Mitsubishi Space Runner

The Mitsubishi Space Runner is a compact van from Mitsubishi Motors that was built between autumn 1991 and summer 1999 as a first generation (N10 and N20) and from summer 1999 to mid-2002 as a second generation (N60 and N70). Its Japanese name was Mitsubishi RVR, a name Mitsubishi revived in 2010 for a crossover SUV. The first generation had four doors, with a sliding door on the passenger side and a tailgate, which was unusual in its class at the time, and up to the B-pillar it was identical to the Mitsubishi Space Wagon. All models used four-cylinder engines with a four-speed automatic or five-speed manual gearbox, and the top Japanese version, the RVR Hyper Sports Gear R, used the turbocharged 2.0-litre 4G63 from the Lancer Evolution with 250 PS. In America the first generation was sold under many names through the Chrysler cooperation, including Mitsubishi Expo LRV, Eagle Summit Wagon, Plymouth Colt Vista and Dodge Colt Vista.
