Where collects cars Mitsubishi Pajero Sport. How do Russian Outlander do: Kaluga Plant Mitsubishi with his own eyes

Legendary car, Million dreams, one of the very first SUVs that have gained popularity in Russia. All these data describe with accuracy Mitsubishi Pajero..

In the current 2015, this line of jeep will celebrate its 25th anniversary. But, nevertheless, it does not lose its popularity with us or around the world. Updated characteristics And a whole series of five restyled procedures make a car powerful, popular and, amazing, inexpensive.

Despite all this, before purchasing this carMany are interested in where they collect. After all, all technical data and model life depend on the quality of the assembly. Let's deal with you who collect and where they collect for Russia Mitsubishi. Pajero.

Mitsubishi plants

Model Mitsubishi Pajero, updated in 2014, is produced at all factories that exist in the world. Headquarters is located in the capital of Japan, Tokyo city. Not far from this place is a plant with a full production cycle and a special test track. It is the most powerful production of SUVs from Mitsubishi.

The second largest enterprise was a plant in Thailand. Machines of this assembly for some estimates were even better than Japanese. The work was worth it inexpensively, but was performed on conscience.

Unfortunately, the plant stopped producing cars in 2012. Then Thailand covered a powerful flood, which was boldly an enterprise from the face of the earth. At the moment, the corporation is trying to restore the plant, but to no avail.

The quality of our assembly

Until recently, Mitsubishi Pajero was imported to Russia by Rolf. If you viewed the model behind, then you could have a "ROLF" inscription. It is this company, more precisely, a group of companies has imported SUVs from the factory in Japan.

Now Mitsubishi Pajero produces in our country for Russia. This is done at the factory called MMS RUS LLC in Kaluga. But, the models of this assembly cover only incomplete 30% of our market. Therefore, most cars are still driving out of abroad.

Plants where Mitsubishi Pajero collect for Russia:

If you decide to purchase this jeep, then choose either Japanese or Russian assembly. The Japanese make all the times better, but our engineers collect details for our roads. As you know, "Wondering" a few deep holes, even on such a car can "break out" the suspension. And our road is eliminated almost everywhere, except the central tracks. Moreover, russian assembly It is some cheaper, as there is no need to additionally pay import duties.

I bring to your attention the report of the new paraderode - the old reader of the site Evgenia Zaitseva. Which also began new Year With the right act - the acquisition of Mitsubishi Pajero 4! Urrrra Comrades!

Especially valuable is the analysis from the point of view of the novice. I allowed myself to insert some small comments on the text.

So, we meet, read, ask questions.

So, 01/28/2013 My children's dream came true about the acquisition of Mitsubishi Pajero. But it all started in 1989, when I lived in Germany (my father was a serviceman) and two catalog about Pajero-1 fell into my hands. Failed like any boy, in the car immediately. He began to dream. Then, when Pajero-2 appeared in 1991, he invested his picture in Purse. And continued to dream.

Time went, school, institute, work - in 1999 invited to work with a degree in the Far East. Naturally, already for that time, the availability of Japanese-supported cars - the first Japanese car was Toyota Karina 92 \u200b\u200bG.V., then Toyota Caldin 2000 G.V., Toyota Corona Premio 98 G.V., Toyota Vista 95 G.V. (still rides, "Fire, water and copper pipes have passed on it).

But the dream to buy a full-fledged SUV always remained (although he forgot a little about Pajero - apparently the opinion about Pajero-3 was affected: some kind of unfortunate, excuse me of his admirers. But they do not judge the tastes), especially brother first bought himself Toyota Land. Cruiser 70, then changed it on Land Cruiser 100. The question was only in the means (at that moment I had already created a family, my daughter was born, moving to another city - Krasnoyarsk).

In 2012, the dream began to acquire reality - the benefit of the work of the circumstances was well. Because the options began to pass test drives, watch video, read articles. As an option began to consider the crossover ( a car In the family there is - to change it on the same, but only the new one did not see the point).

December. And then I get into hand information about Pajero-4. I went to the salon of the official representative, looked at the car, sat in the cabin. Alexey manager suggested immediately to pass the test drive - we went immediately in the field to check the possibilities of the car. I was delighted. ( Sun: we are in a quiet envy. We would have given cars for a test drive) I understood - this is what I want and take. Especially with the price on new car Almost decided. The manager suggested passing a repeat test, in any free time for me.

He began to collect all information about Pajero-4: articles, reviews, video. I understood more and more - this is he, my dream. Only the question got up: to take from officials or drive from the UAE (if the price is commensurate). Especially he knew that the Arab at the same price would be better equipped. Talked with the guys who drive cars with the UAE, asked to make a request: was needed with a 3.0-liter engine (I know that with 3.8 previously there were problems with the burden of inserts. Plus the tax on it is high due to power), Gray (or as it is called the official Metallic Officials). From the configuration were mandatory: mechanical locking of the rear differential, the rear view camera. According to these indicators, premiximal (instale) and the maximum (ultimate) of the configuration (the difference in the price of 100 thousand rubles) was suitable. In January, there was a response from the UAE - 3.0 liters no, there are 3.5 and 3.8 liters. But the price tag for delivery is almost like the official. Therefore, I decided to take an instill in place.

Specified from the manager for the presence - there was one gray, the engine is 3.0 liters, everything that I wanted in it was (the difference from the maximum - no: the multimedia system, which can be supplied and put the Handsfree Bluetooth system buttons with the control buttons on the steering wheel, sensors Light and rain, wheels 17 against 18 at the maximum speed).

The day of "X", with the decision "take" in the family decided. Signed on the repeated test drive. Alexey manager suggested a more severe test drive and longer. The test drive was the same 3.0-liter motor. The car, even on the usual studded rubber, has shown himself from the best side: cool lifts, pits, bumps, snow on the thresholds, the track of the previously covered cars and again slapped with snow (I even in one place when the car went from the first, second and third The times offered to refuse to do not "torment" the car, the manager reassured and insisted continue). I realized that Pajero-4 can a lot.

Upon returning to the salon, he told the manager: "Register". Moreover, currently a discount on the 2012 cars - up to 150 thousand rubles. I was not worried about the year of release (I take for myself, and not for sale), the car is new (the mileage on the speedometer is 5 km., Went to Russia in December). Immediately decided to take this discount: a signaling with autotyperhyravoma, the blocking is cutless to the automatic transmission, a set of rubber rugs to the salon, rubber pallet in the trunk, motion deflectors, iron protection of 3 parts (radiator, engine, box), shrinkles (a lot is read about bad noise insulation), put plastic protection on the headlights and booked from the chipping of the reservation bumper, the hood, front wings and fog lights (So \u200b\u200bit was on the test car - I liked it - "the result is on the face", there are no chips). Made everything. And as I previously pointed out - 01/28/2013 I became the proud owner of the new Mitsubishi Pajero 4, with a 3.0-liter engine, a complete set of installation, color "gray". My dream has come true.

Now I will try to run on 28 flaws:

1. Bad noise insulation: it is possible for someone and there is - I have previously traveled only on the Japanese - the level is the same, even became better. I took the car in the frost - the crickets did not reveal. I put the shoes immediately, the road is not heard. At speeds 60-70 km. Heard the work of the stove on low revs.

2. Lotted placesdriver and front passenger - in my family, the growth does not exceed 180 cm. We are enough with interest.

3. Problems with diesel ( Dieseldetonates 2000) - buy gasoline :-). I agree, I didn't even consider diesel.
4. Small armreston the front door: i did not feel - the elbow to go well, does not fly in motion.
5. Bad sound Closing front doors: the sound is slightly "deaf", it is felt. Close easily.
6. "LOCATED" signal:the usual signal does not be sicked.
7. No adjustmentspower steering - I did not have cars with such adjustment, so I do not suffer. - I agree with what I do not suffer. The lack of interest is compensated by the adjustments of the seat.
8. Hard suspension: suspension of a full-fledged soft SUV. Remember the UAZ. "Patriot" did not become softer many, and since it was a "goat". So they remained. Want to softer, take a crossover or sedan.
9. Heavy pricefor the official: personally compared the possibility of buying Araba - taking into account the New Year's discount as an aspectable. Especially not always the Arabs have those that need. For example, I wanted a 3.0-liter Arab - now there is no. There are 3.5 and 3.8 liter - delivery price tag as a 3.8 liter official. (Sun: Now, with new customs duties and a single customs space, Arabic options have ceased to be interesting).
10. Bad aerodynamics, Water from under the wheels falls into the opening windows: on the puddles have not yet traveled, I can not judge.
11. High probability rear bumper breakdowns When driving in Buaerakov: time will tell. While there is a routing process. "Pokatushek" did not suit.

12. Fog, more precisely, their resource leaves much to be desired. First sweat, then you are covered with almost everyone: Time will tell. In addition, I booked with a film - let's see how it will affect their safety. After all, it is known that fog - sick place Many machines taking into account the installation of glass instead of plastic (as previously done on old Japanese). For example, a friend travels on the 2008 Passat. G.V., in the summer a month twice was bursting a glass from the water.

13. The ceiling accumulates condensateand then flows through all the cracks, incl. And via DVD: time will tell.
14. PUBLED glassesclean and rattling: there's no such thing. I personally tried to move - even there is no backlash.
15. Tuner"Does not hold" channels when weakening the signal: I agree. The built-in antenna is missing. Outside the city begins to lose a signal. On the second car there is a Japanese tape recorder and an adapter for Russian ranges - there are no such problems.

16. No memory Seat and mirrors - Yes, it would not hurt. - i agree, it would be possible to put. But for such a price, their absence is fortunate.
17. B. pocketsdoors do not fit with the door closed - that's for sure.
18. Mafonsustain: the officials from Rockford refused. What I have enough. Musical hearing is missing - the sound seems normal.
19. Climate controllives his life and his algorithm does not match the sober mind: there are no complaints to the system. All adjustments are enough.

20. Folding system Seats leaves much to be desired: for a normal location in the cabin is enough. After passenger carsWhere this is not possible at all - it's just wonderful.

21. Doors Also live their lives, and periodically stuck at good speed, "sucking" front doors with a strong side wind: time will tell. So far, at high speeds did not go.

22. Every pebble flying in glass can become for him (glass) last. The probability of breaking Some times higher than on other cars: From chips on the glass, no car is insured. Even the coolest. Look at how many burst windows: the slightest chip, hot air and the crack ran. Only reservation saves. But according to the manager, the booking of the film is not recommended - over time, bands from janitors appear. But the installation of fully armored would save the situation (one owner left the owner for the installation of armored glass - there is no problem now).

23. "Brenchat" pads manual brakes: time will tell.
24. Leads brake discs:time will tell.
25. Winter, problems with the plant at temperatures<-30: any machine does not like frost. The ability to start in frost depends on many factors: the quality of gasoline, bodied oil, charging and age of the battery and so on. Therefore, when some say that my car starts in any frost without warm up, you can get ready for him. But for a long time it. I immediately put the signaling with autotoprogerev. In the summer, in addition to the signaling, I will put the preheater (why in addition: as it is known to be the contour of the preheater, you can put it on the engine (small) or engine and the interior (large). In the latter case, there is an excessive battery power consumption (we had a case: In 2009, friends arrived in January in Pazerika 4 2009., A couple of days the car stood in the yard. Worked the heater for a large contour - the battery was put in "zero"). Therefore, I will put the preparing for the engine (half hour program it works) , then I'll start the signaling to warm the cabin.
26. Dumb car: if you judge over the dynamics of overclocking - the car is not for racing. But I did not put myself such a task. For the measured ride it is enough. Acceleration acceptable. Want faster - go to manual mode.

27. Especially wild to watch all this after German cars: i am a supporter of Japanese cars. Repeatedly heard that the Germans in the Russian winters "tupits" the electronics - I have a uncle, I was "glulk" in the winter.
28. I will add from myself if you're all in a bunch - Niceless sound exhaustI would like a "permanent". Who like, and I like.

I will add a little from myself:

I did not like the narrow steps (out of the car, you put the leg, and a centimeter is closed with three heels of feet - that smoothly scratch). When landing such a problem, I do not feel - I adepened my leg to put sideways, in connection with this, the support is more.

On the stove: I basically use the directions: "Glass-legs" and "legs", the rest of the two "face-legs" and "face" is almost no. In order to enjoy the first first to always switch one "Mode" button. With multiple more convenient, because You can quickly twist clockwise and counterclockwise. On my second car for each direction, its own button is convenient.

Heated seats: only two positions. If they are warm up, even on moderate it is hot. On some machines, the knob regulator in 4 bands. Such would not prevent.

But. For the possibility of a car, I am ready for her to forgive everything.

Well, here seems to be at the moment all my feelings.

The crisis of 2014-2016 in the Russian car market led to very interesting changes in model rules of a number of companies working in our country. Mitsubishi, for example, the main percussion unit was the mid-sized Outlander crossover, manufactured in Kaluga. The magazine "The engine" saw with his own eyes, as Japanese crossovers with Russian registration are produced, and learned how many invarious Russian details in them.

Plant Mitsubishi and Peugeot-Citroen (PSMA Rus), located in the Kaluga region, was founded in January 2009, and earned in 2010. In September of the same year, the crossover Mitsubishi Outlander rose to the enterprise conveyor - then he was called Outlander XL. From that moment and to the present, the plant has released more than 75 thousand "Autlenders": both the former XL and the current Outlander III collected, in contrast to the predecessor, using the CKD small-size assembly technology (Complete Knock Down).

Production facilities of the plant "PSMA Rus" include the body shop, as well as the workshop of painting and assembly. In the first and last two lines: c-segment (for PEUGEOT and Citroen passenger cars) and SUV (for Mitsubishi crossovers). But the cars of all three grades together are painted together, on the same line. There are no stamping production at the plant: the details of the stamping are supplied to the "PSMA Rus" from the enterprises located in Russia, BENTERER and GESTAMP.

The process of assembling the Kaluga Outlander begins in the body workshop, divided into a number of sections: preparation, welding, installation of mounted elements and refinement of the body. Body details that should enroll on the main welding line, operators are manufactured manually at special posts of preparatory sections from ready-made stamped parts. The finished parts of the body go to the main line of welding, and at the beginning of the body is also collected manually, and then goes to a robotic Body Flexor station. On the welding line SUV of the Kaluga plant, a total of 26 robots work, the largest of which is a height of 7 m.

From the main welding line, the body enters the installation site of mounted parts, where the operators install doors, hood and trunk. Then, on quality control posts, specialists check the finished body: they estimate its geometry and identify visual defects like a dentin, scratch, etc.

Different kinds of small defects are eliminated at the stage of refinement of the body, after which it goes to the paint shop. There he has to spend about 9 hours, during which ten robots are working on it, which is applied on the body about 6 kg of various types of coatings.

Paints used on PSMA Rus are manufactured exclusively on a water basis (concern for ecology!), And the only solvent-based material is varnish. All wastewater before getting into the regional manifold, pass special processing at the exit from the factory

Before the finished body falls on the assembly line, the doors remove it - it makes it easier to access the salon to the interior of the machine. The doors are collected on a separate line and installed on a car at one of the final assembly stages. In the first of them, operators put on Outlander electrical equipment, dashboard, airbags, interior trim and noise insulation, suspension racks, headlights and ABS block.

But the most interesting thing happens on the section of the mechanics: here they collect and install the brake system, suspension, exhaust system and power installation. And then the so-called "wedding" occurs: a transmission assembly with the engine is connected to the body. On the same site, bumpers, wheels and protective "screens" under the body are put on the body - at the outlet Outlander is almost similar to the "commercial" car. "Almost" - because after the section of the mechanics, the car is filled with technical fluids, the seats, the steering wheel removed earlier and paste the windows: windshield - with the help of a special manipulator, rear and side - with the help of suckers.

In the final part of the assembly line there are inspection posts in the light tunnel: operators check the appearance of machines, gaps, door locks; In addition, cars are tested by electronic systems, wheel installation angles (on a special stand) and tightness (in a special soul), and are also tested on the test track.

The degree of localization of the production of Kaluga Mitsubishi Outlander is at the moment 32.8%. By the end of the year, the company intends to achieve a level of 36%. In Russia, Mitsubishi component suppliers are purchased glass, bumpers, seats, soundproofing materials, airbags, cooling and stamping system, exhaust system, wipers and tank of glass ware, tires, steering parts, lock and ventilation grille, fuel and brake tubes dashboard

At the same time, the overwhelming majority of suppliers of these parts are actually foreign companies operating in Russia. The original Russian of them is only one - "standardplast", supplying outdoor noise insulating mats on PSMA Rus.

Why not expand the pool of similar suppliers? As the Deputy General Director of the plant, Yoshia Inamori, told us, with Russian spare parts manufacturers, sometimes it is difficult to agree on the conditions of delivery.

"We wanted to buy a seat from one of the Russian companies, but we needed a chairs in the finished form - we do not have the opportunity to collect them at home. However, the Russian potential partner was ready to supply them only disassembled. As a result, we began to buy the seats of the American brand Lear, "Mr. Inamori said.

Deputy General Director of the plant Yoshia Inamori

What is the result?

In conclusion, about the production line of the Kaluga plant Mitsubishi. At the moment there is only one model in it - the Outlander crossover. In the Russian representative office of the company, as follows from the statements of its leadership, they think about expanding a number of cars produced under Kaluga, but at the expense of which models, while the secret.

It would be logical to assume that a compact ASX crossover can be pasted on the PSMA Rus conveyor, which will return to Russia already this year. However, most likely, he in the near future will be ahead of Pajero Sport. In the process of excursion to the plant, we saw a couple of such SUVs, one of which stood under the cover, and the engineers of the enterprise investigated the engineers of the enterprise.

According to Mr. Inamori, the decision on the launch of the production of Pajero Sport in Kaluga has not yet been accepted, however, the plant management has acquired two of these SUVs so that the specialists have studied their device in advance. As for the prospects of the Russian car market, then in Mitsubishi they look at them with careful optimism.

"In general, the demand in the Russian automotive market shows a positive trend, in connection with which we are positive and plan to increase the volume of production by the end of 2017 by 5% compared with 2016," said the Deputy Director General of the PSMA Rus plant.

Many motorists are interested in where they produce individual. For example, a person has Pajero and it is interesting to him where his brothers make. In this article we will see where are the individual models of Mitsubishi.

Where they collect Mitsubish.i. I.- MIEV.?

This is the first electric car of the Mitsubishi Motors concern. Not so long ago, the car appeared in Russia. At the moment, this model is going exclusively in their homeland - in Japan, at the Mitsushim plant in the city of Kurasiki.

Where they collect Mitsubish.i. Pajero. Sport?

The legendary sold in Russia has a multinational history.

• Since 1998, the car was produced exclusively in Japan.
• Since 2004, components from the United States began to enter Russia, although production in Japan continued.
• From 2008 to 2012, cars were covered from Thailand.
• From 2013 to 2015 was produced at the factory near Kaluga.

Here is such an interesting story of this Japanese SUV.

Where are the Mitsubishi Pajero collect?

Pajero is a dream of millions of motorists around the world. One of the first SUVs that quickly become popular. In 2015, the models were 25 years old, which made it one of the oldest models of the concern. During this time, the model survived 5 updates. Mitsubish.i. Pajero. Collect in Japan and this is good news for real connoisseurs of Japanese equipment.

Where they collect Mitsubish.i. Outlander.?

From 2012 to 2015, the assembly was conducted in Russia, all at the same factory near Kaluga. As a result, it turns out the following:

• 2010 - 2012 - Outlanders from the components from Japan were collected in Russia;
• Assembly after 2012 (until 2015) was held in Russia;

For the Russian assembly, tight quality control is conducted. At the moment, there were no questions about the quality of the Russian assembly, although some motorists did comments towards the Kaluga plant.

Where they collect Mitsubish.i. ASX?

- One of the most popular models in Russia in terms of price / quality ratio. In addition to production in Japan, at the factory nagging in the city of Obadzaki, the car is produced in the United States at the factory in Illinois. It is difficult to determine what kind of production in Russia more: American or Japanese. Some believe that in the American assembly models, complaints appear on the creak in the suspension.

Where they collect Mitsubish.i. Lancer.?

It's no secret that this model is one of the best-selling in Russia. The main competitor, Toyota Corolla, is a purebred Japanese who is going at the factory in Japan. On the same conveyor collect and. In Russia, the model comes with a small markdown, because the direct competitor model is a serious obstacle to this price bar.

Below is the table of countries produced by Mitsubishi models.

One of the first associations, which arise from us at the mention of Japan, along with the words "Country of the Rising Sun", Fuji, Sakura, is the name of the company - Mitsubishi.

This manufacturer of cars from Japan before the collapse of the Union blinked the minds of domestic motorists. Therefore, when the concern appeared with its products in Russia, the interest in it from the local drivers was already very large. Now, of course, enthusiasm is a bit rusty, but the fans of this brand still have enough. And their understandable thing interests - where Mitsubishi collect And what is the difference between this or that assembly.

Mitsubishi in the Russian automotive market

In English-speaking transcription, this name is written as Mitsubishi, in Russian-language texts, in addition to Mitsubishi, there are options for writing Mitsubishi, Mitsubishi. However, all these are different ways of writing that are not too informed citizens to find out where Mitsubishi collect for Russia and whose production is better to trust.

This industrial giant originated for almost a century ago, in 1870, as a shipbuilder of the Naya company, which also was engaged in the repair of ships and organizing their insurance.

After World War I, the concern was engaged in aircraft and continued to produce military aircraft up to the defeat of Japan in World War II and forced reorganization with the transition to peaceful rails.

Now the holding produces a variety of products from radio telescope to electronic products. But the greatest fame in the modern world, and in Russia, in particular, the trademark of Mitsubishi provides the same family of passenger cars.

Maching parts of Mitsubishi Holding, called Mitsubishi Motors. This is an autoconcern of global importance with headquarters in Tokyo, which is confidently incoming in the twenty largest companies in the world ranking in terms of products manufactured.

The manufacturer's machines are very popular in our country. Russian motorists highly appreciate Mitsubishi Lancer and Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, Mitsubishi Outlander and Mitsubishi Pajero SUVs, as well as smaller products of Japanese auto giant. True, the economic recession has led the last year to reduce sales and even the departure of the models from the Russian market.

The first cars of Mitsubishi were imported into our country inhabitants of the Far East directly from the car markets of Japan. Naturally, these were cars with the right steering, usually with considerable mileage.

But an attractive price / quality ratio led to a rapid increase in the volume and organization of car sales with this brand in Russia and even creating their own assembly production.

The official importer of Mitsubishi products for Russia for a long time was Rolf. This largest dealer network, founded in 1991 by Sergey Petrov, was transformed into the group of companies that are part of the Holding MMS RUS LLC.

One of the main activities of the holding activity is import and distribution of both new cars and having a nonzero mileage.

Where are the cars of Mitsubishi sold in Russia?

Naturally, the potential buyers of the Mitsubishi family of Mitsubishi is interested in not only the organization of their import and sales. Maybe mainly clients concerns their place of production, that is, the question where Mitsubishi collects for the Russian market.

Consider this question more.

1. The most essential part of the total number of cars of the Mitsubishi family sold in Russia is produced directly in Japan on the two largest auto plants of this corporation:

nagoya Plant plant in Obadzaki

plant Mizushima Plant in the city of Kurasiki

2. Part of the cars imported to Russia is going to the factory in the city of Normal (Normal), Illinois, USA. The plant is a joint venture of Mitsubishi and Chrysler, focused on the supply of their products around the world. Since 1991, the plant by 100 percent belongs to the Japanese owner.

It is from here that the Popular ASX crossovers come to our market. And as users say, these cars are not just not inferior to their fellows collected in Japan, but also significantly exceed them in quality.

3. Some fraction of car model Mitsubishi Pajero from 2008 until 2012 was going to Thailand. And for a number of reviews, the quality of these machines was even higher than those collected in Japan. However, the company was closed after the crushing flood in 2012, which had fallen into Thailand.

4. In 2010 in Russia, in the city of Kaluga, a joint venture of Mitsubishi (30% of shares) and French firms Peugeot and Citroen (70%), named Peugeot Citroën Mitsubishi Automotive Rus (RUS PSMA) were commissioned.

There are several models of developing Mitsubishi, in particular SUVs Outlander and Pajero. Moreover, after 2012 to the Russian dealers, these models began to arrive only by local assembly. Even the option of Pajero Sport with enhanced engines and a completely different suspension, since 2013 is produced for Russia only in Kaluga.

According to the reviews of specialists and buyers, this products are not inferior in the quality of the same name Japanese cars due to the hard compliance at the technological discipline plant and the assembly quality control measures. The conveyor is organized by the large-sized principle and the overwhelming majority of the components comes from Japan. Details of domestic origin are used only in double-glazed windows and exhaust system.

Thus, all the cars of the Japanese concern for the Russian market, in addition to the models of Mitsubishi Outlander and Mitsubishi Pajero release after 2012, with a guarantee are manufactured in Japan, Thailand or USA.

In Japan, the factory in the city of Kuroshaki is also produced from 2012 the first electric vehicle developed by Mitsubishi I-MIEV.
