Mitsubishi will get a new electric car fDrive.cz

Since the Mitsubishi brand has been assigned the role of a manufacturer of SUVs and crossovers in the new leadership of the company, the novel will also enter these waters. In particular, it should be a compact SUV and an all-electric car, which will be the return of pure electric cars after the kei-powered car Mitsubishi i-MiEV of 2010, which, on the other hand, was a pioneer in its time. , was quietly removed from the ranks without a successor. The novel will be based on the larger of the two versions of the global electric platform, which has been renamed AmpR Medium (formerly CMF-EV), and the automaker will announce more details about it in 2024. According to the CEO of Renault Group Luca de Meo European Car News announced that although the car is advertised as a European model, it will go “worldwide”.

Mitsubishi currently only offers hybrids, including PHEVs, and at the same time it is facing declining sales due to the market problems of its flagship model, the Eclipse Cross. The novelty should help it regain a good position in the adventure vehicle segment, which should also be helped by the arrival of the new generation hybrid Outlander next year. Contrary to previous estimates, he will also look at Europe in the end.

Mitsubishi, owned by the giant Nissan, is undergoing a major overhaul. It withdrew from some European markets, invested about five billion crowns in the electric car division Ampere, and at the same time it is ending the Chinese market.
