The Mitsubishi Galant is a midsize car aimed at the likes of the Ford Fusion and Toyota Camry. While the first Galant was a compact car, the latest model is quite sizable. Now in its ninth generation, the sedan is offered in ES and Sport guise.

The Galant was revised for the 2009 model year and onward. While the Galant's new design isn't revolutionary, it does give the car a fresher look.

Most notably, the 2009 Galant does away with the old car's split-nose front grille. A new lower intake is flanked by integrated fog lights. The hood is also sporting a new look, now featuring sharp creases.

Out back, the Galant relieves new taillights, as well as newly sculpted rear fenders.

Mitsubishi says the Galant's interior has also been revised, but the only real noticeable change is a new shift gate.

For 2009, the Galant will be available in three flavors -- four-cylinder ES, four-cylinder Sport, and V6 Sport.

Both four-cylinder models receive motivation via a 160 horsepower 2.4-liter MIVEC four-cylinder - mated to a four-speed automatic transmission - while the up-level V6 uses a 230 horsepower 3.8-liter V6.

The Sport models feature a standard power sunroof and heated front seats.

All models come standard with dual-stage front air bags, front passenger occupant sensors, side curtain air bags, and seat-mounted side-impact air bags.

Optional features include a Rockford premium audio system, Sirius satellite radio, an alarm system, a rear spoiler, and a sportier steering wheel with audio controls.
