Used 1994 Mitsubishi Expo Hatchback Consumer Reviews
takes a lickin', keeps on tickin'
This car has been very reliable and versatile - cargo room with seats folded down is amazing. Mileage is still 19/27 even after 172,000 miles. Engine is still running strong. The car has needed normal maintenance (fluids, brakes, tires, tune-ups, front struts, axles, catalytic converter). Unusual repairs were a bad distributor and a leak in the gas tank. Transmission still shifts smoothly. Car does seem to go through brakes, and the rotors tend to warp. The Expo handles well, is very easy to park, and the 4 cylinder engine is adequate, straining only when fully loaded and going uphill with the AC on. This has been a great car for a large family with small kids. Still a daily driver.
Loved this car
I've loved my Expo for its flexibility - 7 seats, or large capacity. Its seats folded flat both forward and back. Plus it was fun to drive.
Dependable Mitsubishi Expo
The Expo has proven itself as a very fun, dependable, and useful. Whether your after groceries or going on a vacation, the Expo really has something for you. The luggage rack and tie downs are great for hauling extra luggage, lumber, or the family canoe. The engine and transmission are very reliable. Under the hood sits a peppy 4 cylinder 2.4 liter engine, with enough power to get the job done, while not guzzling gas. The Expo is classified as a sport wagon, but really has many characteristics of a mini-van, without the price tag, and with better gas mileage. If your looking for a dependable and versatile used vehicle, then the Expo is your style!
I miss my Expo!
I recently sold my beloved 1994 Expo to my younger brother and I regret my decision. I loved that car. I have a Ford Windstar right now and it is simply too big for me. I loved the seven seats and small size of my Expo. I didn't do any repairs other than maintainence to it the five years I had it. Awesome vehicle. Does anyone have one for sale? I want another one or a new one just like it!
1994 Expo Review
As our family grew we were in the market for an economical, reliable car that was smaller and more efficient than the run of the mill mini-van. Our 94 expo fit the bill perfectly. With the 2.6l, 4cyl and 5-speed, we got a 27 mpg car that fit in our garage with room to spare. Almost 9 yrs later with no repairs other than brakes, batteries, tires, and wiper blades, we finally traded it in. Our only regret is that there is really nothing like it currently in the US market that we can replace it with.
