The Toyota Noah (Japanese:トヨタ・ノア, Toyota Noa) is a seven or eight-seater minivan with two rear sliding doors built by Toyota and sold mainly in Asian countries. It is positioned below the Estima and Alphard, and above the Sienta. It replaces the LiteAce/TownAce Noah, retaining the "R" model code and generation numbering. The Noah has two twin versions, initially at launch, it only had one version, named the Toyota Voxy (Japanese:トヨタ・ヴォクシー, Toyota Vokushī), which is intended to be the sportier version of the Noah, featuring split headlamps and clear taillights, but however, starting from the third generation, a luxury version of the Noah was introduced, named the Toyota Esquire (Japanese:トヨタ・エスクァイア, Toyota Esukwaia), sporting a different grille design and a much more premium interior. The Noah is exclusive to Toyota Corolla Store Japanese dealerships, the Voxy to Toyota Netz and the Esquire to Toyopet Store. Its main competitors are the Honda Stepwgn, Mazda Biante and Nissan Serena. Its sales in Japan are enhanced by the fact that the exterior dimensions comply with the Japanese dimension regulations for compact vehicles, and the engine displacement is under 2,000 cc to keep the annual road tax affordable for private purchase.
The first generation Noah was released in November 2001, alongside the Voxy. The facelift model was released in August 2004, and discontinued in June 2007.
The second generation Noah and Voxy were released in June 2007. The facelift model was released in April 2010, and discontinued in January 2014.
For 2007 models on Japanese models only, G-BOOK, a subscription telematics service is available as an option.
In Indonesia, the facelifted Noah was launched on December 11, 2012 as the Toyota NAV1 (Japanese:トヨタ・NAV1 (ナブワン), Toyota Nabuwan). It was assembled locally at the Bekasi plant. It was available in two trim levels, G and V, and was launched to fill the gap between the Kijang Innova and the Alphard. The engine used is the 2.0 L 3ZR-FAE petrol inline-four mated with a continuously variable transmission.
In 2014, the NAV1 was updated offering 3 trim levels: G, V and V Limited, all with continuously variable transmission only.
After the NAV1 was discontinued in January 2017 because of declining sales, it was replaced by the facelifted third generation Voxy in August 2017, which is imported from Japan.
The third generation Noah and Voxy were introduced in January 2014. For the first time, an engine start stop system is used to improve fuel economy. It is also the first Toyota minivan to have one-touch sliding doors. In October 2014, the Toyota Esquire was launched, which was essentially the luxury version of the Noah. The Noah/Voxy/Esquire also receives Toyota's T-Connect services including a 10-inch infotainment display, with full navigation, ETC unit, online services, wireless phone charger, Noah Panoramic Live Sound System (eight speakers), rear parking camera with guidance lines, USB/AUX inputs as well as Toyota Safety Sense C which incorporates features such as collision warning, adaptive cruise control, lane assist, as well as high beam assist.
All three models received a facelift on July 3, 2017 with significant changers to the lights, hood (bonnet), bumper and the front fender.
