Mitsubishi GalEA is a design study that uses styling elements of the recent Mitsubishi 'jet-fighter' design language. It was born to revive the 1997 Galant EA as a four-door coupé. The EA inspired the 'jet-fighter' design language and now it returns as a sportcoupé. At the front you can recognise some details that were borrowed from the Mitsubishi Concept RA but the other parts of the body have an individual new styling with waving lines which have already been introduced on the Mitsubishi Concept CS.
The wheelbase and the proportions of the body also hint a front engine-rear wheel drive layout.
In the inside you can see premium materials and four individual seats. The dashboard has clear and elegant styling and puts the driver in the centre.
About the name: it refers to the Galant EA but also has another meaning.
A galea was a Roman soldier's helmet. Some gladiators, myrmillonis, also wore a bronze galea with a face mask and a decoration, often a fish on its crest.
