What transmission does the Mitsubishi Grandis use?
2 Answers
Mitsubishi Grandis uses a 5-speed manual transmission and a 4AT transmission. The entire lineup of this vehicle is equipped with a 2.4-liter naturally aspirated engine, which delivers 130 horsepower and a maximum torque of 205 Nm. This engine features multi-point fuel injection technology and utilizes an aluminum cylinder head with a cast iron cylinder block. The Mitsubishi Grandis is an MPV model under the Mitsubishi brand, known for its relatively spacious interior. The dimensions of this vehicle are 4705 mm in length, 1780 mm in width, and 1650 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2776 mm. It employs a MacPherson independent suspension at the front and a semi-trailing arm independent suspension at the rear.
I've always driven Mitsubishi vehicles, and the classic Grandis MPV is equipped with the INVECS-II automatic transmission, which delivers an exceptionally smooth driving experience. It shifts gears with almost no jerking, making it particularly suitable for long-distance travel and providing a relaxed, effortless feel. Early models offered some manual versions, but most Grandis on the road are automatic. The transmission is tuned for comfort, ensuring a smooth ride even when carrying family members in the MPV, and it's quite reliable for daily use. Maintenance-wise, regular oil changes are necessary, approximately every 60,000 kilometers, to prevent oil seal aging and leakage issues. In terms of fuel consumption, it's slightly higher than modern CVT transmissions, but its reliability is unquestionable—my old Grandis has run over 100,000 kilometers without any major repairs.
