The Lancer Prototype-S was unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in March, and there's no doubt it was the star of the show.
Following the successful launch of the iconic Lancer Evolution X, Mitsubishi has once again whetted the appetites of enthusiastic drivers everywhere with this stunning new model.
The production model of this car is planned to feature a dual valve, variable valve timing two litre turbo engine, producing 240PS. This will be mated to Mitsubishi's outstanding new 6 speed Twin Clutch Sports Shift Transmission, which has already received critical acclaim in the new Lancer Evolution X. The TC-SST transmission allows the driver to select between manual mode using a paddle shift mechanism, semi-auto mode, or full auto mode. It also comes with two driving modes; normal and sport to cover every type of desired driving style.
The performance that this engine and transmission combination produces is transferred to the road via the legendary Mitsubishi four wheel drive system, incorporating Active Yaw Control and an Active Centre Differential.
There is no doubt that this is going to be the hottest hot hatch around.

16 valve 4 cylinder engine. Concept-cX’s green credentials also include the
use of eco-friendly "Green Plastics", produced from plant resins, in the interior
trim.
Concept-cX features Mitsubishi’s Twin Clutch SST technology offering an automated
manual transmission combining the economy and dynamic driving of a manual transmission
with the convenience of an automatic gearbox. Its on road abilities are further
enhanced by Mitsubishi’s sophisticated AWC (All Wheel Control) 4WD system.

Driving pleasure, safety, and environment-friendliness are the goals for the near
future that Mitsubishi Motors strives for as a manufacturer. i-EV is a research
vehicle filled with Mitsubishi Motors’ innovative technologies including high-capacity
lithium-ion batteries and a high performance compact motor to name but a few.
In conjunction with power companies, Mitsubishi Motors has been conducting joint
research programs and fleet monitoring tests using the i-EV , collecting field test
data to improve the EV for future commercial application.
Based in the i’s rear-midship layout platform, i-EV replaces the conventional
engine and fuel tank with a lithium-ion battery system, motor, inverter and other
EV components. i-EV ensures ample cabin space for up to 4 passengers, along with
a good size luggage compartment in the rear. The installation of batteries under
the floor lowers the centre of gravity, providing a more stable and dynamic drive.
The target range with a single charge was 160km for fleet test vehicles in 2007.
i-EV can be charged in several different ways: the Household Charger System for
charging at home or a parking lot and the Quick Charger System for speedy charging.
The Household Charger System will charge the i-EV from either a 100V or 200V ordinary
plug located on the right side of the vehicle. Using less expensive midnight power,
i-EV can be charged economically in as little as 7 hours on a 200V system.
With the Quick Charger System, i-EV could be charged via a Quick Charger plug located
on the left side of the vehicle. Using a 3-phase 200V 50kW Quick Charger System,
i-EV could be charged to 80% peak in as little as 30 minutes.
