The New Mitsubishi L200 Model

The New Mitsubishi L200 is one in a million when it comes to a pick up. This car is made like a pick up, but it can be transformed into a car. On the road, no one could tell the difference between a regular car and this pickup truck. The only difference was the style of it. It looks like a "raging" bull. It has the appearance of being a very strong and durable pick up, which in turn can be turned into a family car in no time. It also has a lot of space in the backseat for passengers.

New Mitsubishi L200 was built for the family. When it was built, family was on the makers mind. They wanted something that the whole family could use without having to buy two cars, such as one car to haul the family in and then have a pick up for them when they needed to move things around. The idea is to have the family save money, while getting a good pick up that can transformed into a car at anytime. For instance, the whole family can now go shopping in one car and if they buy something big, they can still put the item in the back without bothering anyone that is sitting in the backseat.

2011 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport

2011 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport-1

The 2011 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport compact sport-utility vehicle ("SUV") recently made its North American debut at the 2010 New York International Auto Show. The Outlander Sport has already been released overseas, where it is known as the Mitsubishi RVR in Asia and the Mitsubishi ASX ("Active Sport Crossover") in Europe.

The new Outlander Sport is a condensed version of the successful Mitsubishi Outlander SUV. The 5-seat Sport is 13.6 inches shorter and 440 pounds lighter than the Outlander. The regular Outlander has an available V-6 engine and 7-passenger seating. The streamlining of SUVs into more compact form is a popular automotive trend.

The Outlander Sport will come with a 2.0-liter, 148 horsepower, and 4-cylinder MIVEC engine. Its styling draws information from Mitsubishi's Lancer sport and is part of part of Mitsubishi's plan to reposition itself as a maker of smaller and more efficient cars. The vehicle is expected to get fuel economy above 30 miles per gallon on the highway and produce low emissions. To save weight, the Outlander Sport comes with recycled plastic front fenders and thinner high-strength steel in the tailgate, doors, and hood.

The Outland Sport is expected to have a base price of under $20,000. A five-speed manual will come standard on the base ES model. A six-speed magnesium paddle-shifted Continuously Variable Transmission will be available on the ES model and standard on the SE model. The model will have available Mitsubishi's electronic all-wheel drive system. Other available options will include a navigation system with traffic updates, a 710-watt nine speaker sound system, and HID headlamps. This model will go on sale this fall in the United States.

A great week is to have a 2010 Mitsubishi Lancer for a test drive. It was absolutely terrific, but this was no ordinary Lancer. This was a Sportback Ralliart model, complete with enough racing features to provide an exhilarating drive. There were a few downsides, however.

Mitsubishi has their Lancer EVO, which is fairly popular and performs well. This new Sportback model of the Lancer provides more versatility by combining a sporty car with the convenience of a five door wagon-like vehicle. There is even a rear cargo floor that can be dropped about three inches to provide additional cargo space if needed.

The company made the famous Japanese Zero during WW2. The Zero was formidable in combat from Wake Island to Kamakazie raids on aircraft carriers.

After the war, Mitsubishi began ventures into petrochemical and nuclear areas. The company is now the largest Japanese trading company with 200 firms in 80 countries and over 50,000 workers. EVs are under serious development in Japan
