The Dodge Colt, and similar Plymouth Champ and Plymouth Colt, were compact cars sold by Dodge and Plymouth in the 1970s. They were captive imports from Mitsubishi Motors and, initially, were twins of the Mitsubishi Galant, before shifting to the Mitsubishi Lancer in 1977.
The Plymouth Cricket nameplate was used on Galants from 1974 in Canada, after Chrysler pulled the plug on the unhappy Hillman Avenger-based model sourced from the UK.
The Plymouth Arrow was offered from 1976, a badge-engineered version of the Mitsubishi Lancer Celeste.
From 1979, the Dodge Colt and Plymouth Champ nameplates applied to the front-wheel-drive Mitsubishi Mirage imports into North America.
In the 1980s, the Eagle Summit joined the array of nameplates describing a Mitsubishi Lancer, as did the Vista designation for tall wagon versions based on the Mitsubishi RVR or Space Runner.
The last Colt Turbo was on Car and Driver magazine's Ten Best list for 1989.
