Until the production version of the VW ID Buzz is released, I don't think there is a single (modern) van I would regard as cool.
 
I've probably said this before, but there are three vans that could be described as "cool", at least in my view. Just three.





All three are "people carriers" to me. Vans are utility/cargo type vehicles, at least more so than these three. To me at least.

Anyways. Meh for van, -1 for pretence of classiness despite having none, = uncool.

A literal F1 vehicle is merely a people carrier? Yeah, riiiiight.
 
Pretty sure you're wrong on those.
To be fair, I didn’t exactly mean “cool” by cool wall standards. For instance I may find a 500hp production minivan like the R63 fascinating but not a “cool” car either.

Those things are minivans or if you know the term MPV which is used in other regions.

Also, notice that they don't have sliding doors, something that which most true vans possess.
 
Vans in general (with some exceptions) are very boring and I can't really think of anything cool about a van driver. So yeah, uncool seems like an appropriate vote.
