A mini van is a type of automobile similar in shape to a van that is designed for personal use. It is also known as a multi-purpose vehicle, people-carrier, people-mover or multi-utility vehicle. Mini vans are taller than a sedan, hatchback or a station wagon, and are designed for maximum interior room. The mini vans have a public image as being used by families with young children living in suburban areas. In North America, it came at a time when families wanted smaller more fuel-efficient vehicles without the negative stigma of the station wagon.

Despite the popularity of small SUVs, authorities say that mini vans are better choices than SUVs for many families, with roomier interiors and better fuel economy. Mini vans are also much less prone to rollover accidents than some SUVs. According to the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, mini vans are safer than SUVs in a crash, due in part to their lower centers of gravity.
