The Colt VII vehicle generation was manufactured by Mitsubishi Motors from 2023 to present and offered in hatchback body configurations.
The seventh-generation Mitsubishi Colt was unveiled in June 2023 for European markets. Produced under the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance on the CMF-B architecture, it is a rebadged derivative of the fifth-generation Renault Clio. It features a customized front grille incorporating Dynamic Shield accents and updated branding. Engineering of the Colt VII (factory code VII) emphasized high structural rigidity, aerodynamic efficiency, and optimized interior spatial packaging. Built with reinforced body structures utilizing high-tensile steel alloys, the platform delivered reduced curb weight alongside improved occupant crash protection. The vehicle was distributed globally in multiple configuration packages designed to satisfy diverse market demands and regional regulatory specifications.

The cabin includes digital driver displays and a central vertical infotainment touchscreen. The powertrain lineup incorporated efficient engine families paired with robust manual, automatic, or continuously variable transmissions depending on trim selection. Drivetrain engineering integrated advanced suspension tuning and traction management systems. Periodic mid-cycle cosmetic and technical updates refreshed front-end aesthetics, lighting technology, and cabin infotainment features, maintaining competitive positioning across international consumer segments throughout its production lifespan.
