Mitsubishi Colt CZT

The surprising thing is that this engine, after going through our dynamometer has been off the hook with maximum power, nothing more and nothing less, 172 HP and torque of 26.4 MKG. This is clear evidence that there is an engine with that joke, because their data are very serious. The way in which the delivery is also very spectacular, very much in the true lovers of driving dynamics. Up to 2,500 rpm, when the turbo appears, may seem lazy, especially if we are used to the behavior of Diesel, however, from this point until almost the delivery of cutting force is constant and overwhelming. By wearing something "alive", something that is not complicated by the ease with climbing turns, this engine will not disappoint us at any time, not miss one iota of power when step on the right pedal. The performance figures attest to the good performance of this engine. It accelerates from 0-100 km / h in 8 seconds, reaches kilometer from standstill in 28.3 and its top speed is estimated at 210 km / h. But here it is not, because the measurements obtained our Technical Center are very popular, especially the recoveries of 80 to 120 km / h in fourth and fifth gear, which fall in nine seconds and is second only among its competitors, the Mini Cooper S, which of course, weighs less and has a more powerful engine. But let the feelings, something that no figure can express. Turn the ignition key and the engine reveals that this is a true sports model: sounds harsh, threatening and whispers that we seem to want to be exprimamos. Whispered and done. We moved and mechanics starts turbocharged clear character. As we said is that there has not low, but in the medium and high delivery system is like Muhammad Ali hook: is overwhelming and leaves you breathless. You step on and step on the accelerator and keep noticing that the engine has a reservation, a final "squeeze" that allows you to upload up to 6,500 rpm. The five-speed Get rag change generally, is well staged, as you would expect in a car of this kind, but, yes, we miss sixth for driving on motorways and allow us to reduce the noise level and fuel consumption . Noise is almost always a section where we like to stop and when analyzing a vehicle with sporting dyes. This engine sounds, sounds pretty, but in a very addictive. The problem is that it is a sound that can be tiresome for regular driver, while the sporadic, like us, you love. What is certain is that the engine noise is not the best accompaniment when making long trips, so that in the absence of a better solution, you can choose to increase the volume of the radio or our conversation. Fuel consumption is not an exaggeration if we care forms. Keep in mind that we have two allies in this regard: a small mechanical displacement (only 1.5 liters) and use turbo. Thus, consumption per 100 km in the combined cycle, according to our measurements, amounted to 8.7 liters, which is not much if you compare it with the power level at which we move. Yes, we like to just step on the gas, these figures rise significantly, averaging 14-15 liters in sporty driving.
