Guyzzz the Galant is surely da BEST!!!no comparison
THUMBS UP Aridsoul..4 ur daily runner
The Galant Beats almost everything in its class.
AMCI TEST RESULTS SUMMARY
In the process of determining the performance capabilities of the 2004 Mitsubishi Galant GTS, the Toyota Camry XLE V6 and the Honda Accord EX V6, AMCI conducted nine tests at its private facility in Irvine, California. These are the complete results of those tests.*
ACCELERATION:
Acceleration: 0-60 mph:
The test measures a vehicle's ability to convert power and traction to performance on the road. Starting from a dead stop each car is accelerated to precisely 60 mph, at which point a computer captures total elapsed time for the exercise. AMCI's test drivers make multiple runs with each car to extract consistent maximum performance.
The 2004 Mitsubishi Galant GTS accelerates faster to 60 mph than the 2004 Honda Accord EX V6 and the 2004 Toyota Camry XLE V6.
Acceleration:20-65 mph Highway Merging:
The test simulates a highway merging situation in which maximum acceleration brings a vehicle up to highway speed in the shortest possible distance. Starting from 20 mph each car is accelerated to precisely 65 mph, at which point a computer captures total distance for the exercise. AMCI's drivers make multiple runs with each car to extract consistent maximum performance.
The 2004 Mitsubishi Galant GTS completes the 20-65 mph Highway Merging Test faster and in a shorter distance than the 2004 Toyota Camry XLE V6.
Acceleration: 40-70 mph Highway Passing:
The test simulates a two-lane highway passing situation in which maximum acceleration results in minimum exposure to oncoming traffic. Starting from 40 mph each car is accelerated to precisely 70 mph, at which point the computer captures total distance for the exercise. AMCI's test drivers make multiple runs with each car to extract consistent maximum performance.
The 2004 Mitsubishi Galant GTS completes the 40-70 mph Highway Passing Test faster and in a shorter distance than the 2004 Toyota Camry XLE V6.
BRAKING:
Braking: 70-0 mph Braking (dry pavement):
The test measures a vehicle's braking ability on dry pavement and involves numerous components, from brakes and tires to shock absorbers and suspension geometry. Braking is initiated from precisely 70 mph and continued to a dead stop, at which point a computer captures total distance for the exercise. AMCI's test drivers make multiple runs with each car to extract consistent maximum performance.
The 2004 Mitsubishi Galant GTS stops faster and in a shorter distance from 70 mph on dry pavement than the 2004 Honda Accord EX V6 and the 2004 Toyota Camry XLE V6.
Braking: 60-0 mph Braking (wet pavement):
The test measures a vehicle's braking ability on wet pavement and involves numerous components, from brakes and tires to shock absorbers and suspension geometry. Braking is initiated from precisely 60 mph and continued to a dead stop, at which point a computer captures the total distance for the exercise. AMCI's test drivers make multiple runs with each car to extract consistent maximum performance.
The 2004 Mitsubishi Galant GTS stops in a shorter distance from 60 mph on wet pavement than the 2004 Honda Accord EX V6 and the 2004 Toyota Camry XLE V6.
ACCIDENT AVOIDANCE:
Accident Avoidance: Emergency Lane Change Accident Avoidance Maneuver (dry pavement):
The test measures a vehicle's ability to swerve swiftly and controllably out of its lane in response to a suddenly seen obstacle blocking its path. After this first swerve and to complete the maneuver, the vehicle must keep its composure while returning immediately and just as nimbly to its original lane. Each vehicle must swerve to pass a fixed point on the road, and average speed is calculated from markers at the beginning and end of the maneuver. AMCI's test drivers make multiple runs with each car to extract consistent maximum performance.
The 2004 Mitsubishi Galant GTS completes the Emergency Lane Change Accident-Avoidance Maneuver at a higher speed on dry pavement than the 2004 Honda Accord EX V6 and the 2004 Toyota Camry XLE V6.
