The Cabby resembles a [[wp:Dodge Caravan#Generation IV (2001-2007)|fourth generation Dodge Caravan]] or [[wp:Chrysler Voyager#2001-2007 (United States)|Chrysler Voyager]] (in comparison, most real-life [[wp:Taxicabs of New York City|New York City Taxi]] minivans using the [[wp:Honda Odyssey|Honda Odyssey]], [[wp:Chevrolet Venture|Chevrolet Venture]], [[wp:Ford Freestar|Ford Freestar]], and [[wp:Toyota Sienna|Toyota Sienna]] as their base).

While the vehicle bears a Schyster badge, rather than that of Vapid, the rear of the vehicle reads on the left side '''Minivan Cabby''', and on the right side '''Limited Vapid designed'''. The Cabby differs from the Minivan only in braking and suspension, as described below, and in its taxi fleet markings.  There is some minor cosmetic variation among Cabbys, including a variety of roof-mounted taxi signs, and the presence or absence of stickers, scuff bars, and black trimming above the sideskirts.
