I agree with the Pajero Evo. Someone suggested that the current Megane could be the base of the new Lancer. Which would be weird. I did drove the RS 265 at the ring and it was superb

I'll continue to be skeptical until the actual release is made public. We all know how often the cars they "present" as the actual models never end up being produced or have significant changes.

Concepts will be concepts. . It's a brave way to go, not as much skeptical as i am curious about the end result of this.

I like the front, but hopefully they tone down the back end, too Ford Focus 3door (the one with the rectengular rear in a hatchback form, I for got the name)

Well production version is going to be like 30% of this. I'm in for it, could be my family car while keeping my X.

I hope this takes off, if they get the electric drivetrain right they could put it on a lightweight sedan...

Maybe one day Mitsubishi makes a comeback with an actual Evo. It doesn't look good for them at this point.
