The Dodge Colt was built with identical features to the Plymouth Champ and Plymouth Colt. All of them were subcompact cars sold by Dodge and Plymouth starting from 1970 down to 1994. The Neon replaced the Colts after their downfall. Actually, the Colts were captive imports from Mitsubishi Motors and originally were twins to the Mitsubishi Galant prior to its shift to the Mitsubishi Mirage in 1979. From 1974, the Plymouth Cricket nameplate was used on Galants in Canada. This was after the Chrysler pulled the plug on the unhappy Hillam Avenger-based model sourced from United Kingdom. On the other hand, the Plymouth Arrow was made available from 1976 to 1980 as a re-badged version of the Mitsubishi Lancer Celeste. The Dodge Colt and Plymouth Champ nameplate applied to the front wheel drive Mitsubishi Mirage imports into North America. The Eagle Summit participated in the collection of nameplates describing a Mitsubishi Mirage in 1989 as did the Colt Vista designation for tall wagon versions based on the Mitsubishi RVR in 1984. Shortly, the Colt minivans took over as Dodge/Plymouth’s entry level minivans from the Dodge Caravan and Plymouth Voyager. As a result of the Dodge Omni and Plymouth Horizon’s downfall, the Colt remained the sole subcompact in the Dodge and Plymouth lineups. The Colt and other similar models were used in rallying, both in the United States and abroad. Of these variants, the Colt was the most utilized. In fact, it appeared in events through the 1970s and 1980s. In the first ever Sno*Drift rally in 1973, the Colt was run to a third place finish. It repeated the feat the year following as well as third time in 1982.
