At first glance, the new Mitsubishi Colt CZC coupe-cabriolet reminded me alot of the Peugeot 206CC. Coupe and cabriolet all in one car. The Colt CZC coupe-cabriolet was jointly engineered by Mitsubishi Motors Corporation, Mitsubishi Design Europe and Pininfarina S.p.A.
The 2+2 seater Mitsubishi Colt CZC is built off the normal Colt hatchback platform. The bodyshell is reinforced over the normal Colt hatch and coupe because of the abscence of a structural roof.
2 differnet engine options are proposed to be offered. One is a 1.5 MIVEC turbocharged engine that delivers 150ps, allowing the car to go from 0-100km/h in 8.4 seconds and hit a top speed of 202km/h. The other is a normally aspirated 109ps 1.5 litre engine.
The Mitsubishi Colt CZC will be produced at NedCar’s plant in The Netherlands. NedCar used to be the plant that produced Mitsubishi-Volvo joint venture platform vehicles, a partnership that has since failed. NedCar also makes the smart forfour.

yummy, hope they will bring it to Malaysia. 1.5 pumping out 150hp, wow!!!!!
Not a good choice for us, quite enough of bird s*** around, haha…
The convertable roof built from same material of the car chassis, amazing!
But feel weird of its too short rear part. The rear wheel almost touching to its buttock liao…
looks like a FAT n BOLD version of Pg 206cc.
i don't like it!
Lovely
Unique design and excellent 'coupe-cabriolet' combination, but I think I just stick to normal Mistubishi Colt now available in the local market. Cabriolet models have failed to chart good sales in Malaysia probably because of geographical factor plus 'monotonous' taste and preference of the people here. Like the rims..
Fugly!..
im goin to hate mitsubishi now.
because they seem have no ida on what a good car is.
do anyone notice it's similiar to the peugot 206 cabriolete? .
Nampak pelik bahagian depan , macam van estima pula.
JV with volvo also failed?
so that's mean not jv with proton = proton caused it failed.. But they pissoff… ???
no wonder they near bancrupt..
Alamak, the bonnet too short!!!!!!
Even the Peugeot 206 cabrio looks better.
But these tiny cabrios (good thing everyone's adapting metal-folding top rather than canvas) are alittle too impractical. And uhm, for men? No thanks..
looks kinda kontot to me,
I like the performance part of the car … hmm… 1.5l turbo-charged for 150horses… nice – as long as the handling can keep up that is…
Hmmm… Looks Weird…
well for me… maybe not for others… I mean… It's funny until they can put this car in a circus… But the engines… Nicely done…
I wish they would sell this car in the USA. I think it would sell well. People are tired of gas prices and want a good mileage vehicle.
