1992-1996 Eagle Summit Wagon Review
Mitsubishi launched a pair of "mini-minivans," sized between subcompact wagons and minivans. Variants of the shorter of the two wagons (called Expo LRV by Mitsubishi) were marketed as the Eagle Summit, and also as a nearly identical Plymouth Colt Vista. Seating five, with a 168.5-inch body, the wagons had a sliding passenger-side door and a one-piece rear liftgate. The removable rear bench seat, with a split seatback, could be tumbled forward for additional cargo space. A 113-horsepower, 1.8-liter 4-cylinder engine was standard, but a 116-horsepower 2.4-liter four might be installed as an option. Both engines could have either the standard 5-speed manual transmission or optional 4-speed automatic. Power steering was standard on all models. Base (DL) and LX models were front-drive, while the AWD version had permanent 4-wheel drive. Antilock braking was optional, but Summit Wagons lacked an airbag.
Year to Year Changes
1993 Eagle Summit: A stronger 2.4-liter engine was available this year: a 4-valve-per-cylinder design, rated 136 horsepower (up 20). That engine was standard in the LX wagon and optional in other models.
1994 Eagle Summit: A driver-side airbag went into '94 models, with a motorized belt for the front passenger.
1995 Eagle Summit: After 1994, only the Summit Wagon remained, now with dual airbags. The front passenger also had a manual 3-point seatbelt. Both the Plymouth Colt Vista and the Mitsubishi Expo LRV were gone. All AWD wagons had the larger engine.
1996 Eagle Summit: Little change was evident this year, except for some new colors and interior fabrics.
