1969
Mitsubishi Colt Galant
The Colt Galant was Mitsubishi's first independently designed passenger car — a compact sedan using the company's own 1.5-litre SOHC engine rather than a licence-built design. Its styling by Mitsubishi's own team and competitive specification at a reasonable price made it the foundation of Mitsubishi's car-making identity.
