About these figures

  • Asking prices come from cars listed for sale on JDMBUYSELL right now, by listing location. They are not sale prices or landed costs, and a car listed in more than one place can appear more than once.
  • Why no sale prices? Most sales are agreed directly between buyer and seller, and the final price is rarely reported to us. Until sale prices can be confirmed, asking prices are the fairer guide.
  • Recently sold uses the last asking price of cars their sellers marked sold on JDMBUYSELL in the last 90 days. Records from our previous site and bulk updates are left out.
How we measure · Cite this data

How we measure: asking prices use cars listed for sale on JDMBUYSELL that show a price. The tick is the median, the box the middle half and the whisker the lowest to highest. A typical asking price needs at least 5 priced listings. Japan and outside Japan follow where each car is listed, and each needs at least 5 priced listings of its own. A location with 1 to 4 shows "Fewer than 5" and no price; the other location then shows its median and middle half without its count, lowest or highest, so the smaller location's figures cannot be worked out from the totals. Buyer interest is the JDMBUYSELL Buyer Interest Index, updated monthly; it measures online interest across the wider market, not activity on JDMBUYSELL. Buyer inquiries are distinct buyers who messaged a seller in the last 30 days, shown as a band. Methodology

History & specs

About the Subaru Sambar KV3

The Subaru Sambar is Subaru's kei-class commercial vehicle line, produced across KS/KV (1990-1999), TT/TV/TW (1999-2012), and the Daihatsu-sourced S321/S331-based generation from 2012. All Subaru-built generations use the EN07 660cc four-stroke four-cylinder, a departure from the earlier two-stroke design of the original Sambar. The TT2 Sambar Truck (flat-bed) and TV2 Van (enclosed panel van) are the configurations most commonly imported for agricultural and light work applications in North America.

The EN07Y supercharged variant, fitted in Dias Wagon and upper TT/TV trim levels, provides approximately 47ps versus the naturally-aspirated EN07's 40ps, a proportionally significant difference in a vehicle with a curb weight under 800kg. Four-wheel drive is available across most body styles and was specified frequently in JDM markets for agricultural use. Sambar Dias is the passenger-configured wagon body with windows on all sides and an optional rear climate unit, distinct from the cargo-focused TV Van. Supercharged Dias with 4WD is among the more sought-after import configurations.

KS/KV generation from 1990 is subject to NHTSA's manufacture-date 25-year provision. TT/TV/TW from 1999 reached NHTSA's manufacture-date age threshold from 2024 onward. Right-hand drive. In North American farm and rural markets, the JDM kei truck serves as a low-speed utility vehicle. Verify state and local regulations for on-road versus off-road classification before purchasing. EN07 parts availability has improved as import volume has grown; specialist distributors in the US and Canada now stock common wear items. The post-2012 S321/S331 generation is a rebadged Daihatsu Hijet mechanically.
