For this year’s Tokyo Motor Show, Mitsubishi will present a small plug-in hybrid SUV concept, which it says “pulls together the company’s electrification and all-wheel drive control expertise and technologies.”
Unsurprisingly, there’s isn’t a lot to go on here, with Mitsubishi adding that the show car will have a downsized PHEV drivetrain, as well as an electric 4WD system that allows it to deliver “unparalleled driving pleasure and confidence over all terrain in light and wind.”
To go along with the announcement, there’s also a teaser image of the concept’s rear quarter design, revealing a boxy shape with a split roof styling. We also get to see carbon-fibre trim on each of the “humps,” along with four circular elements that could be associated with the car’s cooling system.
Nestled between these items is a window that provides a glimpse of what is likely an aspect of the concept’s powertrain. We’ll only know more about the unnamed vehicle when it is presented in Tokyo later in October.

Proton seems to be sleeping. Time to wake up Proton
Why talk about Proton. What about your Perodua hybrid promised since 2003?
Wake up, Perodua. Even hybrid also no news for 16 years despite fanboys claiming Perodua can use Toyota’s technologies. Toyota is leader in hybrid, but why Perodua Hybrid never coming out? Perodua must be sleeping again.
what about the other company that rides on Toyota’s back? their fanatics keep on boasting sales figures, yet that company can’t even research EV and PHEV tech? I wonder where do all the profits based on sales figures go? hmmm… or is it big bro Toyota haven’t give them scrapped tech to use? hmmm…
Lol! What is this? Turbines from Gundam chestpack?
We want the superior four door saloon that called Lancer, and its EVOLUTION!
