Overview edit

 
Yema Spica rear

Originally known as the Yema M302 before launch, the Yema minivan was revealed during the 2015 Chengdu Auto Show in China.[3][4]

The styling of the Yema Spica is especially controversial as the whole vehicle appears to be reverse engineered from the second generation Toyota Alphard.[citation needed] Like the Alphard, the Yema Spica is marketed as an MPV for chauffeur business while primarily made for the Chinese market.

Unlike the Alphard's engine (2.4–3.5 liters), the Spica has a 1.5-liter engine. Prices of the Spica ranges from 59,800 yuan to 75,800 yuan.
