Mitsubishi Outlander.
 Seventy
years after its seminal PX33 4-wheel-drive, Mitsubishi hopes to
demonstrate its expertise in this area in Paris through what it
describes as an up-to-the minute, renewed SUV line-up aimed at
important sectors of the growing SUV market.
With its Europe-only Mount Fuji grille, the 4,64m-long
Outlander-Concept is a further showcase of Mitsubishi's strong
visual identity, while its wide stance, muscular fenders and
sharp lines point to what the company describes as its dynamic
abilities. There's also a kicked-up window line, piercing
headlamps and 20-inch wheels.
The Outlander-Concept is powered by a derivative of the
Volkswagen-supplied 1103kW 2l diesel turbo-charged and
intercooler, DOHC, 16-valve diesel motor, mated to a six-speed
manual transmission. The model is said to have been designed as
a stylish living space with features to match, including a 650W
9-speaker Rockford Fosgate premium audio system, plus a clever
hide-and seat third row for 5+2 accommodation.
The concept is powered by a Volkswagen-supplied, two-litre
TDI turbodiesel with intercooler, producing an estimated 103kW
and mated to a six-speed manual gearbox.
