The Probox is used with a left-hand drive conversion extensively as a taxi in Peru and Bolivia. It remains in the JDM right-hand drive orientation for Jamaica. [2] Right-hand-drive Proboxes are used in Myanmar despite the country's traffic being oriented on the right.[3]

2015

In late 2014, the Probox received a redesign and became a replacement for the pre-facelift Succeed.

Starting in 2018, a rebadged version of the Probox has been offered in Japan as the Mazda Familia Van.
