It Took Them A Bit Lot Longer Than Most

It Took Mitsubishi 33 Years To Sell 5 Million Vehicles In The U.S.

While 5 million sales in the US market is a number worth celebrating, the fact that Mitsubishi needed more than 33 years to achieve this milestone, makes it less impressive.

It all started back in 1982 when the Mitsubishi brand was introduced in America, where it offered three models, the Tredia, the Cordia and the Starion sedans, but over the years, Mitsubishi Motors North America (MMNA) has also introduced popular rides such as the 3000GT, Eclipse, Montero, Galant and the soon-to-be-axed, Lancer Evolution.

MMNA states that its vehicle sales increased 23 percent over the same period in 2014, and the company has recently reported its 21st consecutive month of year-over-year sales, which, combined with the new milestone, made the company's officials happy.
