A quick look at Mitsubishi's refreshed midsize sedan
Powertrain
Base model 2009 Galants are powered by a 162-horsepower 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine. The Ralliart model uses a punchy 258-horsepower, 3.8-liter V-6 engine coupled to a five-speed Sportronic automatic with manual shift capability (the automatic is pretty invisible in its shift action). The big V-6 has plenty of smooth power for a sedan of this size, but it's less growly than in other Mitsubishis . Fuel economy ranges from 20 mpg city, 27 highway with the four-cylinder versions to 17/25 mpg with the V-6.
