When the Chariot Grandis was first released by Mitsubishi it was simply known as the Chariot. The ﾔGrandisﾕ was added to the name later during the production schedule in 1997. It came out in 1979 as a compact multi-purpose vehicle that could seat five to seven people. And it was based off of a concept car, the SSW. Since its release in 1983, it has gone through four different model names and redesigns.
Depending on where you live will determine the name that the Chariot Grandis is sold as. You will find it with the nameplates of Mitsubishi Nimbus, the Mitsubishi Space Wagon, Mitsubishi Expo, and the Dodge/Plymouth as the Colt Vista Wagon. This last name was for the North American release of the minivan. It was also released as the Mitsubishi Savrin, the Kia Carstar, and the Hyundai Santamo. The Savrin was the name given to it in the Asian markets.
The Mitsubishi Chariot Grandis was designed to be larger and heavier than the previous version of the original Chariot, with a longer wheelbase. It was eventually replaced in the production lineup in 2003 by the Mitsubishi Grandis, even though the standard Chariot Grandis was produced overseas for a few more years prior to Mitsubishi completely discontinuing it.
