From 2010, a concept mini van.

The HX1 delivers an estimated 73.5 mpg (U.S.) while offering seating for six adults. It’s plug-in hybrid drivetrain is mated to a 204 horsepower turbo-diesel engine to power the front wheels, while two electric motors drive the rear wheels. Aside from the fancy hybrid tech, a low drag coefficient of just 0.28 also contributes to the slippery look and feel of the HX1.
Read elsewhere that it seats six.

Bucks the current trend of tall cars/crossovers/SUV's.
