subject: Something For Every Driver At Mitsubishi [print this page] Mitsubishi produces a family of cars, from the economical Colt to the dominant rally-bred Lancer Evolution X, the powerful L200 and eco-friendly innovation i MiEV. In its relatively short 40-year history, its no surprise Mitsubishi has appealed to a huge range of car buyers. Adding a mini utility vehicle (Outlander Sport) and Global Small concept to the line up this year, theres something for everyone in the range at Colt Car Retail dealerships for Mitsubishi in Somerset.
The 2011 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport is an entry-level mini SUV, sitting just below the larger Outlander in the line up. The new model features five seats, front-wheel drive (all-wheel drive as well on the SE) and three modes - automatic, front-drive only, and 50/50 front and rear split. The CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) model also has steering wheel paddles for manually changing gear. A compact crossover, the Sport counts zippy handling, a comfortable roomy interior and competitive pricing among its unique offerings.
Mitsubishi has included a wealth of available safety features on the Outlander Sport from ABS, antiskid and traction control, to three types of airbag. Inside, the new voice-activated controls for music MP3 players and mobile phones are built-in to the central dashboard. Use both devices completely hands free while you drive, either to make and answer a call or choose a track from your digital music library. Navigation with real-time traffic data, rear view camera and panoramic sunroof are all optional extras.
In 2012, Mitsubishi starts production on a super-mini car smaller than the Mitsubishi Colt but still able to seat five passengers. The new concept is anticipated to achieve 80 miles to the gallon, delivering high fuel economy and low emissions. Braking and stop-start technology aims to increase driving efficiency, with a car design thats both lightweight and aerodynamically styled.
The new entry-level hatchback concept, powered by 1.0 and 1.2 litre engines, is affordable and compact and set to appeal to a growing number of eco-friendly car buyers. See why the whole range has something for everyone, by going to a Mitsubishi Somerset Colt Car Retail dealership.
