Only smaller.
Anyway, despite being among one of the least powerful cars around, PD actually bothered to go ahead and put it in their game...
Sub-Zero.
In real life standards, I'd still say cool, since it's a 'cute giant' of sorts, in that it's got the same power as more tiny things, but it isn't tiny.

If you mix a bit of kei jidosha with a hint of van, you get awesomeness.
Sub-zero along with all microvans.

Sorry, I can't give this anything but a Seriously Uncool. I mean...come on.
It's a van. It's a weak van. It's a weak van shaped like a box. Need I abuse italics any more?
I can understand people liking quirky cars. This isn't quirky. It's just...a little boxy van with 36 hp. It takes a lot to make a van even begin to approach even the most basic level of cool, and this...just doesn't cut it.

Much as I think it's brilliant along with all Kei cars, I can't with a straight face vote for anything other than uncool.
Partly because of this:
My first thought when looking at the picture above was expecting it to be the sort of vehicle normally filled with giggling Japanese schoolgirls, and while I'm sure that floats some peoples' boats, it's not something to recommend a car on.

If it had an A-Team van paintjob, red wheels and a spoiler like the A-Team van, then it'd be amusing, and kinda cool in a strange way. But like Jai said, you'd find strange, pervy old men who can't drive over 15mph and spend more time looking at children than the road in it.
Un cool.
EDIT: I just described my bus driver... (minus the 15mph thing, he does 30 as a top speed)

That van is the Japanese version of VW's Samba Bus.
Seriously uncool.

I would just like to add that when considering the van as an entity, all the "OMG IT LOOKS LIKE A BOX" comments are redundant, because its shape is directly dictated by its purpose, which is practicality. Maximum space inside while still meeting old Kei car regulations. Put it in context in a Tokyo sidestreet back in the 1970s and it's a nice little van.
Doesn't make it cool, but you can't criticise it for doing its job.

Y'know, the only thing keeping this from being truly Seriously Uncool? It doesn't have Fake Wood Paneling. So glad they didn't go that road with it...

Because it wasn't made to be cool, it was simply made to serve it's purpose.

I went Uncool, if it had a more sensible engine I might have given it a cool.. but seriously 36hp? I pretty sure there are roads near me that this simply wouldn't get up!

I've never seen one in my life, so it makes it automatically cool for me

To all the guys above me saying it's a pedomovile:
COME ON! The damn thing is too small for that!
These little vans where used for delivering stuff like bread, milk or flowers.
Besides, if you notice, this is the escape vehicle of the blue guys in Interstella 5555.
Just sayin' 👍.
