I was in my mitsi dealer the other week and i over heard the manager say

"the next five years are going to be exciting as mitsubishi are taking radical steps to launch 5 new cars, the galant and corisma are history and a new luxury saloon will take there place"

not that this bothers me to much cos we havent had a new galant in this country for years.

No word on the luxury saloon, seems more like a new Colt (very attractive) and a replacement Outlander which would also be the basis for a new Shogun, again it looks lovely.

This could be the basis for the new luxury car, the Galant concept ZT, however these shots and stories were doing the rounds in 2007. I'm guessing the design would be tweaked to update it for the future. It looks great at the front, buut too BMW 7 series and the rear lights and look need a bit of work. http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/25/tokyo-motor-show-mitsubishi-previews-next-galant-in-the-concept/

The silver one above was the Galant ZT concept announced in 2007

we should be ready to see more "green" models coming from Mitsi. A friend of mine (who is a Mitsi dealer btw) was at a strategic meeting with Mitsi and he told me about the "global small" etc. Mitsi will take a similar route like Toyota and there will be hybrid cars within the next two years.

Mitsi is going green, which means bye, bye to Turbo powered cars...

Unless performance meets green, goodbye sports cars....... of course it will get there eventually but I dont like to wait....... not sure what will happen with other firms like Aston, Ferrari etc...... I cant see many people buying the new electric Roller........
