Mitsubishi has an exceptional 5-passenger sedan in the value-priced, luxury-laden 2012 Galant.

Available in two distinct iterations -- the affordable, content-rich Galant ES and the high-flying Galant SE with its impressive included amenities package -- this sedan appeals to savvy, cost-conscious consumers.

Every 2012 Mitsubishi Galant is powered by a 2.4-liter 4-cylinder engine rated at 160 horsepower with a stout 157 lb.-ft. of torque. A fixture of the highly efficient yet eager Galant powertrain is a smooth-shifting 4-speed Sportronic automatic transmission that allows the enthusiast driver to quickly toggle up and down through the gears if they so choose.

Inside, there's a stylish instrument panel and unique center console that features a large 7-inch touch-screen display monitor for the DVD-based navigation system and the convenient backup camera system located at the top of the dashboard. Rich interior details include subtle silver-colored trim accents across the top of the dashboard and rimming the gauge faces in the instrument cluster.

With its tall, chiseled beltline and sweeping, gently arching roofline, the 2012 Galant possesses an exterior shape, along with its eye-catching "cat's eye" angular taillight design, racy mesh grille and unique squared-off headlight design, to make the 2012 Galant an uncommon ride in an otherwise humdrum vehicle segment.
