In
short: A comfortable
midsize sedan for your wallet and four of your friends.
What’s
not to like in this entirely new rendition of the Galant?
You get cool styling, lots of room and decent fuel economy.
All these attributes combine to make it the perfect
car for the family.
Every
component of the car is new from the chassis to the
sound system via the engine. Competition is tough in
that segment and Mitsubishi wanted to deliver a serious
candidate.
We
think this is an economical way to drop off the kids
at school and get you to work. A trip to the market
is made convenient as well. The car got going well for
us but for those seeking added performance, you may
opt for the 230 horsepower engine with 17-inch wheels.
Now that the Galant is built in America you have another
reason to get one. Plus you get a lot of car for the
money.
The
formed plastic silver dash with integrated blue lights
made it very difficult to see certain functions during
the day, but things improved at night with the backlight.
