Mitsubishi Used Cars – The Endeavor
YouPaidWhat-used cars
Used cars like the Mitsubishi Endeavor is a mid-size SUV that was brought into the fold back in 2004. It has been said most Canadian’s have heard of the Mitsubishi motor corporation but not of their Endeavor model or some of their other brands as well. Being in a very competitive market space with other vehicles like the Toyota Highlander and the Honda Pilot, it can be hard to get the word out that the Endeavor is actually cheaper than and as durable as those SUV’s are. My research will be on the Mitsubishi Endeavor as a used vehicle to look at.
The 2004 Endeavor is a car-type mid-size SUV that seats five passengers. There are three models to choose from, the LS, XLS and the limit model. All vehicles come in either two-wheel drive or all-wheel drive and are not meant for any serious off roading. The two-wheel drive LS model has an option for ABS brakes but the XLS and the Limited model comes standard with it. Traction control is standard in the two-wheel drive XLS and Limited models. Traction control and antiskid systems are an option with all-wheel drive limited models. Front side air-bags are standard with the XLS and Limited models, but are not with the LS model. There is also an option for a rear DVD entertainment system for the XLS and Limited models.
There are a couple of fuel statistics from the years 2004 to 2007 for the Mitsubishi Endeavor. In 2004 the Endeavor had a fuel rating of 13.7-litres, per 100km, for city driving and 9.4-litres, per 100km, for highway driving. In 2007 the Endeavor had a fuel rating of 14-litres, per 100km, for city driving and 10.1-litres, per 100km or highway driving.
There is only one engine that the Mitsubishi Endeavor used from 2004 to 2007. The Endeavor used a V6, 3.8-litre engine that produced 215 horsepower, with 250 pounds per-feet of torque.
Let’s take a look at the pros and cons of the Mitsubishi Endeavor as a used vehicle:
1- It was given a “good rating” as a used vehicle to own, by a leading online consumer watchdog.
2- There are complaints of water leaking into the interior because of a blocked A/C unit that allows water to fill up behind the dash board.
3- The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gave it a four star rating for a frontal passenger crash test done to it.
I hope this information helps when looking at the Mitsubishi Endeavor as your next used vehicle.
