Mitsubishi Colt — TIMING CHAIN OR BELT?

MODEL LIST - (UPDATED 2023)

| Home / Mitsubishi / List of Mitsubishi Colt Models without Timing Belt

The Mitsubishi Colt is a utility car manufactured by the Japanese marque Mitsubishi. Since 1962, Mitsubishi has used this name for numerous vehicles.

The first generations of the Colt were produced between 1962 and 1971, when the Japanese brand used the brand name “Colt”, followed by the engine displacement. They were mostly kei-cars. Starting in 1978, Mitsubishi launched numerous versions of the Mitsubishi Mirage with the name Colt for various markets. This surname was used only on the hatchback bodies, while ‘Lancer‘ was used for the sedan versions. During this era, the Colt was a C-segment compact.

Starting in 2002, Mitsubishi launched a new Colt worldwide, now transformed into a B-segment MPV, a concept very similar to that of the Honda Jazz. This new version had numerous redesigns and also a good range of different engines. In some markets, the Japanese brand also introduced a larger version of this same model called Mitsubishi Colt Plus.

From 2023 on, the Colt will be built on the Renault Clio V platform thanks to the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi alliance agreements.

There are a total of 6 generations of the Mitsubishi Colt to date.
