Fuel economy is from Japan’s official tests and is usually better than you’ll see on UK roads. MLIT doesn’t list power or torque.
TA-CR6W
Listed 2005. The TA prefix (our explanation, not MLIT’s) means certified to Japan’s 2000 emissions rules, 25% below their limits. Check TA-CR6W against ULEZ and clean air zones.
| Engine | Gearbox | Drive | Weight | Seats | Fuel economy | Listed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4G941,999 cc petrol | CVT automatic | four-wheel drive | 1,430–1,480 kg | — | 13.4 km/L38 mpg, Japanese 10-15 mode test | 2005 |
| 4G941,999 cc petrol | CVT automatic | front-wheel drive | 1,360–1,410 kg | — | 13.8 km/L39 mpg, Japanese 10-15 mode test | 2005 |
Each row is one version as MLIT lists it. A version can appear twice when MLIT gave figures on two tests that year. Low-emission stars and trim names aren’t shown. MLIT gives fuel economy in km/L; the mpg figures are our conversion to UK gallons. Japanese tests are gentler than real UK driving, so expect less.
CR6 build year by chassis number
Japan’s carmakers list the chassis numbers each code was built with every year from 2015. Find the serial below, or use the build year finder.
| Built | Chassis numbers |
|---|---|
| 2015 | CR6-1100003 to 1102898 |
| 2016 | CR6-1102899 to 1103276 |

Check a CR6W before you buy
Make sure the car is what the advert says: the chassis number on the V5C should start CR6W-, and the engine and gearbox should match one of the versions above. Our free check reads the UK MOT history and compares it with the chassis code.

What fuel economy does the CR6W get?
Officially between 13.4 and 13.8 km/L (about 38–39 mpg), depending on the version, on Japan’s own tests. Real-world figures are usually lower, especially against the older 10-15 mode test.
How heavy is the CR6W?
Between 1,360 and 1,480 kg kerb weight, depending on the version.
Is TA-CR6W the same as CR6W?
Yes. TA-CR6W is the full model type: the letters before the hyphen are Japan’s emissions code, which changed as the rules were tightened, and CR6W is the model code. The chassis number starts with CR6W-.
About these figures
The model types, engine codes, capacities, gearboxes, drive, weights, seats and km/L figures are copied from MLIT’s yearly lists of cars on sale in Japan each March, so “listed” years are list years, not exact production dates. The English model names, mpg conversions, emissions code explanations and chassis number matching are ours. Lists before 2013 were printed as PDFs that we read by machine; where an older list gives an engine code that doesn’t match its capacity, we’ve used the figure the same model type has in other years. Check anything that matters against the car’s own papers. Spotted a mistake? Email [email protected]. All Mitsubishi model codes.
