Japan Used Mitsubishi Pistachio for Sale

The Mitsubishi Pistachio is a three-door hatchback introduced by Mitsubishi Motors Corporation in December 1999. It was based on the platform of Mitsubishi's Minica kei car.

It was powered by a 4A31 1094 cc DOHC 16v engine capable of 54 kW (73 PS; 72 hp) at 6000 rpm and 100 N⋅m (74 lb⋅ft) of torque at 4000 rpm, the Pistachio was designed to maximize fuel economy and minimize emissions. It had a 700 kg (1,543 lb) kerb weight, slim 135/80R13 tyres, electric power steering, lightweight stainless steel exhaust manifold, lightweight aluminium wheels, aluminium hood, thin-gauge glass, and an aluminium seatback. Under the hood, it utilized both gasoline direct injection (GDI) and Automatic Stop-Go (ASG), a system which turns off the engine while the vehicle is stationary and automatically restarts it when the clutch is depressed. The Pistachio recorded fuel consumption of 3.33 l/100 km (84.8 mpg‑imp; 70.6 mpg‑US), unprecedented for an exclusively gasoline-powered vehicle.
