The first [[Australia]]n-built Sigmas were released in October 1977 to replace the outgoing GD series [[Mitsubishi Galant|Galant]] and were initially badged as Chryslers. The GE series Sigma was the first to introduce the Australian market to the ''[[Mitsubishi Astron engine|'Astron']]'' engine range; the 1.6 L ''[[Mitsubishi Saturn engine|'Saturn']]'' engine was also available in the base model Sigma Galant. The mid-range model was the Sigma GL and came standard with the 'Astron' (1.85 L or 2.0 L) and 4-speed [[manual transmission|manual]]. The top-line model was the Sigma SE and was initially only available with the 'Astron 2000' with 3-speed [[automatic transmission|automatic]]. It had equipment levels never heard of at the time including reclining rear seats. | The first [[Australia]]n-built Sigmas were released in October 1977 to replace the outgoing GD series [[Mitsubishi Galant|Galant]] and were initially badged as Chryslers.

Released in May 1980, the GH series saw a considerable facelift on both front and rear ends. Interestingly, while it was only introduced to Australia in 1980, the facelift actually appeared on the Japanese home market Galant models and on [[New Zealand]] assembled Mitsubishi Sigma models in 1979. | Released in May 1980, the GH series saw a considerable facelift on both front and rear ends.
