Etymology

The "Canbus" name is a combination of the words "can", describing the car's ability, and "bus", describing the car's bus-like shape and inspiration from Volkswagen Type 2, also known as the "Bus".[3]

Design

The Move Canbus borrows its overall design from the Hinata concept car. The Hinata was first showcased at the 2015 Tokyo Motor Show alongside the Noriori food truck and Tempo wheelchair accessible van concepts.[4] It has a distinctive retro styling with a two-tone color combination, taking inspiration from the Volkswagen Type 2.

The Canbus is targeted towards the women sales demographic.[5]
