Mitsubishi - Colt (2009)
When you think of a compact that blends reliability, maneuverability, and a touch of nostalgia, the Mitsubishi Colt 2009 instantly comes to mind. While the exact Mitsubishi Colt price varies across regions and trim levels, the 2009 model has carved out a reputation for being an economical choice for urban drivers. Car buyers curious about the Mitsubishi Colt 2009 price often wonder exactly what to expect in terms of value and maintenance, especially when looking at the used Mitsubishi Colt price landscape.

Because the Colt is a lean, well‑engineered platform, its numbers are straightforward. When evaluating the Mitsubishi Colt price today, the first place to start is the condition of the vehicle: mileage, service history, and overall wear. A used Mitsubishi Colt price will depend heavily on these variables, but even at its upper range, it remains very competitive compared to peer models such as the Ford Fiesta or the Honda Fit.
Depreciation Insight: What is a 2009 Mitsubishi Colt Worth Over Time?
Cars lose value the moment they're driven off the lot. The main factors affecting depreciation include brand perception, mileage, condition, and the introduction of newer models. For the 2009 Colt, industry data suggests a typical depreciation curve roughly as follows:
- First year: 15‑20% drop from the original price
- First 3 years: Approximately 30‑35% total depreciation
- After 5 years: Around 45‑50% of the original value remains
- At 10 years: Roughly 60‑65% of initial value lost, though well‑maintained examples may fetch 30‑35% of the original price
When you ask what is a 2009 Mitsubishi Colt worth, the short answer is that a model with average mileage (say 100,000 km) maintained in good condition can command anywhere from $2,000 to $4,000 in a market like the U.S. or a comparable range in European countries. In Australia, the price might sit in the $3,500–$5,200 bracket, reflecting local demand and tax structures.
As a quick comparison, a 2009 Ford Fiesta exposed to similar mileage may fetch a comparable price, but the Colt often enjoys slightly lower maintenance costs due to its simpler engine design. On the other hand, a Toyota Corolla 2009, though slightly larger and more powerful, tends to depreciate more slowly, resulting in a higher resale price at the same mileage.
Comparative Context: How Does the Colt Hold Up?
When you examine the Mitsubishi Colt price against contemporaries, a few clear patterns emerge:
- Compact Pocket‑filler: Offers slim dimensions, making it ideal for congested city streets.
- Uncomplicated Features: A modest feature list keeps the cost down but still delivers the essentials.
- Reliability: While not as extensively tested as Japanese imports, the Colt’s design has proven durable in markets with harsher climates.
- Dealer Incentives: Due to its lower production volume, dealers sometimes offer tighter financing deals, making the Mitsubishi Colt depreciation an attractive point for budget buyers.
Compared to the European squad of the Fiat 500 or the Mini Cooper, the Colt follows a straightforward performance profile: less horsepower, but
