About This Mitsubishi Minicab
The Mitsubishi Minicab is a compact Japanese kei truck built for tight spaces, light-duty hauling, and practical utility use. Its small footprint makes it easy to maneuver around farms, properties, shops, warehouses, hunting land, and job sites, while the truck bed gives you useful cargo space for tools, feed, supplies, parts, or equipment.
This example has a more aggressive setup than a stock kei truck, with a 2-inch lift, aftermarket wheels and tires, light bars, a winch, bed liner, and other accessories. It keeps the simple, useful kei truck layout while adding extra presence and functionality for off-road-style property use or small business needs.
Exterior Condition
The exterior presents well overall, with white paint that still has a good shine. As expected on a 25+ year old vehicle, there are some light scratches and minor age-related imperfections, but no major dents or damage.. The lift kit, wheels and tires, light bars, winch, bed liner, and roof-mounted sun visor give this Minicab a more rugged look than a standard kei truck.
Interior Condition
The interior is clean overall and shows well for the age. The dash, door panels, seats, center trim, and steering wheel are all in good condition, with no interior damage. The added radio, speakers, tachometer, and upgraded door cards give the cabin a more finished feel while keeping the simple kei truck layout.
Powertrain and Driving
This Minicab is powered by a 660cc gas 3-cylinder engine paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. It is equipped with 4x4 and low / high range selection, making it useful for property, farm, and light off-road-style use. The truck starts, runs, and drives well, and the transmission shifts smoothly.
Title, Import, and Location
This vehicle has been legally imported from Japan and comes with a clean South Carolina title ready to transfer. It is available at Japan Direct Motors near Columbia, South Carolina, and can be seen, purchased, and driven home today. Stop by during business hours, or call/text ahead at (803) 622-8962 with questions, availability, or to set up a test drive.
