What are the length, width, and height of the Toyota Hiace?

The model under the Brilliance Renault brand is the Hiace. The length, width, and height dimensions of the Hiace are 5020mm/1690mm/2225mm, which are official data. The length of the Hiace refers to the distance between two vertical planes perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane and touching the outermost protruding parts at the front and rear of the vehicle; the width refers to the distance between two planes parallel to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane and touching the outermost rigid fixed protruding parts on both sides of the vehicle; the height refers to the distance between the highest point of the vehicle and the vehicle's supporting plane. The naturally aspirated engine of the Hiace has a maximum power of 100kW and a maximum torque of 185 Nm. This engine reaches its maximum power at 5600 rpm and its maximum torque between 2800 and 4000 rpm. It is equipped with multi-point fuel injection technology. There are national regulations regarding vehicle dimensions. According to the national standard 'GB1589-89', the total width of a vehicle does not include side mirrors. The limitation on vehicle width is to provide sufficient lateral clearance for overtaking in adjacent lanes. This means that, according to national standards, the significance of vehicle width data lies in ensuring enough space during overtaking, preventing accidents due to excessive width or situations where road markings are narrower than the vehicle's width. Additionally, national regulations stipulate that the total width of a vehicle must not exceed 2.5m to meet the usage requirements of public roads.
I've been driving for over a decade, and the Toyota Hiace is a practical van in terms of size. The standard version measures approximately 4.69 meters in length, 1.69 meters in width, and about 1.95 meters in height, but this varies by model. For instance, the extended version can reach 5.27 meters in length, the high-roof version exceeds 2.14 meters in height, and the widened version may be around 1.78 meters wide. I use it for cargo transport or short-distance passenger services, with ample space to accommodate multiple rows of goods or a full load of passengers. However, the height requires caution when entering or exiting garages, as some height-restricted barriers in older urban areas can be easily scraped. The narrow width makes it suitable for navigating tight alleyways and offers good maneuverability in turns, though the large turning radius requires practice. The length determines cargo capacity, and I often transport large furniture in a single trip, saving both fuel and money. Overall, the design is well-suited for versatile needs.
