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.
DBA-CV2W
Listed 2012–2020. The DBA prefix (our explanation, not MLIT’s) means petrol passenger car certified to Japan’s 2005 emissions rules, 75% below their limits. Check DBA-CV2W against ULEZ and clean air zones.
| Engine | Gearbox | Drive | Weight | Seats | Fuel economy | Listed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4J111,998 cc petrol | CVT automatic | front-wheel drive | 1,680–1,760 kg | — | 15 km/L42 mpg, Japanese 10-15 mode test | 2012–2019 |
| 4J111,998 cc petrol | CVT automatic | front-wheel drive | 1,680–1,760 kg | — | 13–13.6 km/L37–38 mpg, Japanese JC08 test | 2012–2020 |
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.

Check a CV2W before you buy
Make sure the car is what the advert says: the chassis number on the V5C should start CV2W-, 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 engine does the CV2W have?
MLIT lists the Mitsubishi Delica CV2W with 4J11 1,998 cc petrol.
What fuel economy does the CV2W get?
Officially between 13 and 15 km/L (about 37–42 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 CV2W?
Between 1,680 and 1,760 kg kerb weight, depending on the version.
Is DBA-CV2W the same as CV2W?
Yes. DBA-CV2W is the full model type: the letters before the hyphen are Japan’s emissions code, which changed as the rules were tightened, and CV2W is the model code. The chassis number starts with CV2W-.
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.
