Brazilian Ford F1000 (short-bed F250) from the 80s with a 4-pot MWM turbodiesel that I've seen in my street. The double-cab is an aftermarket conversion.

There are some that got a 3-cylinder 64hp non-turbocharged engine too, I've recently saw one of those for sale.

Diesel-powered VW double-cab T1 truck

Some folks are already calling it "poor man's Amarok".

Fiat Palio Espresso Panel Van

They were available in South Africa with a 1.2L gasser engine, but it's not so usual to find them in Brazil and usually with a 1.0L flexfuel engine instead.

Kia Pregio, which in Brazil was sold as Kia Besta due to the success of the original Besta which got replaced by it

Not so sure if it qualifies as "eco", but with a 2.7L 4-pot IDI Diesel it performs the same jobs a Chevy Express 1500 or a Ford E-150 would require at least a V6 gasser to perform.

Early Volkswagen Saveiro, the Fox equivalent to the Caddy.
