2009 Mitsubishi Galant Review
The 2009 Mitsubishi Galant gets freshened styling and adds models to its lineup. The ES and Ralliart versions of this midsize car are joined for 2009 by the Sport Edition and Sport V6. ES and Sport Edition have a 160-hp 2.4-liter 4-cylinder engine that teams with a 4-speed automatic transmission. Sport V6 models use a 230-hp 3.8-liter V6. Ralliarts have a 258-hp 3.8-liter V6. All V6 Galants use a 5-speed automatic. Available safety features include ABS, traction control, curtain side airbags, and front side airbags. Ralliarts have specific styling cues and suspension tuning.
News
Galant won't change much for a while. A redesign isn't expected until model-year 2010-11, and only if Mitsubishi's U.S. arm can end its long losing streak in sales and earnings. But assuming business turns up, the next Galant would likely use a scaled-up version of the so-called C-platform developed with Chrysler Group. This serves the 2007 Dodge Caliber and Jeep Compass/Patriot crossovers, and next appears beneath Mitsubishi's redesigned 2008 Lancer compact cars.
