This version of the Galant is a sound car. The four-cylinder engine delivers quick acceleration and decent fuel economy, but is very noisy under acceleration. The stiff ride transmits impacts to the passengers, and the wide, 43-foot turning circle hampers maneuverability. Quality of the interior materials and rear-seat room are on par with that of competitors. Overall, this is a middle-of-the-pack sedan, but it grew dated over its long shelf life. Stability control was made standard in 2010.
