It appeals to buyers who want style and comfort without shouting, delivering a refined ride and clever tech that make daily driving feel a little more special — and yes, it’ll turn heads in the school run.

Mitsubishi Grandis

The Mitsubishi Grandis is a no-nonsense MPV that hides a surprisingly sleek profile, making family duty look almost stylish. It’s spacious, easy to drive, and built to shrug off daily chaos, though the cabin feels dated and it prefers a relaxed cruise to any hot-hatch antics.
