Mitsubishi will present the G4 concept at the Bangkok International Motor Show

While all eyes are turned to the Geneva Motor Show at the end of March will be held the 34th Bangkok International Motor Show that will also get a premiere. Mitsubishi will introduce the Concept G4 (Global 4-door sedan) that will preview a global compact sedan.

The small sedan utilizes the RISE (Reinforced Impact Safety Evolution) for a lower weight to the extensive use of high-tensile steel meaning it can be powered by a small engine like the 1.2 liter MIVEC engine mated to a CVT gearbox.

While we can't clearly see the look of the car, Mitsubishi says the "short nose which delivers an outstanding forward field of view and superior maneuverability" with "graceful and flowing side proportions which balances interior space among the most generous in its class with very sleek aerodynamics, and a dynamic character line which kicks up towards the rear".

The Bangkok International Motor Show starts on March 25, so don't miss it.

Here's the GR-HEV and CA-MiEV concepts Mitsubishi will bring to Geneva

A few weeks ago you saw here two teasers of two cars Mitsubishi was going to reveal at the Geneva Motor Show, but today, like most cars that are going to be revealed in Geneva, we get the first view of the cars, and they look good. It's always nice to see something different from a brand that has been making a few "ugly" cars.

First we have the GR-HEV, which is a four-wheel drive hybrid sport utility pickup truck that will have a clean diesel engine, 4WD technology, featuring Super All Wheel Control (S-AWC) integrated vehicle dynamics control system driveline and will only emit 149g/km of CO2.

Next we have the CA-MiEV. A small car that promises to take electric vehicles "beyond a mostly urban environment". The range? 300km (186miles) which according to Mitsubishi is perfectly "suited for suburban and country daily life", and i agree, it is a really good range for an electric car.

Find out more at the Geneva Motor Show that starts tomorrow.

Mitsubishi brings the GR-HEV and CA-MiEV concepts to Geneva

Mitsubishi still believes electric cars are the future, even if nobody buys them, and must be the reason they will introduce two new concepts at the Geneva Motor Show, the GR-HEV, The Sport Utility Hybrid Truck, and the CA-MiEV, The Suburban EV.

The GR-HEV is a 4-wheel drive hybrid sport utility pickup truck that will have a clean diesel engine and electric motors together with Mitsubishi’s renowned full-time 4WD technology, featuring Super All Wheel Control (S-AWC) integrated vehicle dynamics control system driveline. With all those fancy names i sure hope it will meet the promised 149g/km CO2 emissions.

While the CA-MiEV is a small car that will take electric vehicles "beyond a mostly urban environment", meaning this isn't your typical city car. The range? 300km (186miles) which according to Mitsubishi is perfectly "suited for suburban and country daily life".

Mitsubishi Mirage will be called the Space Star in Europe [Video]

A few months ago Mitsubishi announced that they were bringing to Europe the Mirage, but only to find out the name was already registered, so they decided to call it the Space Star, which is a little confusing since the Space Star was a small MPV sold by Mitsubishi between 1998 and 2005.

The small city car will be named Mirage Space Star in some markets to avoid confusion with the old Space Star. He will stand out for its low price, along with a good level of equipment and very efficient engines, which is synonymous of low consumptions.
