'06 Mitsubishi Endeavor

The 2006 Mitsubishi Endeavor perpetuates the reputation of the Endeavor range of crossover SUVs as top-line vehicles of the class in the market. The 2006 model year gets several improvisations in the exterior and the introduction of a new edition with reduced dimensions. The XLS trim level is no longer available in the 2006 models of the Endeavor.

The standard features of the powertrain included in the 2006 Mitsubishi Endeavor remain nearly the same as the 2005 model year. A V6 engine generates 225 horsepower with manual transmission in both four-wheel and rear-wheel drive models.

Updates in the exterior of the 2006 Mitsubishi Endeavor include a new grille with chrome finish and a newly-styled rear-side bumper. The liftgate is retained and an ABS is a standard feature. An anti-skid system is an available option in the all-wheel drive models. For owners seeking entertainment, a DVD entertainment package is an option that is definitely worth considering.

'05 Mitsubishi Endeavor

A question that many buyers ask and the 2005 Mitsubishi Endeavor answers aptly is: why should one opt for an SUV that claims to be a “car-type” one? This answer is the simple fact that not every buyer is a single individual looking for a vehicle to handle rough off-road terrains or a formal sedan with more comfort and less luggage space. A crossover SUV has always been recognized as the perfect blend of comfort, luxury and ruggedness to suit multiple purposes – especially family rides.

With both front-wheel and all-wheel drive modes available, the 2005 Endeavor is equipped with a V6 engine thundering up 225 horsepower and a corresponding torque of 255lb-ft. The transmission is manual. Being a crossover
SUV, the vehicle has a good mileage of 22mpg on highways.

Several features of the 2005 Mitsubishi Endeavor make it the top choice for buyers in the automotive market. The liftgate has a glass that can be separately opened. Traction control is included along with the ABS and an anti-skid mechanism. Multiple airbags are provided as safety features.
