RSSColt From Mitsubishi is Fine for Short Journeys
 |
The Colt from Mitsubishi is yet another hatchback that is now found lumped in with a myriad of others in the saturated supermini market. The automobile market is very much sink or swim recently and to stay afloat, it is a must that the car has got to have something a little different or special to attract interest. Let us see if the Mitsubishi Colt be riding along on the crest of a wave or sinking irretrievably amidst the gloomy waters of supermini failure.
The primary impression that will be created on Mitsubishi Colt will
be quite impressive as the exterior ticks boxes you wouldn’t expect it to, as it manages to look solid and chunky, but still can be assured that it could be fitted it into all but the very tightest of parking spaces. The Colt has a tall roof which means that there will be enough room to comfortably seat at least 4 6-foot+ adults; reassuring news if you were ferrying guests to a medical giant’s convention.
The car has elegant interiors, which is relatively basic, but looks smart enough and appears to be of a high manufacturing standard and all the plastics are rigid and will stand up to ham-fisted testing. The seating is quite firm, that makes long journeys a little undesirable. But still as these cars are primarily designed for short city driving, this is not something of big concern.
The Mitsubishi Colt comes in 3 door, 5 door and cabriolet editions and the engines range from 1.1 Litre to 1.5 Litre Petrol. This is quite enough proof for it having no delusions of grandeur about the Colt being adapted into some kind of racing car. This car has been designed with practicality in mind, so the evaluation criteria should be more a question of handling, boot space, economy and ecology.
