1980 Dodge Colt Navigation
The Dodge Colt was manufactured by Mitsubishi Motors and marketed by Dodge from 1971 through 1994. Other variants were called the Mitsubishi Colt Galant, the Mitsubishi Galant, Plymouth Cricket, Plymouth Colt, and the Plymouth Champ. Initially, the Colt was a re-badged variant of the Galant and Lancer families, later shedding its rear-wheel drive platform for the front-wheel drive setup of the Mitsubishi Mirage in 1979. For 1980, there were 83,711 examples sold in the United States. The Dodge Colt and Plymouth Champ nameplates were applied to the front-wheel-drive Mitsubishi Mirage imports into North America. Power was from a 70 horsepower Mitsubishi Orion 4G33 1.4-liter overhead-cam, four-cylinder engine. The engine was given the highest United States Environmental Protection Agency fuel economy rating in its debut year. This engine was joined by the 1.6-liter 4G32 Saturn engine (80 hp) at the end of the year.
