Well, mid in the sense that the engine isn't sitting in front of you.
But yeah, one of the craziest drivetrain layouts I've ever seen, aside from the old Previa.
Also, by nice to drive, I was alluding to the ride... very comfy for a working van. Never had a chance to test the handling limits... but endemic understeer is a whole lot better than what Japanese rear drive vans do... which is hop, skip and oversteer over any road that isn't completely smooth.
