STORY

The Mazda Bongo is a compact cab-over van and microbus produced from 1966, used for both passenger and light-commercial duty. It was heavily badge-engineered over its long life, also sold as the Ford Econovan and Nissan Vanette among others. Its practicality kept it in production for decades.
