Mitsubishi Concept RA

[Wraith]

This is a very interesting concept by Mitsu....same running gear as the new Evo, ie: the super AWD drivetrain and the new SST automated manual, but with a 2.2 turbo diesel (150kw - 420nm) and a stunning coupe body....if that turbo oiler can be tuned to at least 190kw - yes please :drool: should be a diesel heads ultimate wet dream :D

Will be displayed later in 2008, hopefully will be very close to those pics shown :)

audi r8 anyone?

mmmm, I didn't see that at all in the design, after a 2nd look, it has 'a little' Audi R8 in it but still dosn't register that way in my eyes.....

You could be right though, Mitsu made no secrete about chasing after Italian styling (namely Alfa and even Audi) for the new Evo and may now be doing the same with this new concept of theirs...

Interesting thing here is the turbo oiler powerplant, it will most likely be the oiler option on all their future small/medium car types.
