2018-2019 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport Details

2018-2019 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport

Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. (MMNA) announced the brand will debut the 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport at the 2017 New York International Auto Show. The brand's top-selling model, the Outlander Sport offers the reliability and affordability consumers look for in the competitive CUV segment. With new exterior and interior enhancements, and the addition of a new Touring Package, the 2018 model-year is sure to carryover the momentum built by its predecessor.

The 2018 Outlander Sport has a new exterior look with an innovative front and rear bumper design and LED running lights. The interior receives a 7 inch Smartphone Link display audio system with Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™, a newly designed floor console and a new shift lever.

Mitsubishi remains mum on powertrain or chassis changes. The company does have a new turbocharged, direct-injected 1.5-liter four of undisclosed potency; it’s slated to power the coupelike new Eclipse Cross ute that is due early next year. That engine could make its way into the Outlander Sport to replace the aging naturally aspirated 148-hp 2.0-liter and 168-hp 2.4-liter four-pots in the current Outlander Sport.

Prices also were not announced, but they aren’t expected to stray far from the current $20,690 to $28,590 that Mitsubishi asks for the 2017 version. Watch for the 2018 Outlander Sport to appear in Mitsubishi showrooms this fall.

A touring package brings automated emergency braking, forward-collision warning, lane-departure warning, automatic high-beams, and a rearview camera, along with a panoramic sunroof.

2018-2019 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross Details

2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross

Mitsubishi Motors Corporation (MMC) is to debut the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross compact SUV to the world at the 2017 Geneva International Motor Show. The Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross is a globally strategic model that will be shipped first to Europe in the fall of 2017, and then rolled out in Japan, North America, Australia and other regions.

 The distinctly sharp and dynamic Mitsubishi SUV coupe form is distinguished by: its wedge profile with distinctive beltline and strong character line; a forward raked rear window; the sharply cut off rear gate and short overhang; and beefy fenders projecting the image of a powerful athlete.

 MMC's DYNAMIC SHIELD front design concept refers to the protective shield shape visually formed by the black central area represented by a black radiator grille that symbolizes the performance of the car. The black area is embraced from three directions - from the left, right, and bottom. DYNAMIC SHIELD emphasizes the front end's functionalities aimed at protecting both people and the car itself.

Together with progressive steering, the four-link rear axle, and the tight suspension setup lowered by 25 millimeters (1.0 in) relative to the A3, the RS3 Sportback combines fascinating dynamism with superior stability. Compared to that production model, the track at the front axle of the RS3 Sportback is wider by 20 millimeters (0.8 in) - and the wheel arches are accordingly flared wider. As standard, Audi includes 19-inch cast wheels and 235/35 tires, and brake disks with a diameter of 310 millimeters (12.2 in). Alternatively, customers will be able to choose carbon-fiber ceramic disks in front. At the rear axle, brake disks with a diameter of 310 millimeters (12.2 in) are used.

Other highlights include the Audi phone box, the Bang & Olufsen Sound System with 705 watts of power, and many driver assistance systems. In slow-moving traffic up to 65 km/h (40.4 mph), for example, the traffic jam assist keeps the car at a safe distance from the vehicle in front and can briefly take over the steering. Also new in the Audi RS3 Sportback are the emergency assist, which automatically stops the car if required, and cross traffic assist rear. The latter system looks out for crossing vehicles when the driver is pulling out of a parking space.

Orders for the Audi RS3 Sportback and the RS3 Sedan will be accepted in Europe from April 2017 under the "Audi Sport" label; the market launch will follow in August 2017. The base price for the Audi RS3 Sportback is 54,600 euros, and the Audi RS3 Sedan is listed at 55,900 euros.

My general point is 7,5/10 to this car.
