The New Mitsubishi Evo Concept Is An Electric SUV-Coupe

In a move seemingly designed to enrage anyone with a soft spot for the amazing gas-guzzling Evo models of old, Mitsubishi has revived the name for a future-thinking battery-powered SUV-coupe
The New Mitsubishi Evo Concept Is An Electric SUV-Coupe

Well, there’s no easy way to break this to you, CTzens, but this SUV-coupe powered by electricity is the latest Mitsubishi Evo.

Specifically, it’s the e-Evolution Concept, which the company says “signals the start of an exciting new era which will see long-term growth and sustainable development for the brand.” In a short press release Mitsubishi confirms that the ‘signature’ four-wheel drive is there, but comes with more advanced AI and a ‘low-slung’ SUV-style body.

It’s marked for a debut at the Tokyo Motor Show in just over a month’s time. This teaser comes just a few days after Mitsubishi confirmed a platform-sharing partnership with Renault and Nissan.

Maybe they are doing that to earn money. Then when they got the money maybe they can revive the TRUE Evolution

The new Eclipse looks a bit like a modern Aztek from the back…

Remember how most of us joked that it will return as an SUV. Well, it’s worse, not only it’s a SUV, but it’s full electric.
R.I.P. Mitsubishi

They know how important the Evolution name is so they won’t choose to put it on something that doesn’t deserve it.

A concept. Most concepts never look like that when they hit production.
