What it lacks in crowd-stopping style, this medium-sized Japanese contender makes up for with innovation. Introduced in 1995, it was the first Far East car to sidestep import quotas by being built in ...
The search for a small but reliable compact three-door hatchback can sometimes be a frustrating one on the used car market. Typically, you'll end up looking at something Japanese – and rather dull. In...
These are cars that can be placed in that file labelled 'but what do they look like?' That's a shame, as Mitsubishi's Galant, in every guise so far produced, has proved to be a capable design deservin...
The problem with most Galaxy/Espace ‘full-size’ MPV people carriers is that for the uninitiated, they feel just too big. Even those that don’t handle like vans feel like them to park.
For many famili...

Some car manufacturers have five year plans so rigid that Stalin would have given them the seal of approval. Every model is succession planned, facelifts are scheduled well in advance and every nation...
The Mitsubishi 3000GT represents a case study in technological overkill. Whilst some rivals used a technological sledgehammer to crack a nut, an apt image for the 3000GT would be a small peanut perche...
The Shogun Pinin is Mitsubishi’s offering in the baby 4x4 sector. With the Japanese giant’s range of 4x4s becoming increasingly varied, the Pinin draws on the strong brand image of the Shogun name and...
Mitsubishi weren’t the first company to enter the micro MPV sector, and they certainly won’t be the last. Their offering in this corner of the market, the Colt Space Star, isn’t the quickest, the most...
The Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VIII probably marked the zenith of the Evo cult in the UK. Fast, capable, affordable and selling like hot cakes, the Evo VIII may not have been the best looking of the Evo li...
You really do have to wonder what the ‘Sport’ refers to in the Mitsubishi Shogun Challenger and Sport models. Could picking the kids up from school ever be considered a sport? Or negotiating a shoppin...
Buying a used full-sized MPV can be fraught with all sorts of troubles. These vehicles often lead a hard life and buyers are often so anxious to find something in pristine condition that they’d often ...

If acronyms sold cars we’d be knee deep in Mitsubishi Sigmas. The fact that we’re not is down to the British buyer going with what they know, and the small matter of the Sigma being nowhere near as go...
Compromise, it would seem, is not a dirty word at Mitsubishi. Realising that many buyers wanted a full seven seat MPV but didn’t want something that steered like a supertanker and was a nightmare to p...
Sales of pickups in general have been buoyant in recent years, largely due to the fact that instead of incurring benefit-in-kind taxation based on their CO2 emissions they instead are taxed as commerc...
The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI is one of the most extreme cars available for purchase, and one of the closest things to a top-flight competition car on general release. Despite being based on the ...
The Lancer Evolution VII marked a change in focus for Mitsubishi’s cult rally replica. Based on the Cedia rather than the Carisma platform, it was a more refined and less extrovert car than its direct...
For years, Toyota's Landcruiser and Nissan's Patrol were Japan's answer to Land Rovers and Range Rovers. However, all that changed in 1983 when Mitsubishi released the Shogun. The vehicle industry wor...
The Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX marked the gradual winding down of the Evo cult in the UK. Faster and more capable than any Lancer Evo model to date, it was a car whose time had come and gone, the big Ev...

Why did Mitsubishi sell the Lancer Estate in the UK between 1999 and 2001? This question, perhaps more than any concerning value for money or whether the car was in fact any good, seemed the overridin...
If you’re in the market for a mini or supermini sized MPV, chances are you won’t have Mitsubishi’s Space Star in pole position on your shortlist. Why? It certainly isn’t the quickest, the most spaciou...
The Mitsubishi FTO is something of a symbol of UK buyer power. With Mitsubishi refusing to give the car an official UK launch, coupe buyers voted with their wallets and made the ‘Fresh Touring Origina...
Mitsubishi have a rather unconventional way of going about the business of manufacturing cars. Whereas rivals like Nissan, Mazda and Toyota have a rigid, pragmatic view of exploiting new markets, Mits...
If your heart is telling you that you want a convertible car but your bank manager doesn’t quite concur, there is still hope. On the used market, some of the most desirable drop-tops around take on a ...
You used to know where you stood with a Mitsubishi Colt. It would be reliable, fairly spacious and utterly boring. In 2004, Mitsubishi broke that particular mould and introduced a Colt with far more w...
