2004-2007 Mitsubishi Galant Review
Mitsubishi's Galant grew from compact to midsize dimensions in a 2004 redesign that brought new styling and more power. DE and ES models retained a 2.4-liter 4-cyl engine, but gained 20 hp, to 160. The LS and sporty GTS had a 3.8-liter V6 with 230 hp, 35 more than Galant's previous 3.0 V6. A 4-speed automatic was the sole transmission; V6 models included a manual shift gate. All 2004 Galants had 4-wheel disc brakes, keyless entry, and power windows/locks/mirrors. V6 versions came with ABS, which was available for the ES. The GTS had a sport-tuned suspension, specific grille, rear spoiler, leather upholstery, and sunroof. It also included 17-inch alloy wheels vs. the other models' 16-inch steel wheels. Front side airbags were standard for GTS and available for LS and ES. Curtain side airbags were unavailable. Against the 1999-2003 Galant, the '04 grew 4.6 inches in wheelbase, 2.6 in overall length, 3.9 in width, and 2.2 in height. The 2004 Galant lent its platform to Mitsubishi's Endeavor midsize SUV.
Year to Year Changes
2005 Mitsubishi Galant: Front side airbags became standard on all Galants for 2005, not just the most-expensive model.
2006 Mitsubishi Galant: The Galant was unchanged for 2006.
2007 Mitsubishi Galant: Freshened styling, curtain side airbags, and a sporty Ralliart model headline the 2007 revamp of Mitsubishi's midsize-sedan line. New for '07, the Ralliart has a 258-hp version of the V6 and uses a 5-speed automatic transmission. The '07s get revised nose and tail appearance.
