About the Mitsubishi Colt
The seventh-generation Mitsubishi Colt marks the nameplate's return to the European market after a nine-year hiatus, following the discontinuation of the Z30 generation. Developed as part of the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance, it is a badge-engineered version of the fifth-generation Renault Clio, sharing its CMF-B platform and sheet metal. The entry-level 1.0 MPI trim features a naturally aspirated three-cylinder engine designed for urban efficiency rather than outright performance. While it lacks the punch of its turbocharged siblings, it offers a modern interior with a focus on connectivity and safety, benefiting from Renault's established B-segment architecture.
