Mitsubishi Motors Corporation’s subsidiary Mitsubishi Motors Europe is set to roll out the all-new Grandis compact sport utility vehicle (SUV) in Europe, marking the inaugural vehicle under this name to be introduced to the market in 13 years.
The vehicle, which will be produced at Renault’s Valladolid plant in Spain, is based on the Common Module Family (CMF)-B platform and is supplied by Mitsubishi Motors’ Alliance partner Renault on an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) basis.
The lineup includes the mild hybrid (MHEV) and hybrid EV (HEV) models.
The Grandis, whose name signifies “large and impressive” in Latin, features 19-inch alloy wheels, a two-row, five-seat interior with adjustable rear seats, and an expandable luggage area.
The SUV’s MHEV powertrain is available with a 1.3-litre direct fuel-injection gasoline turbo engine and a HEV option, offering a combined output of 115kW.
The HEV model combines a four-cylinder 1.8-litre gasoline engine with two electric motors, a power electronics box involving two built-in inverters and converters.
