2009 Mitsubishi Galant Fortis Ralliart
Launched in August 2007 Mitsubishi Galant Fortis (known as Mitsubishi Lancer outside Japan) was MMC’s first new sedan model in seven years. It has been well received by customers looking principally for everyday utility plus a taste of sporty performance, while the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X finds favor with those drivers looking to enjoy a serious sport driving experience, participation in motorsport events included. The new Mitsubishi Galant Fortis Ralliart strikes an excellent balance between everyday driving comfort and fun-to-drive dynamic performance and as such will meet the needs and demands of a wide spectrum of customers.
Mitsubishi Galant Fortis Ralliart is fitted with Mitsubishi’s Twin Clutch SST (Sport Shift Transmission) automated manual transmission that allows the driver both the fun and economy of a manual gearbox plus the convenience and comfort of an automatic transmission. The Twin Clutch SST used on the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X has been modified for Mitsubishi Galant Fortis Ralliart with different ratios for 5th and 6th gears to give improved fuel economy in high-speed cruising on longer trips.
The driver has the choice of two automated shifting modes: NORMAL for maximum fuel economy and comfort in everyday driving; and SPORT with shift characteristics best suited to sportier performance.
Mitsubishi Galant Fortis Ralliart uses a full-time 4WD system comprising a front helical limited slip differential, an Active Center Differential and a mechanical rear LSD. These components as well as Active Stability Control and Anti-lock Braking are all electronically and integrally managed by Mitsubishi’s vehicle dynamics control system to deliver an optimum balance between sure-footed traction and steering feel, cornering and braking performance.
The driver can select between three ACD modes: TARMAC for dry paved surfaces; GRAVEL for wet tarmac or loose unmade surfaces; and SNOW for snow-covered surfaces.
