Mitsubishi Revives Grandis as Spain-Built Compact SUV With Hybrid Power From €28,600

Built in Valladolid on Renault underpinnings, the model targets family buyers through hybrid efficiency, flexible packaging and locally sourced production.

Overview

  • The Grandis goes on sale in Spain with production confirmed in Valladolid using Renault's CMF-B platform, closely related to the Renault Symbioz.
  • Two electrified options are offered: a 130T MHEV around 140 hp and a 180 HEV with a combined 159 hp, with the MHEV available with manual or an optional 7‑speed dual‑clutch automatic for €2,250.
  • Early road tests show contrasting efficiency, as Car and Driver recorded real‑world averages above 6 l/100 km in the 130T MHEV while Las Provincias matched about 4.3 l/100 km in mixed driving with the 180 HEV.
  • Urban operation in the HEV can be electric for much of the time according to testing, supporting low consumption figures that align with the official 4.3 l/100 km rating.
  • Family‑focused features include a sliding rear bench with up to 16 cm of travel, a large boot approaching 500 liters depending on configuration, Google‑based infotainment, ADAS with a dedicated off button, and an 8‑year/160,000 km warranty.
