimension regulations for vehicles classified as compact, and the engine displacement is kept at 2000cc so as to keep the annual road tax obligation affordable for private purchase.
