The automatic hatchback version of the Mistubishi Lancer is celebrating its premiere in at the Paris Car Show taking place from October 4th to the 19th this year. The five door car, nicknamed “Sportback”, has been specially developed for Europe and should provide a sporty alternative to notchback models when it comes on the market in autumn.
To compliment its already aggressive front, Mitsubishi has added a roof spoiler to the fast sloping back. A new petrol motor with 80 kW/ 109 HP propels the car. In terms of transmission, the driver has the option between a manual five or gears, or an automatic. Prices have still yet to be released.
Moreover, a Ralliart variant is entering the market to function as a bridge between the normal Lancer, and the Lancer Evolution sport version coming in 2009. The all-wheel-drive car is available as a notchback and is propelled by a 176 kW/ 240 HP strong turbo petrol motor.
