The 2007 Outlander joins an invigorated lineup of Mitsubishi vehicles designed to exude the "thrill" of driving, including the recently launched all-new 2007 Eclipse Spyder convertible and the new 2007 Galant Ralliart sports sedan. The Mitsubishi Concept-X, a head turning design study introduced at the 2005 Tokyo Motor Show, will make its first public appearance in the United States at the Javits Center. Also on display is the Mitsubishi Concept-CT MIEV, a groundbreaking concept for a hybrid-powered small car, first unveiled at the 2006 North American International Auto Show.

2007 Outlander

The all-new 2007 Mitsubishi Outlander is on the leading edge of versatility, technology, and value in the crossover SUV segment. The 2007 Outlander debuts the all-new 3.0L V6 MIVEC engine and features a standard six-speed Sportronic(R) automatic transmission with one-touch manual shifting and adaptive electronics. The Outlander XLS adds rally inspired Sportronic steering wheel paddle shifters for shifting control at the driver's fingertips. All Wheel Control (AWC), an advanced version of all-wheel drive is available. An innovative two-piece flap-fold rear tailgate makes cargo loading easy, and an in-floor stowable third-row seat adds to the XLS model's versatility. Technology is one of the hallmarks of the new Outlander, including a standard Bluetooth(R) hands-free cellular phone interface, advanced FAST-Key access system, and optional 650-watt Rockford Fosgate(R) audio system and DVD entertainment. A new hard-drive navigation system option will be state of the art.

Mitsubishi Concept-X

With an exterior that carries over the full flavor of the Lancer Evolution's image and a high quality interior, the Mitsubishi Concept-X points the way to a new-age Evolution design that is as handsome and purposeful as it is functional. The Concept-X mates a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder DOHC MIVEC intercooler-turbocharged engine to a high-performance six-speed auto-manual transmission and introduces the Super All Wheel Control (S-AWC) vehicle dynamics control system. An on-board multi-media system complements the interior design, featuring a high-definition LCD monitor displaying real-time vehicle and S-AWC operating status, navigation system maps and DVD audio controls.

Mitsubishi Concept-CT MIEV

The groundbreaking Mitsubishi Concept-CT MIEV introduces an innovative hybrid powertrain packaged in an entirely new type of vehicle architecture. The ultra-compact four-door hatchback captures the essence of the Mitsubishi brand while combining practicality, fun-to-drive performance and low fuel consumption. The key to the Concept-CT MIEV's roomy packaging, performance potential and fuel efficiency is the Mitsubishi In-wheel motor Electric Vehicle (MIEV) hybrid powertrain, which employs an electric motor in each of the vehicle's four wheels. MIEV eliminates the need for a center differential and driveshaft, allowing for location of vital components to optimize safety and weight distribution and maximize interior space. This concept provides a vision into the future of advanced hybrid technology in a fun and futuristic design.

2007 Galant Ralliart

The 2007 Galant Ralliart promises to compete with some of the best sport sedans, accentuating Mitsubishi's racing heritage and renowned bold, modern styling. The Galant Ralliart is distinguished with a powerful 3.8-liter V-6 engine, sport suspension, 18-inch alloy wheels and exclusive exterior styling and interior features. The vehicle debuts the new Rockford Acoustic Design(TM) premium audio system. For 2007, all Galant models will receive more sophisticated styling, an enhanced interior, a refined ride for greater comfort, and additional standard safety equipment for an incredible value. The new 2007 Galant Ralliart will be available this autumn.

2007 Eclipse Spyder

Based on the widely acclaimed 2006 Eclipse coupe, the 2007 Eclipse Spyder combines "Driven to Thrill" design and performance with a high-tech convertible top that folds completely out of sight under a flush-fitting powered tonneau cover in 19 seconds. The GS model is powered by a 162-hp 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine and the GT's 3.8-liter V6 produces 260 hp. The 650-watt Rockford Fosgate(R) premium audio system provides unique automatic sound equalization for top-up or top-down driving. The new 2007 Eclipse Spyder is now available at dealerships.

2006 Model Lineup on display

Galant SE -- This new edition takes its styling cues and features from the GTS model -- including 17" alloys, rear spoiler, leather seating surfaces and automatic climate control and is priced very competitively.

Raider -- New for 2006, the Raider mid-size pickup truck embodies aggressive design cues and useful functionality to appeal to a new generation of truck buyers with upscale tastes and urban style. Raider blazes the trail as the only import nameplate truck in the mid-size class to offer a 4.7-liter, V8 engine which helps provide a class-leading 6,500-lb towing capacity.

Eclipse -- The 2006 Eclipse sports coupe is a serious thrill ride featuring exotic styling and great performance. Completely redesigned from the ground up for 2006, practically the only item this fourth-generation Eclipse has in common with the car it replaces is its name.

Lancer -- The 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer compact sedan hits the mark by featuring a redesigned front fascia, advanced safety upgrades and subtle interior enhancements to complement a spirited, solid and nimble ride -- at a very competitive price.

Endeavor -- Defining the mid-size SUV segment by balancing the design, commanding driving position and utility of an SUV with the driving performance and handling of a car, the 2006 Mitsubishi Endeavor tackles daily driving, extended road trips or off-roading with ease. The new front grille gives it a fresh new appearance.
