Review of the Japanese minivan "Mitsui Grandis"

The first generation of minivans "Mitsubisi Grandis" was born in 2004 year. According to the developers themselves, this model should have been positioned as a premium car of the new century. Of course, he did not discover a new milestone in the history of the world market, but it was "Grandis" that served as a "donor" for the creation of such bestsellers as "Outlandender" and "Lancer". Well, let's look at what this premium car of the new century, "Mitsubishi Grandis", represents.

Feedback and review of design

Japanese developers have endowed the minivan with a bright and memorable appearance. Its impetuous "beak" is so harmoniously designed that there are no claims to it even among the most avid critics. By the way, it is this part of many minivans that strongly "limps" in design and is often disproportionate. An interesting form of optics and a "smiling" bumper create a positive impression of the "Grandis". Interesting was the idea with round fog. In general, if you recall the appearance of the above described "Lancer" and "Outlandender", you can notice a lot of "donor" similarities, in particular, in the grille and front optics. However, even the similarity with these cars does not spoil the impression of the exterior appearance of the minivan. What can I say, this is a real bullet, ahead of flying towards unprecedented edges!

Inside everything is also on top. The salon impresses with its style and thoughtfulness. High landing and a large windshield give the driver excellent visibility. It was not without its branded "chips" - everywhere there are any cupholders, boxes and pockets. The highlight of the minivan is folding seats, which in one second can turn into a full table. And what is not the house on wheels now? At night there is good lighting, and the height of the ceilings will satisfy even the tallest person.

Cost

The only obstacle that prevents to make the Mitsubishi Grandis the best seller on the world market is the cost. On average, the price for it is about 30 thousand US dollars. To be more specific, the package with a 2.4-liter four-cylinder petrol engine, automatic transmission, air conditioning, side and front airbags, heated seats, as well as ABS and EBD systems costs $ 31 thousand $ 90.

Conclusion

If you do not take into account the cost, we can say that the "Mitsui Grande" is the ideal family minivan. It easily transforms into a real house on wheels, at the same time it is managed as a prestigious car. On the level of comfort, he is not one step behind his competitors. Moreover, the Japanese passenger places are not just a place for "extra cargo". The rear rows are really comfortable, they have seat belts and lateral support beads. Therefore, it is great for long trips (for example, at sea). Of course, you have to pay for the quality, but thirty thousand dollars for the minivan Mitsubishi Grandis, let it be Japanese, that's too much.
