Japanese car brands have been very popular in Europe for a long time. They are not only known for their reliability, but also for their excellent price-quality ratio. If you have a Mitsubishi brand car for that reason, you can often drive it years ahead. However, if you have suffered damage and for that reason want a rear window replacement for your Mitsubishi, this can be an expensive affair at a brand dealer. However, there is also a simple and quick way to cheaply replace the rear window of a Mitsubishi. You can order an after market car window from us at a much lower price. You can read how this works in this article. First we will tell you more about the special and fascinating history of Mitsubishi.
In Europe, we often associate the name Mitsubishi directly with the car brand. In Japan, however, there is also the primeval company Mitsubishi Group. This conglomerate was founded as early as 1870 in Japan. Today, the Mitsubishi Group consists of around forty companies which, although independent, hold shares in each other's companies. The managers of the companies meet regularly to make mutual agreements and to make each other better and stronger. With a combined estimated turnover of no less than 540 billion dollars, it is one of the largest collaborations of companies in the world. The companies are active in the mining industry, shipbuilding, telecom, banking, oil and gas and, of course, the automotive industry.
The car department that belongs to this group is called Mitsubishi Motors and in turn has a special history. The car brand Mitsubishi originated in 1917 when, on the basis of the Fiat Tipo 3, the company put its first car on the market. However, this was not a success and the car brand Mitsubishi had difficulty competing with foreign automakers. The company therefore merged with Mitsubishi Aircraft and for the time being concentrated on the aircraft industry and the manufacture of trains.
After the Second World War, life in Japan was not easy. Crisis followed crisis, and there was also foreign occupation of the country. The country's largest companies were forced to split up into smaller companies. This so that it would be less easy for Japan to quickly return to war. Mitsubishi Aircraft's parent company, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, was forced to split into three parts. Independently of each other, the three companies started to focus more and more on the car market. This was done by collaborating with Willys and Kaiser Motors in the United States, among others. In 1964, the three companies were merged again into Mitsubishi Heavy Industries. And from there, the development of Mitsubishi Motors goes fast.
In line with the spirit of the original Mitsubishi Group, Mitsubishi Motors was not directly interested in reinventing the wheel itself. By cleverly working together with existing car companies, and for example by having rebatched versions of their Mitsubishi Galant sold in America by Chrysler such as the Dodge Colt, they were able to grow quickly. It is interesting to note that this desire for cooperation runs through the history of the Mitsubishi car brand as a leitmotiv. For example, factories were run and car parts or even whole cars were made in collaboration with, among others:
This does not mean that they could not develop good cars themselves. Among other things, the Mitsubishi Colt is an iconic car that was introduced as early as 1962 and that by now has many successful generations and is still in production. After the merger of the three companies, Mitsubishi quickly became one of the largest carmakers in the world. The upward trend that started in the sixties led to the achievement of the sales limit of 1 million cars worldwide as early as 1980. They still achieve these sales figures today.
After 1964 things did not just go well for Mitsubishi. Lack of funds and increasing losses were compensated by selling a large part of the shares to Chrysler. When this company in turn ended up in heavy weather and was incorporated by the Daimler Group, this German company also got its finger on the pulse. Today, however, Mitsubishi is part of the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance. This partnership between the three car brands came about after Nissan took over 34% of Mitsubishi's shares in 2016. This trinity does guarantee a good future for the car brands. Mitsubishi will therefore certainly become stronger as a result of this cooperation.
If you have had an accident, collision or vandalism, for example, your rear window may have fallen apart into thousands of pieces. This is because the rear window of almost all cars is made of tempered glass. This glass was heated quickly and then cooled down quickly. This makes it very strong, but it can break up into many pieces if it is hit hard. This tempered glass is used in cars in the rear and side windows, among other things. This is because it is safer than normal glass. The many small pieces can cause considerably less damage than would be the case with large shards.
However, if the rear window is broken, it is important to have a rear window replacement of your Mitsubishi quickly. If you delay replacing the rear window, you run the risk of the following things:
