April 1987
- June 1989
The first facelift to the
Magna came with the TN Mitsubishi Magna, introduced in April
1987 replacing the TM model. The TN model introduced the sporty
Elanté sedan in June 1988 and the first Mitsubishi
Magna wagon was introduced in June 1987.
The model brought cosmetic changes with a revised rear end
(number plated moved to the bar and a red facia between the
taillights) and 2 distinct grilles (the GLX, Executive and
Elante all had a mailbox grille while the SE and Elite had
a fancy bar grille).
The
model also introduced the EFI engine (ECI Multi Astron II)
to be sold alongside the existing Astron II carburettor model..
Manual and Auto were avaliable in GLX, SE and Elante models
while Executive and Elite were Auto only. About 60% of TN
models were the Executive model. The TN was replaced by the
TP Magna model in June 1987.
