"...Outside of Japan, in October 1997 Mitsubishi Motors launched the 1.8-liter GDI CARISMA produced at NedCar, the company's manufacturing unit in the Netherlands. This has since been followed by GDI-powered Volvo S40 / V40 and Mitsubishi SPACE STAR models, which are also produced at the NedCar plant. The company also exports GDI-powered GALANT and SPACE WAGON (CHARIOT GRANDIS in Japan) to Europe. Sales of all GDI models in Europe are very encouraging..."
