The Nissan Elgrand (Japanese: 日産・エルグランド Nissan Erugurando) is a full-size luxury MPV manufactured by Nissan Shatai for Nissan since 1997, available in three model developments, the E50, the E51 and as of 2010 the E52. The Elgrand is commonly used by celebrities in Japan, Taiwan, China (Guangdong, Hong Kong,), Thailand and some other countries around the world. The Elgrand's main competitors are the Toyota Alphard, also called Toyota Vellfire, and the Honda Odyssey.
The first generation of the Nissan Elgrand was produced from May 1997 - May 2002. Various engine combinations were available including the petrol VG33E, VQ35DE and diesel QD32ETi and ZD30DDTi. The E50 had a 4 speed automatic transmission and came in either 2- or 4-wheel drive. The Caravan Elgrand was exclusive to Nissan Bluebird Store, while the Homy Elgrand was exclusive to Nissan Prince Store Japanese dealerships. The top trim level equipment packages were installed with internet enabled satellite navigation called CarWings.
The E50 version of the Elgrand came in several model variations including:
From 1997 to 2002 the E50 Elgrand was sold by Isuzu as the Isuzu Filly for the Japanese market exclusively.
Used E50 Elgrands are commonly exported to Australia, New Zealand, Russia, UK, and formerly the Philippines before the ban on importation of right-hand drive vehicles. The Australian and New Zealand fleets of Wicked Campers include E50 Elgrands.
