Fake wood flooring for midi-MPV

No tittering please, this is a serious innovation. Honda’s new Japanese market Step Wagon sports “floor panelling that provides the look and convenience of a hard wood floor.” But not actually a hard wood floor, we presume. Oh, the joys of the intentionally ambiguous press release. Probably handy for easy hosing-out after a pack of pint-sized malcontents have spread themselves around on a long journey. And available in two winning wood-stain-effect colours. But, for now at least, not available in Europe and the US (your local IKEA branch, aside).
