The Mitsubishi Colt, which will be produced in the same factory as Renault Clio in Bursa, was introduced. Through a brand engineering agreement, the Colt, in many ways, shares the same DNA as the Clio. So, what features does the new Mitsubishi Colt offer to its users? Here are the details about the Mitsubishi Colt…
Step-siblings through brand engineering: Colt and Clio!
Would you like to meet the step-sibling of the Renault Clio, which has been produced at the Bursa Oyak Renault factory for a long time? Here is the Mitsubishi Colt. Produced through a brand engineering partnership, the Mitsubishi Colt has many similarities to the Clio in terms of DNA. The cars are nearly identical.
Starting from the front, Mitsubishi Colt features the tiger tooth LED daytime running lights, just like the new Clio. We should mention that while the front bumper structures of the two cars are very similar, Colt has a slightly calmer grille design. In the center of Colt’s grille, there is a huge Mitsubishi logo.
If we observe the vehicle from the right and left profiles, we can say that it gives a direct nod to the Clio. The design of the side doors of the Clio can be installed on the Colt, and vice versa. Moving to the rear of the car, there is a large Mitsubishi lettering.
The tradition of aligning the brand or model name at the back, which has been a trend in recent times, is directly included in Colt as a factory feature. Additionally, Colt has a transparent taillight design, just like the Clio.
Inside the cabin, there are hardly any changes. The console, which is present in the Clio, is also found in the Colt model. The only difference in the car’s interior from the Clio is the large logo on the steering wheel. Everything else is exactly the same.
New Mitsubishi Colt engine options!
The new Mitsubishi Colt will be offered with 3 different engine options. Among them, the 1.0 turbo petrol and 1.0 naturally aspirated engines are identical to the Clio engines. The 1.0 TCE turbo petrol engine will generate 90 horsepower. The 1.0 naturally aspirated engine is suitable for city driving, just like in the Clio. The car will generate 66 horsepower. In addition to these, there will also be a 1.6-liter hybrid unit accompanying the Colt. This unit will produce a total power of 141 horsepower.
