Compact sport sedan Mitsubishi Motors North America (MMNA) has introduced the all-new, 2008 Lancer compact sport sedan, delivering driven-to-thrill dynamics, “class-up” value, advanced safety and available cutting-edge user-technology in an aggressively styled package. The new-generation Lancer models arrive in Mitsubishi dealerships in early 2007. The 2008 Lancer brings the bold, dynamic lines of the show-stopping Mitsubishi Concept-X to the showroom. First shown in 2005, the stunning Concept X previewed not only the next generation Mitsubishi compact sport sedan, but also a new design language to convey an unmistakable brand identity. A “shark-nosed” front end inspired by jet fighter air intakes, a distinct wedge-like profile and crisp, taut lines highlight the Lancer’s exciting new design. The 2008 Lancer is based on a new performance-engineered global platform that also forms the foundation of the all-new Mitsubishi Outlander SUV and will underpin the next-generation high-performance Lancer Evolution model. Lancer’s comprehensive safety package provides seven standard air bags, including the first driver’s knee air bag in a Mitsubishi model. The new-generation Lancer’s standard new 2.0-liter DOHC MIVEC 4-cylinder engine is among the most powerful standard engines in its segment, with 152 hp at 6,000 rpm (Federal Tier 2, Bin 5 emissions) and 146 lb.-ft. of peak torque at 4,250 rpm. (For California, Lancer is PZEV-certified and offers 143 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 143 lb.-ft. of peak torque at 4,250 rpm.) The 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer is available in three levels of trim and driving dynamics: DE, ES and the sport-tuned GTS. The Lancer ES model projects a refined appearance with 5-spoke 16-in. alloy wheels, color-keyed door handles and mirrors and a chrome grille surround. The GTS’s styling is even more aggressive than on other Lancer models, with 10-spoke 18-in. alloy wheels, front and side air dams, standard fog lights, a rear spoiler and a chrome tailpipe tip. First Mitsubishi in North America with a CVT All Lancer models come with a standard crisp-shifting 5-speed manual transmission. The new-generation Lancer is the first Mitsubishi in North America to offer an optional continuously variable transmission (CVT) in place of a conventional automatic transmission. When equipped with the CVT, the Lancer GTS exclusively features a 6-step Sportronic® mode that allows the driver to manually control transmission operation using magnesium steering wheel paddle shifters – a first in the segment. In contrast to a conventional automatic transmission, which uses fixed gear ratios, a CVT operates on a pulley system that allows an infinite variability between highest and lowest available ratios with no discrete steps or shifts. A CVT smoothly adapts to changing vehicle speeds, allowing the engine speed to remain at its level of peak efficiency, helping to improve both fuel economy and exhaust emissions. International Driving Character The new Lancer is built on a longer wheelbase and wider track – but with a slightly shorter overall length than the previous model. A 2.3-inch increase in both the front and rear track dimensions – now 60.2 in. – sets the stage for the new Lancer’s solid, stable handling capability. Wheelbase was lengthened to 103.7 in. from 102.3 in, and overall width is increased from 66.7 in to 69.4 in. Overall length, however, has been reduced by 0.6-in., giving the new Lancer a more road-hugging attitude that is especially evident with the GTS model’s 18-in. wheels. Lancer’s highly rigid unibody body structure, which makes extensive use of high-strength steel, allows for sport-oriented suspension tuning while also providing a smooth, compliant ride. Compared to the previous-generation Lancer, torsional rigidity has been increased by 56 percent, and bending rigidity is up by 50 percent – increases that exceed body stiffness measurements of even the previous Lancer Evolution IX. Mitsubishi refined the new Lancer’s suspension calibration to deliver an international driving character more commonly found in expensive European sport sedans. Front suspension employs strut tower bars that enhance lateral rigidity for precise steering response. The Lancer’s sophisticated new multi-link rear suspension is a major factor in providing ride and handling characteristics that might be expected from a more expensive vehicle. Using separate coil springs and shock absorbers helps maximize trunk room. Lancer DE and ES models feature standard 16-in. wheels (steel on DE, alloy on ES) with 205/60 R16 tires. The 2008 Lancer GTS – with the standard 5-speed manual transmission or the optional CVT – combines a sport-tuned suspension – including different stabilizer bars and spring/shock damping rates – with 18-inch wheels and 215/45 R18 tires to make this model an aggressive twisty-road tamer. The GTS’s brakes are the same as used on the larger, heavier Outlander SUV, featuring 11.6-in. (294 mm) vented discs in front and 11.9-in. (302 mm) solid discs in rear. Comprehensive Safety Package The 2008 Lancer is built around Mitsubishi’s next-generation Reinforced Impact Safety Evolution (RISE) unibody design. The RISE body structure disperses energy loads during side and rear crashes and controls distortion, enhancing occupant protection and also helping to protect the fuel system during a rear impact. The 2008 Lancer’s safety package is one of the most comprehensive in the segment and includes an advanced dual front air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) with occupant sensors, standard front seat-mounted side-impact air bags and side curtain air bags, plus a driver’s knee air bag. The Lancer ES and GTS models include as standard an anti-lock braking system (ABS) with electronic brake-force distribution (EBD), which is available as an option for the DE model. All Lancer models feature a tire pressure monitoring system. International-Inspired Interior As with the exterior, the Lancer’s interior is characterized by clean and crisp surfaces, free of gimmicks and using high-quality materials and marked by careful attention to detail. Each trim line is distinguished by its own distinct seating materials and interior trim. The overall instrument panel shape and design contribute to a more spacious interior feeling than seen in some competitors. The roomy feeling is no illusion, as the Lancer provides 94.8 cu. ft. of passenger space (93.3 with the optional sunroof). Precision-designed detailing on all controls lends a “high-touch,” high-tech feel. The short-stroke switches also impart a feeling of quality and solidity, and audio switches are finished in piano black for an upscale appearance. Metallic-like trim highlights the shifter bezel, and also the steering wheel-mounted audio and cruise controls switches in the ES and GTS models. Premium In-Car Technology All Lancer models for 2008 come pre-wired for accessory SIRIUS® Satellite Radio. This in-demand feature is also included in the optional Sun and Sound Package that is available for the ES and GTS models, where it is combined with a power glass sunroof, SIRIUS® Satellite Radio with 6 month pre-paid subscription and a 650-watt (max.), Rockford-Fosgate® Premium Audio system – the most powerful factory-installed audio system in the segment. Similar to the option offered for the new-generation 2007 Outlander SUV, the audiophile-quality Rockford-Fosgate system has been custom-tuned for the Lancer’s interior acoustics to reproduce all types of music with remarkable clarity and power. The system includes a 6-CD in-dash head unit with MP3 playback capability and features an audio input jack to connect an iPod® or similar media player. The Lancer’s Rockford-Fosgate system plays through nine speakers in seven positions, including a trunk-mounted subwoofer. The sport-tuned GTS is also the technology leader of the Lancer line, featuring a standard with a Bluetooth® wireless technology cell phone interface system with voice recognition microphone for hands-free calling (available for the ES model). The GTS model is exclusively available with the optional Navigation and Technology Package, which combines a 30-gigabyte hard drive navigation system with digital music server function, the Mitsubishi Multi-Communication System and the FAST Key (Freehand Advanced Security Transmitter) entry system. FAST Key allows the driver to unlock the vehicle simply by having the remote in a pocket or purse and grasping the handle on either of the front doors or the trunk. Lancer: The Intelligent Choice Mitsubishi designed the new-generation Lancer with a focus on reduced operating costs and increased reliability and durability. For example, replaceable crush boxes used on the front side members can help reduce the repair costs for a light collision. Using a timing chain instead of a belt – as many engines in the segment use – allows for a more compact design, helps ensure reliability and eliminates the need for belt replacement. Iridium-tip spark plugs contribute to lower emissions and help extend major service intervals. Finally, Lancer customers benefit from the peace of mind of having one of the industry’s longest warranties. Mitsubishi cars, sport utility vehicles and pickup trucks are backed by comprehensive new vehicle limited warranties. Mitsubishi cars and sport utility vehicles come with a 10-year/100,000 mile powertrain limited warranty, along with a 5-year/60,000 mile bumper to bumper new vehicle limited warranty. Mitsubishi pickup trucks are covered by a 5-year/60,000 mile bumper to bumper new vehicle limited warranty that also includes powertrain components. All Mitsubishi vehicles have a 7-year /100,000 mile anti-corrosion/perforation limited warranty, along with 5-years/unlimited miles Roadside Assistance, which includes free towing to the nearest authorized Mitsubishi retailer.

Smaller car - bigger engine Here’s one last look at a Subaru Impreza prototype before its make its official debut at the New York Auto Show in a few months. Subaru gave us a big clue with the showing of their B5 concept, and the Impreza and WRX models are following the B5’s lead with a dramatic makeover which turns its trunk into a hatchback! Yes, that’s right: The Impreza, as seen here, will be a hatchback when the new model makes it’s debut for the 2008 model year! Just like the B5 Concept. And, we’re hearing the Impreza name may even change with the introduction of the new car, but we can’t imagine Subaru dropping the WRX designation. As for power – we’re anticipating a big update to their 2.5-liter H4 turbo, with an output of around 330-horsepower and maybe even higher in some markets!

The new Yaris TS is a flagship model for the highly successful Toyota Yaris range, offering customers enjoyable sports performance with no compromise on refinement or driveability. Positioned as ‘the best Yaris you can buy’, the Yaris TS offers a high level of standard equipment, great open road driving characteristics and sporty, yet sophisticated styling. And, just like the latest generation Yaris on which it is based, Toyota’s Yaris TS additionally stands for exceptional space, safety and comfort in a car of this class. These features, carried through since the original launch of Yaris in 1999, have ensured the success of the model both on a commercial level and in raising the brand profile of Toyota worldwide. International recognition for styling, passenger comfort and durability have followed. The original Yaris won European Car of the Year in 2000 and was also Japan’s Car of the Year in 1999, the first model ever to receive such global recognition. Having achieved a solid reputation for reliable engineering and safety, the Yaris underwent a major restyle in 2003. Two years later, the German TÜV Auto Report 2005 has ranked the Yaris the ‘Most Reliable Car’ in the four to five year category. The recent 2005 J.D. Power Customer Satisfaction Index studies in France and Germany have also ranked Yaris Verso and Yaris Hatchback as first and second in their category, respectively. Typically, Yaris customers are fond of technology and innovation, appreciating the car for its clever design and advanced features in a compact package. Yaris TS will enhance this product position even further. With ever-growing annual sales the Yaris was sold over 134,000 times during its initial launch year 1999 to an impressive 251,747 in 2006. In total, over 1.6 million units were sold across Europe since its initial launch. The best Yaris you can buy - All new 1.8 Dual VVT-i engine - Sophisticated TS styling - Sales start in Q1 2007 Yaris TS is the first car in the Toyota range to be equipped with an all-new 1.8-litre Dual VVT-i petrol engine that delivers enjoyable driving performance, refinement and excellent fuel consumption. The new engine, with dual variable valve timing, developed 133 DIN hp (98 kW) at 6000 rpm which will put Yaris TS at the heart of the sports compact hatchback segment. Powering through a slick five-speed manual gearbox, Yaris TS will offer 0-100 km/h acceleration in 9.3 seconds and a top speed of 194 km/h. At the same time, Yaris TS benefits from a sports-tuned chassis and suspension that generates enjoyable driving pleasure while also offering smooth ride comfort and good handling. Yaris TS is lower all-round (by 8mm) and dampened. The suspension rates have been retuned to complement the standard 17-inch alloy wheels and tyres. The electric power steering has been retuned and the steering gear ratio is 12% higher than the current generation Yaris to give even more precise and nimble control. The new Yaris TS will be available in both three and five-door body styles, giving it a wide appeal and allowing customers to enjoy sports hatchback performance without compromising on style, practicality or comfort. Exterior styling, with deep front and rear bumpers, side skirts and discreet rear roof spoiler, ensures Yaris TS will stand out from the crowd. Personalised TS badging adds to the appeal, along with a chrome sports exhaust and new, LED-based rear lights. The interior styling is equally sophisticated with exclusive trim to the sports seats and doors, chrome-plated highlighting of the air vents, leather trimmed steering wheel and unique amber lighting of the main controls. The main meter panel features hi-tech Optitron units with an analogue display of road and engine speed. The flagship positioning of Yaris TS is indicated by the high levels of standard equipment which include air conditioning, single slot CD player and radio with six speakers and fully adjustable steering column. Yaris TS benefits from the excellent safety rating of the entire Yaris range which, with 5 stars and 35 points in EuroNCAP tests, is among the class leaders. The TS will be available with up-to nine airbags, including a driver’s knee airbag, and active safety equipment such a vehicle stability control (VSC) and traction control (TRC) as standard. Yaris TS is a significant addition to the latest generation Yaris range, bringing a new sophisticated sporty appeal to the line-up. It will add to the sales success of the Yaris, which is Toyota’s most popular single model in Europe. The predicated Yaris TS sales for Europe in 2007 are 12,000 units. Typical customers are likely to be successful single people or young couples attracted by the style and performance of Yaris TS, plus Toyota’s worldwide reputation for quality and robustness. They are not prepared to compromise on refinement – preferring an easy to drive, responsive and sophisticated sports hatchback. Unlike rivals, the Yaris TS is likely to attract a balance of male and female customers – and some more mature enthusiast drivers. “The new Yaris TS will be a flagship model for the Yaris range and is positioned at the heart of the European sports hatchback segment, offering refinement and sophistication,” says Andrea Formica, Senior Vice President Sales, Marketing & After-Sales at Toyota Motor Europe. “It will add to the awareness of the entire Yaris range throughout Europe and position Toyota as a true B-segment player.” The new Yaris TS will go on sale across Europe from Q1 2007.
