Successor | Toyota Urban Supporter |
The Quick Delivery 200 was released in January 1986. With the new version, a total load of up to two tons could now be transported. A Toyota 3B engine with a displacement of 3.0 liters and a Toyota B engine with a displacement of 3.4 liters were available. Due to new emission regulations in 1994, the engines had to be adapted accordingly. At the same time, the interior was also revised and refreshed with new style elements. For the first time in 1999, the name has now been abbreviated as QD. For the QD200, Toyota uses a 4B engine (diesel engine) with a displacement of 3.7 liters. The QD200 is currently classified as a low-emission vehicle by the Japanese ministries, giving customers tax breaks. Appropriate approval was given by the Ministry of Land and Economy, which awarded the QD200 the environmental prize. In 2000 Toyota added an LPG variant with a 2.7 liter 3RZ engine to an engine range. However, the diesel has so far remained the more popular version with customers.[3][4]
