The name of a delivery van based on DAF 44 made in Sweden by Kalmar Mekaniska Verkstad[?] between 1969 and 1971. On the export market it was called Kalmar.

The name "Tjorven" comes from a popular Swedish family-show on television in the early 1960s.

A central character is a rotund and sunny little girl nicknamed "Tjorven".
