The controversial Toyota minivan has recently been banned for commercial transport after several accidents tied to its use for long-distance travel.
The National Road Safety Authority (NRSA) announced the ban on Wednesday, April 8, 2026, after an investigation into the growing use of the Toyota Voxy minivan as public transport, particularly after being converted from right-hand drive to left-hand drive.
"The manufacturer informed us that the Toyota Voxy is a minivan designed for young middle-class families, not for commercial passenger use. In other words, it is not designed for high mileage and is intended for use on paved roads," the NRSA said at a press conference.
Below is a Facebook post with details of the Toyota Voxy ban.
