COLT street presence colt’s revolutionary range Colt is more than just a legendary name. It’s a fresh attitude to motoring, which considers drivers’ differing needs, and offers exciting, satisfying solutions to your quest for the right car. Today, more than ever, Colt has something outstanding for everyone. A breadth of choice that’s made possible by innovative design and breakthrough styling in our studios, as well as valuable experience and feedback gained during competition in the World Rally Championship. Because of this revolutionary, no-compromise approach, we now offer not just one, but three variations on the Colt theme: the affordable, yet fashionable Colt hatch; the stylish and fun Colt Cabriolet; and the sporty Colt Ralliart. COLT COLT CABRIOLET COLT RALLIART TURBO Look bold and feel great in the dynamic Colt hatch. Its Designed and built in Italy by the famous design house, Developed by enthusiasts for enthusiasts, this exciting distinctive and contemporary European styling gives Pininfarina, Colt Cabriolet is definitely the car in which to Colt is a revolution in dynamic performance and precision you the confidence to go anywhere. be seen.

For a start, many features which are expensive options with other makes and models come standard in the Colt. We don’t believe that you should have to fork out extra for optimum fuel efficiency; especially since Mitsubishi have The value packed Colt ES and VRX models give you the air-conditioning, tinted side and rear windows, speed-sensing mated this brilliant engine with the latest driving technology option of either manual or automatic. variable wipers, ABS or body-coloured bumpers. In this – offering you the choice of a CVT (Continuously Variable day and age, they’re what you should and can expect. Transmission) automatic, or a sporty European-designed The same goes for the engine: there’s no need to settle for 5-speed manual gearbox. The latest Colts also benefit from Mitsubishi Motors’ advanced passive safety system. Our Reinforced Impact Safety Evolution (or RISE, for short), means that you a basic unit when you can go straight to an all-alloy, MIVEC In fact, Colt is now recognised as setting new standards in and your passengers are protected by world-leading, powerplant, designed to deliver maximum power with small car performance, styling and equipment levels. energy-absorbing chassis design and technology. ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY superior engine performance At Mitsubishi, we engineer every car to perform. That’s why we’ve developed an innovative, all-alloy engine for the Colt. One which not only delivers on lightness and compactness, but also meets demands for high power, low fuel consumption and low exhaust emissions. MIVEC Our MIVEC (Mitsubishi Innovative Valve timing Electronic Control) technology uses an ingenious, lightweight timing mechanism to match engine performance to driving conditions. Much as an athlete varies his pace and breathing, the MIVEC engine alters its intake of fuel and expulsion of exhaust gases to suit the car’s requirements. As a result, your Colt achieves exceptional fuel economy as well as superb acceleration and improved handling. Another benefit of the MIVEC engine is its higher torque (or pulling power) at low speeds; along with sustained power up into the higher revs. In other words, because the MIVEC engine reads your car’s speed and adjusts its output accordingly, you’ll always find the power you need to achieve tasks such as overtaking or managing steep hills. ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY ENVIRONMENT transmissions e-colt SUPERIOR TRANSMISSION 5–speed manual transmission Rest assured that the Colt you drive is working hard A first for Mitsubishi in Australia, the Colt has Continuously The European designed 5-speed manual transmission to conserve our precious environment. Globally Variable Transmission (CVT) electronically integrated produces a crisp and sporty feel, by being perfectly Mitsubishi Motors recognise that the protection of with the MIVEC engine to ensure the vehicle is operated matched to the MIVEC engine. The gear ratios have been the environment is a top priority so continue to in the best gear ratio. INVECS III provides optimum torque designed to maximise the engine’s power and torque so build increasingly eco-friendly cars. Our focus is on control for uphill driving and optimum engine brake you can enjoy smooth and economical driving. reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from vehicles by raising powertrain efficiencies, improving petrol control for downhill driving. engines and reducing the weight of our vehicles. The CVT offers infinitely variable ratios that allow the engine to always operate at optimum rpm, irrespective In fact, the latest all-alloy engine in Colt is 36mm of the vehicle’s speed. It is also free of the jolts that smaller in length, approximately 30kg lighter, and conventional automatic transmissions experience when has approximately 20% fewer parts. More of its changing gears. components than ever are recyclable, adding to the many reasons why Colt has been given a competitive star rating from the Australian Government Green Guide. We will continue to protect the environment by forecasting and assessing the environmental impact of our products at all stages in their life cycle. Most importantly we look at: 1. Preventing global warming by reducing emissions of greenhouse gases 2. Preventing pollution by restricting emissions of substances harmful to the environment 3. Reducing waste and maximising the efficient use of resources by promoting conservation of resources and recycling. Measures for reducing environmental impact include: • Reducing the numbers of harmful chemical substances in our cars • Using more efficient and environmentally friendly components • Using recyclable materials • Improving fuel efficiency and reducing emissions through MIVEC engines and CVT • Using lightweight components to improve fuel efficiency • Managing the production process to reduce waste, CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION reduce air pollution, reduce noise and vibrations. front suspensioN rear suspension ULTIMATE RIDE AND COMFORT To ensure a more comfortable ride, a MacPherson Strut design suspends the front wheels of the Colt. The rear wheels are suspended by a torsion beam arrangement that optimises interior space efficiency. Particular attention has been paid to the tuning of springs, shock absorbers and rubber bushings. This has resulted in suspension rigidity and maximum tyre grip for improved ride comfort, optimum handling, stability and high-speed cornering control. driver confidence technology designed to save lives You and your passengers will enjoy every journey taken in the Colt, and you will have the peace of mind knowing that Colt is built with the safety of its occupants as a top priority. curved floor panels Designed to reduce vibration and increase body rigidity.

FOAM filled for improved rigidity and reduced noise. Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) The reason this breakthrough technology is so important As the name suggests, it works hand-in-hand with your Colt’s is that up until it was invented, any time you put the brakes ABS computer to assess load and distribute braking force on in a hurry they were likely to “lock up” and make your between the front and rear wheels. As such, it enables you to car uncontrollable. With the Colt’s ABS you can retain stop in a shorter distance than with standard brakes. complete control, while braking to avoid a tricky situation. Brake assist Your Colt also includes a third aid to stopping effectively. Brake Assist is a device which recognises emergency stopping situations within milliseconds, releasing pressurised brake fluid as soon as you depress the pedal, enabling greater, more accurate stopping power. stopping distance without ebd or brake assist reinforced safety Your safety is important. That’s why Colt is designed with both driver and passenger safety front of mind. Anti-intrusion brake pedal In the event of a front-on collision the brake pedal automatically moves away from the driver to reduce possible leg injuries.

On impact the pre-tensioner instantly tightens the seatbelt to effectively restrain the passenger, while the force limiter allows some forward movement of the occupant to release pressure on the torso. For added safety, side and curtain airbags are optional.
