When the Ralliart trim joined this Galant for 2007, it became the very first Galant to get Mitsubishi's new MMCS infotainment system — a 7-inch touchscreen with GPS navigation.
When the Galant landed in the US for 1999, the EPA reclassified it into the mid-size class — and by its 2002 facelift, the standard 2.4-litre four had actually been derated, down to 140 hp from 145.
This Galant quietly made suspension history: the world's first 4-wheel multi-link setup on a front-wheel-drive car, a design that later carried over to the Mitsubishi Eclipse.
This Galant generation debuted Dynamic ECS, the world’s first production semi-active electronically controlled suspension in a passenger car.
The Galant VR-4 gave Mitsubishi its first World Rally Championship event win at the 1988 Safari Rally-adjacent 1000 Lakes-era campaigns, driven by Kenneth Eriksson.
Mitsubishi hadn't sold a Galant in America for years before this generation arrived in 1985 -- the last time the nameplate appeared stateside, it wore Dodge Colt wagon badges instead.
South Africa named this Galant its Car of the Year in 1977, running an Astron engine developed locally rather than shipped from Japan.
One car, five identities: this Galant sold as the Dodge Colt in the US, Plymouth Colt and Cricket in Canada, Chrysler Valiant Galant and Chrysler Galant in Australia, and Colt Galant in Europe.
The first Galant launched at a dealership built just for it, called the Galant Shop.
Rivals
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.
It briefly served as senior sibling to Marquette, a GM companion brand cancelled after just one year.
Nissan hired former BMW engineers to help develop the 510's suspension, which is why period reviewers frequently compared its handling to the BMW 1600/2002.
A Trabant 601 won its class at the 1970 Monte Carlo Rally, with a second 601 right behind it in second.
The 600 was a stopgap: the P50's body over the 601's mechanicals, and for a while its estate was built alongside the new 601 saloon.
The G80 Sport brought a 370 PS twin-turbo 3.3 V6, a mesh grille and copper-tinted chrome with copper stitching to match.
The Vigor was sold only with a five-cylinder engine, an unusual configuration Honda used to fit a longer engine transversely under a short hood.
The GS/E coupe earned the nickname "German Charger" for its long hood, short deck stance borrowed from Detroit muscle cars.
This DeVille/Fleetwood was the first production car anywhere to mount its V8 sideways, Cadillac's front-drive gamble on the new C-body.
