1992 Mitsubishi 3000 GT: the full review
The 1992 3000 GT pairs a 3.0 L six-cylinder engine with front-wheel drive and a four-speed automatic. Its listed 18 MPG combined and $4,550 annual fuel cost are central to weighing fuel use.
Overview
The 1992 Mitsubishi 3000 GT is listed as a gasoline-powered car with a 3.0 L six-cylinder engine, a four-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. Its EPA class is Subcompact Cars. The official fuel-economy figures are 16 MPG city, 22 MPG highway and 18 MPG combined.
The EPA lists annual fuel cost at $4,550 and tailpipe carbon dioxide emissions at 493.72 grams per mile. Those figures provide useful reference points when comparing fuel use and operating costs, though the annual cost is the listed EPA estimate rather than an individual driver's bill.
Key features
Powertrain and layout
The listed configuration pairs a 3.0 L six-cylinder gasoline engine with a four-speed automatic and front-wheel drive. These specifications identify the vehicle's basic drivetrain without implying additional equipment or performance details.
Fuel economy and emissions
At 16 MPG in city driving and 22 MPG on the highway, the combined rating is 18 MPG. The city figure is lower than the highway figure, while the combined number offers one simple basis for comparing the listed fuel economy with other vehicles. Tailpipe CO2 is recorded at 493.72 g/mi.
Who it's for
This 3000 GT listing is most useful to buyers who want to compare a gasoline car's stated fuel economy, drivetrain and EPA annual fuel-cost estimate. Its 18 MPG combined rating and $4,550 annual fuel cost make fuel consumption an important point to weigh in a running-cost comparison. The available figures do not establish maintenance costs, insurance costs or a particular owner's actual fuel spending.
For someone comparing vehicles by powertrain layout, the listing also makes the front-wheel-drive configuration and automatic transmission explicit. EV shoppers can use the gasoline fuel type as a clear distinction when weighing it against electric options, but the facts here do not provide an electric range or charging information.
