Mitsubishi Tokyo Show Concepts Picture Update
We just did a follow up today on Mitsubishi’s Tokyo Show line-up (see here) and discovered that the Japanese firm has added several new images of both the i MiEV and ZT concepts. In a nutshell, the i MiEV Sport is a 2-seater roadster based on the “i†mini equipped with in-wheel electric motors in the front and a single motor in the rear driving the rear wheels. The 4,950 mm or 195-inches long ZT is a sports sedan powered by 188 Hp 2.2L diesel engine mated to Mitsubishi’s Twin Clutch Sport Shift Transmission (SST). There’s a good chance that the ZT could be previewing the next generation Galant. That’s the US market model cause in Japan, the Lancer is sold as the Galant Fortis. -Continued after the jump
