The past year has been big for Mitsubishi with the innovative Mitsubishi i making its way to the United States and the arrival of revamped models across the globe. But despite the fact that European consumers are thoroughly enjoying the influx of new Mitsubishi models at their dealerships, the automaker has decided to pull out of production in the Netherlands.
Perhaps one of the most overused adages in our country is this: "A picture speaks a thousand words." Of course, like any cliché, it's so very true. But we at Skyline Mitsubishi have our own adaptation. We like to say, "A teaser image speaks a thousand words." And in the case of the recently released image of a new Mitsubishi model, those "thousand words" tell of a future Mitsubishi design language.
Attention auto enthusiasts in the Thornton area: Mitsubishi is going Multi-Platinum. No, we don't mean the automaker is gearing up to pump out high-selling music tracks.

What's black, protects the base of your new Mitsubishi model and is made from plants? Upon reading the first two descriptions Skyline Mitsubishi is guessing you thought of floor mats but then read the last one and reconsidered. Well, you shouldn't second guess yourself because the answer "floor mats" is entirely true.

For many, December elicits anticipation for holiday merriment and festivities. While we at Skyline Mitsubishi certainly enjoy the cheerfulness this season brings, we've got a different sort of celebration on the mind. As automotive aficionados we're more than a little eager to unwrap all the wonderful details hidden in new Mitsubishi concepts at this year's Tokyo International Auto Show. But before the veneration of vehicles gets fully underway, we'd like to take a moment to give you a sneak peek at two upcoming Mitsubishi models: the Mitsubishi Concept PX-MiEV II and the Mitsubishi Mirage.
For those interested in a compact crossover built for utility with a lot of space and even more class, Skyline Mitsubishi is happy to share details for the Mitsubishi RVR. In order to compete with those already in the market, the 2011 RVR has made its way to our northern neighbor, Canada. Though most automakers have previously released crossovers into the market, judging by the success of the Mitsubishi Outlander and Mitsubishi Endeavor, we think the RVR will do very well.
Trying something new in the automotive world can be a bit nerve-racking, especially for consumers who have come to rely on the constancy of a certain brand. So it's understandable that some may raise an eyebrow at the next step in hybrid technology that Mitsubishi is taking. Skyline Mitsubishi, however, has a great amount of confidence in the automaker and thinks that the eleventh-generation Mitsubishi Lancer Evo with hybrid-diesel power may just be what the green car industry needs.
In the dynamic realm of technology there seems to be a theme - wires are becoming rapidly obsolete. Think about it. Phones once connected by curly cords are now an ancient artifacts and laptops or, dare we say it, desktops once hooked to the web by Ethernet cables now hit up wifi wherever they go. And just recently, thanks to Mitsubishi, EV models are on the short road to wireless as well. The anticipated Mitsubishi i will be the first mass produced, all electric, rechargeable car that you can power up without plugging in.
British television series Top Gear has placed a Mitsubishi Evo Lancer engine under the guise of a black London cab. But don't let the taxi's harmless appearance fool you. Under the skin sits a powertrain capable of hitting 0 - 60 mph in a mere 3.8 seconds and producing 400 cubic-horsepower. This is one taxi Skyline Mitsubishi advises you never hail.
