Mitsubishi chassis codes

Carsensor's catalog and ja.wikipedia: on sale January 2007; still in production. The CV1W clean diesel was added later, so its own start date is after January 2007. Aliases include sibling body/engine codes of the same generation, so any of these codes maps to this generation window.

Carsensor's catalog runs 1994-05 to 2007-01; ja.wikipedia gives a Japanese sale period from May 1994 to 2007 (replaced by D:5 in January 2007; built for export to 2014). Aliases include sibling body/engine codes of the same generation, so any of these codes maps to this generation window.

Carsensor's catalog runs 1986-06 to 1999-09; ja.wikipedia: full model change June 1986, Japanese stock sales ended 2004 (production continued abroad). The JDMBUYSELL file: P25W is the June 1986 4WD diesel Exceed and P35W the 1991 Chamonix high roof, so a P35W is unlikely to predate the late 1980s. Aliases include sibling body/engine codes of the same generation, so any of these codes maps to this generation window.

Same window as D27A (Mitsubishi history February 1990; carsensor 1990-02 to 1995-05). US-built by Diamond-Star Motors; a US-market version existed.

Mitsubishi's history: imported from the US and sold in Japan from February 1990; carsensor's catalog runs 1990-02 to 1995-05. Built by Diamond-Star Motors in Normal, Illinois, USA: the same car was sold new in the US as the Eclipse GSX (and Eagle Talon/Plymouth Laser).

Mitsubishi's history: imported and sold in Japan from June 1995. Carsensor's coupe catalog ends May 1997, while ja.wikipedia says the 2nd generation was built to 1999, so later Japanese sales may exist. US-built (Diamond-Star Motors); a US-market version existed.

Carsensor's Eclipse Spider catalog runs 1996-05 to 1998-08. US-built; a US-market version existed.

Mitsubishi's history: the Spyder was imported and sold in Japan from October 2004 (ja.wikipedia: 25 October 2004); carsensor's catalog runs 2004-10 to 2006-03 and ja.wikipedia gives a March 2006 sales end. US-built; a US-market version existed.

Same window as DE3A: Mitsubishi's history October 1994; ja.wikipedia production end July 2000; carsensor's catalog ends December 1999.

Mitsubishi's history: on sale October 1994. ja.wikipedia: production ended July 2000 (with the GTO), sales ended September 2000. Carsensor's catalog ends December 1999, earlier than the stated production end. Never sold new in the US.

The 6th-generation Galant went on sale October 1987 (carsensor and ja.wikipedia); ja.wikipedia says the VR-4 went on sale December 1987. Carsensor's generation ends April 1992 (7th generation May 1992). JDMBUYSELL notes JAF lists four-wheel-drive 2.0 cars as E38A and E39A, with and without turbo. Sold in the US as the Galant VR-4 (1991-1992).

Carsensor's 7th-generation catalog runs 1992-05 to 1996-07; ja.wikipedia lists E84A in the generation and gives the twin-turbo VR-4; the JDMBUYSELL file ties E84A to GAZOO's May 1992 VR-4 catalogue entries. E84A itself was not seen on sampled carsensor grades.

Mitsubishi's history: 8th-generation Galant (with VR-4) on sale August 1996. ja.wikipedia: the VR-4 was dropped at the September 2002 change; carsensor's preceding block ends August 2002. The EC5A code is taken from a ja.wikipedia photo caption, not a catalog page.

Same generation window as Z16A (Mitsubishi history: October 1990; ja.wikipedia: production ended August 2001; ja.wikipedia's FTO article says July 2000). ja.wikipedia: Z15A is the code without 4WS. Not seen on sampled carsensor grades.

Mitsubishi's history: on sale October 1990 (ja.wikipedia: 25 October 1990). Carsensor's catalog and ja.wikipedia's GTO article give August 2001 as the end; ja.wikipedia's FTO article says GTO production ended with the FTO in July 2000, so the two disagree. ja.wikipedia: Z16A has 4WS, Z15A does not. Sold in the US as the Mitsubishi 3000GT (and Dodge Stealth).

Mitsubishi's history and carsensor both give October 1992 (ja.wikipedia's text says sales began September 1992). Carsensor's Evo I block ends December 1993; Evo II (CE9A) followed in January 1994. 7,628 sold. Never sold new in the US (the US got the Evo VIII from 2003).

Mitsubishi's history: Evo II on sale January 1994, Evo III February 1995. Carsensor's blocks run 1994-01 to 1995-01 (II) and 1995-02 to 1996-07 (III). Both generations share the CE9A code, so the code alone does not say II or III. Never sold new in the US (the US got the Evo VIII from 2003).

Mitsubishi's history: Evo IV on sale August 1996. Carsensor's Evo IV block runs 1996-08 to 1997-12; Evo V followed January 1998. Never sold new in the US (the US got the Evo VIII from 2003).

Mitsubishi's history: Evo V January 1998, Evo VI January 1999. ja.wikipedia: VI T.M.E. 8 January 2000. Carsensor's blocks run 1998-01 to 2001-01. The code alone does not say V, VI or TME. Never sold new in the US (the US got the Evo VIII from 2003).

Mitsubishi's history: VII February 2001, VIII January 2003, IX March 2005. Carsensor's catalog runs 2001-02 to 2006-12. Evo X (CZ4A) replaced it in October 2007. The US-market Evo VIII and IX share this platform but were built to US specification.

Mitsubishi's history: on sale October 2007. Carsensor's catalog ends March 2016. ja.wikipedia: TC-SST production ended late December 2014, the 5MT continued to August 2015, the 1,000-car Final Edition went on sale August 2015 and sales ended 18 April 2016, so the last build month is not clearly published. A US-market Evo X existed.

Mitsubishi's history: on sale September 2005. Carsensor's catalog runs 2005-09 to 2006-12; MR versions from 29 August 2006 (with the sedan MR, 1,500 cars in total). Never sold in the US.

Not in the source model files; added per task. Carsensor's catalog starts February 2014 and ja.wikipedia gives 27 February 2014; still in production. Built by Suzuki as an OEM version of the Carry.

Not in the source model files; added per task. Same window as U42T: Mitsubishi's history January 1991 (ja.wikipedia February 1991); carsensor catalog 1991-01 to 1998-12; ja.wikipedia's infobox names U41T/U42T.

Not in the source model files; added per task. Mitsubishi's history: 5th-generation Minicab on sale January 1991 (ja.wikipedia says February 1991); carsensor's catalog runs 1991-01 to 1998-12. ja.wikipedia's infobox names U41T/U42T for the truck.

Not in the source model files; added per task. Same window as U62T: Mitsubishi's history January 1999 (ja.wikipedia February 1999); carsensor catalog 1999-01 to 2014-01.

Not in the source model files; added per task. Mitsubishi's history: 6th generation on sale January 1999 (ja.wikipedia says February 1999); carsensor's catalog runs 1999-01 to 2014-01. Replaced by the Suzuki-built DS16T in February 2014.

Mitsubishi's history: on sale May 1982. Carsensor's catalog covers only the last version (1989-06 to 1990-12); the 2nd generation launched January 1991. JDMBUYSELL cites ten 1st-generation codes (L041G to L149G) from a Mitsubishi steering notice; each code covers only part of the run, so a code's own start may be later than 1982. Aliases include sibling body/engine codes of the same generation, so any of these codes maps to this generation window. Sold in the US as the Montero.

Mitsubishi's history: full model change January 1991; carsensor's catalog runs 1991-01 to 1999-08. Codes are from Mitsubishi's steering notice (via the JDMBUYSELL file) and carsensor. Engines changed during the run (a 3.5 V6 GDI arrived in May 1997, per the JDMBUYSELL file), so a specific code may start later than January 1991. Aliases include sibling body/engine codes of the same generation, so any of these codes maps to this generation window. Sold in the US as the Montero.

Mitsubishi's history: on sale September 1999 (ja.wikipedia: 2 September 1999); carsensor's catalog runs 1999-09 to 2006-09. Codes are from Mitsubishi's brake-booster notice (via JDMBUYSELL) and carsensor. Aliases include sibling body/engine codes of the same generation, so any of these codes maps to this generation window. Sold in the US as the Montero.

On sale 4 October 2006 (ja.wikipedia; carsensor catalog starts October 2006). ja.wikipedia says orders closed 1 July 2019 ahead of the end of Japanese-market production in September 2019 and gives a sale period to July 2019; carsensor's catalog runs to October 2019. The production end month is not clearly published, so only the year is given. Aliases include sibling body/engine codes of the same generation, so any of these codes maps to this generation window.

ja.wikipedia: the Pajero Evolution went on limited sale in October 1997. The end is the 2nd-generation catalog end (carsensor 1999-08); Evolution production itself was limited and its last build month is not published.
