Toyota facelifted the Yaris for the 2018 model year, but discontinued it after around 5,000 were sold; the three-door body style was less popular than the five-door.

2014 Chevrolet Spark EV (1 of 7,400)

2014 Hyundai Elantra Coupe

2003 Chevrolet SSR

UMC Aeromate. I cannot find any information on the number sold, but these were made between 1989 and 1994 and were based on the contemporary Chrysler minivans. This is the first one I've seen.

1995 Dodge Ram 3500 dually with the single cab and V10

Then Toyota thought they could fool customers by rebadging an inferior Mazda2 with an uglier front bumper

Thankfully, Mazda sold the 2 under its own name in Puerto Rico

@Sam-Blockhan I see quite a few Spark EVs around Atlanta but they're not so often spotted outside of built up areas. They all seem to be that same washed out blue.

Hmmmm, the Aeromate sounds interesting. That's pretty much the exact opposite approach as the Enterprise Food Van I like to post about.

@pip-bip Now I need a KubVan to go with it!

[ZHP Sparky - the 5th]

@Sam-Blockhan Nice finds! The Spark EV will forever be my first EV (in fact is still referenced in my username "Sparky the 5th")...was a really awesome little car, dirt cheap too.
