The 2007 Mitsubishi Raider gets an available V8 engine as a late model-year addition. This slow-selling pickup truck is essentially a reskinned Dodge Dakota. Available body styles include a two-door extended cab with a 6.5-foot bed and a four-door "Double Cab" crew cab with a 5.3-foot bed. Extended cabs come in LS trim and have rear-hinged back doors that don't open independently of the fronts. They have a 210-hp 3.7-liter V6 engine. Double Cabs come in LS, SE, and DuroCross trims. Depending on model selection, available engines include the V6 or a 230-hp 4.7-liter V8. A 6-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission is available with the V6. A 5-speed automatic is standard with the V8. Most Raider models are rear-wheel drive. LS Double Cabs are available with four-wheel drive that includes low-range gearing but should not be left engaged on dry pavement. Rear-wheel ABS is standard, and four-wheel ABS is not available. Also unavailable are safety features such as an antiskid system, traction control, front side airbags, and curtain side airbags.
