Mitsubishi's fourth-generation Galant features some new standard and optional equipment, like a LATCH system for child seats and traction control and heated mirrors for cold-weather dwellers who purchase the all-weather package. It now meets LEV standards.

Pros:
  • V6 power, attractive styling, excellent handling, comfortable interior.
Cons:
  • No manual transmission for V6 models, too much road noise in the cabin.

  • Great car - 2001 Mitsubishi Galant
    By -

    i bought the car about a year and a half ago and it was in great running condition and since then i have been driving it like a bat out of hell and it has held up very nicely i have only had to do routine maintenance and a few cosmetic repairs and the 3.0 V-6 has plenty of power during races and not to mention its easy to work on

    I bought this car back in 2000, brand new, with 46 miles on it. i drive it everywhere. the only major problems ive had were the stock tires (eagle ls), they were terrible, and wore out within 20000 miles. the car gets up and goes without hesitation. i have no problems passing people or hitting on- ramps. great stock cd player

    We bought this car new, very reliable It has 185000 mi on it. I have changed the oil every 3000 mi and Ive tuned it up twice. I love it, it runs like brand new. ALL original parts and no rattles. I do not plan to get rid of it any time soon. Im going to see how many miles I can get out of it.

  • Mitsu Galant Review - 2001 Mitsubishi Galant
    By -

    I have had it for 3 years. Driving to an from a construction site and have had no real problems. The shocks and struts have been the biggest issue. Had to replace a bushing on the rear shocks for warranty work at about 16000. Started to have issues with shocks again at about 60000 nothing that affects drivability, just an annoying squeek.

  • good car for the money - 2001 Mitsubishi Galant
    By -

    A solid car for me and the kids. Got a great deal on it, as the Galants dont hold their value the best. The 4 cylinder makes decent power in the midrange rpms. Rides very smooth and is a quiet car compared to my old Saturn. Good looks, handling, and doesnt feel cheap or tinny like Nissan Altima and Honda Civic. Labor costs for regular maintenance are reasonable, although Im not one to ever visit the dealership.

  • So Far So Good - 2001 Mitsubishi Galant
    By -

    Just purchased this car about a month ago and I have been pretty happy so far. I paid what I would have paid for a Civic or Sentra but my GTZ is V6 leather power everything low miles. So far I am happy.

  • Very safe and efficient car - 2001 Mitsubishi Galant
    By -

    I love this car, it is very fuel efficient and extremely low maintanence. Recommend it to new buyers looking for a cheap deal.

  • A great alternative to Accord / Camry! - 2001 Mitsubishi Galant
    By -

    The V-6 is every bit as powerful as the competetion (it seems quicker from 0-50mph than Accord 4-door V-6), smooth shifting transmission. The ABS 4-wheel disc brakes are very capable, and the traction control worked well in the winter (on ice). Fuel economy is in the 23/24 in city and 26 highway. On the highway with 4 passengers and full luggage, you can still average 25 to 26mpg with the A/C on. Maintenance expenses have been very low (under $50 in 12k miles). Oil changes are at 7500 miles (normal driving conditions)! Ride quality is better than most vehicles Ive driven in its size range.

  • The always underated mitsubishi - 2001 Mitsubishi Galant
    By -

    Mitsubishi has been ahead of the styling department for years..innovative technology has been in their vehicles from the time I owned my first one in 1985. I still have that car (a starion turbo) and it is going strong. The 2001 galant has been mistaken by friends and strangers as a BMW and that suits me just fine. Excellent fuel economy and a big car ride. Abundant storage and a pass thru trunk that has come in very handy on ski trips. I have owned 5 mitsubishis as well as various other vehicles since I began driving over 20 years ago and I seem to always return. No problems and care-free driving.

  • Fun Car - 2001 Mitsubishi Galant
    By -

    We bought the LS brand new and we are not sorry we did. Great car. Growing family wanted something sporty safe and with a little more room. I would recommend a Galant.
