The Minivan resembles a fourth generation (2001-2007) [[wikipedia: Dodge Caravan|Dodge Caravan]] or (2001-2003) [[wikipedia: Chrysler Voyager|Chrysler Voyager]]. The taillights resemble those found on the [[wp:Ford_Ranger_(North_America)#1998.E2.80.93present|2001-2005 North American-Model Ford Ranger]]. It can be found with a roof spoiler or luggage rails (although both cases feature a "Minivan Sport" badge on the rear liftgate). The van may come with a roof-mounted luggage rack or a rear spoiler. Unlike most American minivans, the Minivan does not have rear sliding doors; instead, it has swinging rear doors, which are common on minivans sold in Europe and Japan.

The Minivan is badged as both a [[Vapid]] vehicle and, in the case of the Cabby, a [[Schyster]] one, which may be an allusion to the Dodge Caravan being sold under different names (Chrysler Town and Country and Plymouth Grand Voyager); it may also suggest a partnership between Vapid and Schyster, or it may suggest a larger mother company like [[wikipedia:General Motors|General Motors]] which produces the same vehicles under different brands. Alternatively, the Cabby's "Limited Vapid Design" badging suggests that the Cabby could be manufactured under license by Schyster, or could be a [[wp:badge engineering|rebadge]] of the Vapid Minivan.
