The Mitsubishi 380 was a full-size sedan produced by the Japanese automaker Mitsubishi Motors from 2005 to 2008. It was designed and manufactured in Australia, marking the company's return to the large car market after the discontinuation of the Magna in 2003. The 380 aimed to compete with established rivals such as the Toyota Camry, Honda Accord, and Ford Falcon, emphasizing spaciousness, comfort, and a focus on family-oriented features. Powered by a 3.8-liter V6 engine paired with a 5-speed automatic transmission, the 380 offered a balance of performance and fuel efficiency for its time. It was available in three trim levels: ES, LS, and VR-X, each offering distinct interior and exterior styling. The 380 featured a range of standard amenities including power windows and mirrors, air conditioning, and a CD player. Higher trim levels added features such as leather upholstery, satellite navigation, and a sunroof.

Despite its ambitions, the Mitsubishi 380 struggled to gain traction in the competitive Australian market. Its sales figures remained underwhelming throughout its production run, ultimately leading to its discontinuation in 2008. Several factors contributed to its lack of success including a design perceived as somewhat bland compared to its rivals, a higher price point than expected, and a reputation for reliability issues. These factors, coupled with the increasing popularity of SUVs and smaller, more fuel-efficient vehicles, led to the 380's demise. While the 380 may not have achieved the commercial success it aimed for, it remains an interesting chapter in Mitsubishi's history, representing a bold attempt to re-enter the large sedan market with a modern and technologically advanced vehicle. Its legacy lies in the lessons learned about market trends and the importance of striking the right balance between features, price, and brand perception.
