Etymology
The name "Canbus" is a combination of the verb "can", describing the car's ability, and the noun "bus", describing the car's bus-like shape and inspiration from Volkswagen Type 2, which was also known as the "Bus".[1]
Overview
The Move Canbus borrowed its overall design from the Hinata concept car. The Hinata was first showcased at the 2015 Tokyo Motor Show alongside the Tempo food truck and Noriori wheelchair accessible van concepts.[2]
The Canbus is targeted towards the women sales demographic.[3]
