Шины на Mitsubishi Grandis (Митсубисхи)

The history of the car began in 2003, when Mitsubishi Motors introduced a new family minivan, which replaced the Mitsubishi Chariot Grandis model. It was designed with an emphasis on the European market and combined a spacious seven-seat cabin with a dynamic body design that was significantly different from the more utilitarian minivans of the early 2000s. Grandis became one of the attempts by the brand to create a family car with a pronounced sporting character, while maintaining a high level of practicality.

Design and body architecture

One of the most striking elements of the model was its exterior. Mitsubishi designers applied a "dynamic" line of side glazing, stretched headlights and a characteristic wedge-shaped body. For a minivan of that time, such styling looked unusual: the car was more like a large wagon or a sports crossover than a traditional family van.

The body is distinguished by a significant wheelbase and short overhangs, which made it possible to increase the cabin space. With a length of about 4.8 meters, Grandis offers a full-fledged three-row layout. The second row of seats is mounted on longitudinal sliders and can be moved, freeing up additional space for passengers in the third row. Compared to the main competitors - such as Toyota Previa, Honda Odyssey and Ford Galaxy — in "Mitsubishi" they bet not so much on the maximum internal volume, but on the combination of capacity and expressive design.

The engine range consisted of two engines. The base was a 2.4-liter gasoline "four" of the MIVEC family with a power of 165 horsepower. This engine was equipped with a phase shift system, which allowed improving elasticity and reducing fuel consumption. An alternative to it was a turbocharged diesel engine with a volume of 2 liters from "Volkswagen", developing 136 horsepower. Such versions were primarily designed for the markets of European countries, offering high torque at low revs and low fuel consumption when the car is fully loaded. And only this engine could be combined with a 6-speed manual transmission. Gasoline versions were available with a 5-speed "mechanics" or a 4-range "automatic" INVECS of the second generation. In addition, in accordance with the sports exterior, the settings of the power unit control unit were brought in, providing quick responses to the accelerator pedal.

They, in turn, were complemented by the chassis layout. The front suspension is made according to the McPherson scheme, and the rear uses a multi-link structure. This combination provides stability at high speeds and comfortable smoothness of the ride. The steering with a hydraulic booster is tuned quite accurately for a car of this class. In turns, Grandis demonstrates smaller rolls than many competitors. Thanks to this, the car feels more agile in its behavior. The brake system includes disc mechanisms on all wheels and electronic stabilization systems. This allowed increasing safety and making management more predictable.

Interior and equipment

The cabin is designed for seven passengers and features a thoughtful ergonomics. The central console is located high and oriented towards the driver. The instrument panel is made in a concise style with large scales and soft lighting. The second and third row seats are easily transformed, allowing you to quickly increase the volume of the luggage compartment. In the folded state, a practically flat cargo area is formed. Depending on the configuration, the car was equipped with climate control, a multimedia system, leather interior trim, electric seat adjustment and a panoramic roof. For family use, an important element was the developed safety system, which includes front and side airbags.

Against the background of competitors, Grandis stood out with a combination of sports design and a practical cabin. Many minivans of that era focused exclusively on the volume of internal space, while Mitsubishi offered a more emotional character of the car.
