Mitsubishi Lancer Prototype-S



Mitsubishi recently released sketches of its new Lancer Prototype-S set to debut at the 2008 Geneva Auto Show. Just as Concept-X and Prototype-X previewed the new Lancer and Evolution X, the Prototype-S follows in the footsteps of the Concept-Sportback unveiled at Frankfurt in 2005 in showing the forthcoming Lancer Sportback due later this year.

Sporting a metallic orange paint scheme, the Prototype-S will add the convenience of a lift-gate and flexible rear seating to the driving dynamics of the new Lancer range. By Mitsubishi's own admissions, the car was developed by benchmarking Alfa Romeo's 156/159 Sportwagons (dynamic benchmark) and of Saab with the legendary Saab 900 Turbo Combi-Coupé (aspirational benchmark).

Mirroring this aspiration: a sporty wedge-like profile, sharply chiseled lines, assertive stance born from a long wheelbase and wide track proportions, a high-shouldered rear end and the very expressive rear roof spoiler will embody Mitsubishi's vision for a flexible sports sedan in the C/D sector, away from the traditional hatchbacks.
