Mitsubishi insurance quotes and insurance groups

Insurance group ratings take into account performance, security, damage and parts costs, new car values, availability of body shells and repair costs and times. What you'll typically find is that cars in lower insurance groups cost less to insure, whilst cars in higher insurance groups attract a higher premium - usually because they are high performance models or have high repair or replacement costs.

Mitsubishi’s heritage is one of innovation, creating Japan’s first production vehicle in 1917. Mitsubishi’s innovation continued over the next two decades with the development of Japan’s first diesel engine and the production of its first four wheel drive passenger car, a development that contributed so significantly to Mitsubishi’s prominence in World Rally today.

Mitsubishi had its first major commercial success in 1969 with the launch of the Mitsubishi Galant, a truly innovative car that incorporated the very latest automotive technology. In 1973 Mitsubishi launched (the now flagship) Mitsubishi Lancer and together the Galant and Lancer built Mitsubishi a strong reputation of producing reliable, high performance cars. By the end of the 1970s Mitsubishi were enjoying a string of accolades for their vehicles worldwide including South Africa’s 1977 Car of the Year (Galant) and USA’s 1979 Pickup of the Year (LS200).

Today the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution is in its 10th generation having been first unveiled at the 2007 North American International Auto Show.
