    Mitsubishi should really start worrying about how its history was and will be, since it has canceled other vehicle classes instead of maintaining and innovating them. I don't think that all models necessarily have to last forever, because part of creating those concepts is recognizing that there is art and pure design behind something that leads you to have the best possible experience on the road, which evolves.
    They really should start making supercars, sports cars again, beef up their SUVs, continue to participate in Rally events and diversify in their intellectual prime. Their charts just show a huge waste of time due to a huge lack of confidence (since they were pretty much sold to the US) and that's not deserved by a brand that created such amazing cars.
    I really miss the Lancer and the Eclipse. Those two were a very deep part of my childhood. Sometimes I wonder how those models would have evolved or how their names and forms would have changed.

    There is a big part of the equation you did not look at or mention in your video: In 2002 Mitsubishi took a risk by offering 0% financing on almost all new vehicles. This gamble sent new buyers to the brand and resulted in some chart-topping success for Mitsubishi. It also left the company in a lot of debt and was ultimately not sustainable. Buyers were willing to pick up a 2002 Galant for $5000 less than an Accord if they also got 0% financing and some pretty substantial rebates. The problem was that Mitsubishi was selling a lot of cars this way but not actually turning much of a profit. As these programs ended, it turned out that buyers would simply rather go with the Accord.
    You also left out the huge lineage of SUVs Mitsubishi had--the Montero and Montero Sport. And that Mitsubishi was one of the pioneers of All Wheel Drive systems, and some would argue, was the inventor of AWD (later selling the technology to competitors).

    I know this is an old video but I think another aspect keeping them alive is their strategic placement of dealers. My closest small city has alot of different brand dealers, including 1 Mitsubishi dealer. It's the smallest dealer around, but it's very close to a large hub area with lots of traffic. I see more mirage's there than anywhere else because they know the demographic. They know who and where the ideal customers are. And when your cars aren't all the exiting, I think that's pretty important
