Van
The sixth generation Sambar was released in November 1999 and meets the new Japanese domestic standards for small cars in 1998, which allowed for an increase in body size, primarily due to the lengthening of the front end. The base remained the same, the Sambar remained practically unchanged in terms of internal dimensions. The car combines sufficient carrying capacity, economy and safety. The Sambar Van (TV) commercial van comes with two sliding rear doors. Despite being rear-wheel-drive, this model has a flat floor and a large luggage compartment. The Sambar is equipped with an in-line 4-cylinder SOHC engine - naturally aspirated or supplemented with a supercharger. In addition to the rear-wheel drive version, there is a complete set with all-wheel drive (plug-in or permanent).
The cheapest Sambar Van (2- and 4-seater) have a simple interior with primitive seat upholstery and unpretentious interior trim, a rigid folding bench is installed in the back. But in addition to inexpensive versions, there is a more comfortable Dias option. In fact, this version of the van is close to the passenger Dias Wagon in terms of interior equipment - there are more comfortable front seats (with a pocket on the back of the passenger), separate rear seats with an armrest, improved equipment (air conditioning, power accessories). The front panel of the Sambar looks very functional - it has trays for storage, a place at the top is reserved for a 2DIN audio device, a quite informative "tidy" is installed, and in cars with an "automatic" gearbox lever is conveniently located next to the steering wheel. In 2001, some changes were made to the exterior (for example, transparent front turn signals), the quality of the materials used was improved. The two variants of the gasoline unit of the EN07 series, which was installed on the Sambar with the arrival of the sixth generation, have a working volume of 658 "cubes", the SOHC design with an 8-valve gas distribution mechanism is a typical "classic" inherited from the previous model. This in-line "four" differs from the three-cylinder units of competitors in more balanced operation and low vibration. The performance of the atmospheric unit is 46 hp. The Supercharger motor produces 58 "horses". Sambar Van can be equipped with a 5-speed manual or a 3-speed automatic. In December 2000, an electric version of the Sambar EV van was released with a maximum (nominal) power of 40 (16) kW and a torque of 103 Nm. 20 pieces of 12-volt 60 Ah batteries located under the rear seat provided a total voltage of 240 V, the range was 110 km, and the maximum speed was 90 km / h. Modernization of the gasoline unit in 2001 increased the capacity of the base "aspirated" to 48 hp, reduced fuel consumption and emissions. Subaru Sambar is built on a frame, its chassis includes both independent suspensions - front MacPherson and rear on oblique arms. Brakes - front ventilated disc, rear drum. The steering has a rack and pinion mechanism with an amplifier. Body dimensions: length 3395 mm, width 1475 and height 1905 mm. With a wheelbase of only 1,885 mm and a turning radius of 3.9 meters, not every car can boast of such agility. The ground clearance is almost 18 cm, but in this generation of Sambar, the front overhang has increased and on large bumps there is a chance of catching the bumper. The Sambar Van is great for commercial use. With the rear seats fully folded down, there is a huge, flat luggage space with a length and width of more than 1.8 and 1.2 meters, respectively. The carrying capacity of the van, depending on the number of passengers, is 200-350 kg.

The body of the Sambar, thanks to its enlarged front end, meets the stricter safety requirements in a collision. There are front belts with load limiters, three-point belts in the rear seats (except for the most inexpensive early Sambar Van vans), driver's airbag (standard since April 2000), optional ABS. In April 2000, all models with "mechanics" are equipped with the Clutch Start System. At the end of the same year, safety measures in the cabin were strengthened: the driver's seat belt fasteners were shifted to the rear, the shape of the driver's seat was changed. In addition, a fuel cut-off valve is now installed on the model.

At first glance, the Subaru Sambar looks like a typical Kei-class micro van, but it has its own unique features (take at least the rear-engined layout). The car is interesting for its strong chassis and body, 4-cylinder engine, spaciousness, simplicity of design. Cons - a small engine resource, weak "aspirated", small wheels, difficulties with spare parts.

The base remained the same, the Sambar remained practically unchanged in terms of internal dimensions. The car combines sufficient carrying capacity, economy and safety. The passenger version of the Sambar Wagon (TW) is called the Dias. Its body is equipped with two sliding rear doors. Despite being rear-wheel-drive, this model has a flat floor and a large luggage compartment. The seats are comfortable and can be fully reclined. The Sambar is equipped with an in-line 4-cylinder SOHC engine - naturally aspirated or supplemented with a supercharger. In addition to the rear-wheel drive version, there is a complete set with all-wheel drive (plug-in or permanent).
The Dias Classic series was equipped with separate second-row seats with a fairly soft filling and improved upholstery, compared to commercial Sambar Van, the inner door trim looks more attractive, the overall interior trim. The increased practicality of "Sambar" makes it easy to re-equip the car for the carriage of goods, there are many compartments for things, some of which can be hidden under the rear seats, which, like in the previous generation, are installed on a special platform. The front panel looks very functional - it has trays for storage, a place at the top is reserved for a 2DIN audio device, a quite informative "tidy" is installed, and in cars with an "automatic" gearbox lever is conveniently located next to the steering wheel.

The ground clearance is almost 18 cm, but in this generation of Sambar, the front overhang has increased and on large bumps there is a chance of catching the bumper. The Sambar Dias Wagon is quite spacious inside. The length of the cabin is 1840 mm, the narrow side panels of the body give a decent width of 1325 mm, the height is 1385 mm. With the second row fully folded down, a huge, flat luggage space is created. The front and rear seats can be converted into a bed. If only the seats on the left side are left in this position, a long load can easily fit into the passenger compartment.

At the end of the same year, the driver's seat belt fasteners were displaced to the rear, the shape of the driver's seat was changed, and a fuel cut-off valve was installed.
