Mitsubishi's Lancer scores a win in AutoPacific's 2009 Vehicle Satisfaction Awards, taking top score for Compact Car.

Ed Kim got an exclusive interview and drive with Kenichiro Wada, the project manager for Mitsubishi’s innovative i-Miev electric car. Hear Wada-san talk about some of the car’s innovative features as well as his take on some of the infrastructure challenges that face pure electrics.

The all-new Mitsubishi Lancer outpaced the competition in the very competitive Compact Car Segment. From the base Lancer to the GTS, owners are satisfied with the reincarnation of Mitsubishi’s compact, 4-door sedan. Owners appreciated the Lancer’s Exterior Styling, with its aggressive design and shark-like nose. There also were high satisfaction scores for Safety as Mitsubishi sets a new benchmark for passive safety with a seven-airbag system, a first in the segment.

AutoPacific's annual Vehicle Satisfaction Awards have been announced. These awards are chosen directly by vehicle owners, with no input from the researchers.

Maybe it’s Europe-envy, or an increased sense of green, but I‘ve always been attracted to minimalism. From architecture to coffee without the fancy names.

Mitsubishi showed its RA Concept at the North American International Auto Show. The RA is a two-seat diesel powered sports car with styling cues that telegraph shapes to come from Mitsubishi.

The current generation Mitsubishi Galant has been on the market in the USA since Fall 2003. Designed to be fully competitive with the big dogs in its class - Toyota Camry, Honda Accord and Nissan Altima - Galant is about the size of the Accord, bigger than Camry and Altima (and the Hyundai Sonata).

For the past thirteen years, Sport Utility Vehicles have been the product segment that is most considered by American driving public. 2006 was no exception.

Mitsubishi Motors North America unveiled the Prototype X at the North American International Auto Show to demonstrate what the next “evolution of the Evolution” will be. Based on the new Lancer (which was launched at the show) - see previous VehicleVoice article), Prototype X features a unique front end, rear fenders, rear decklid, aggressive sloping hood with air scoop, 20-inch alloy wheels, and massive brakes. (Translation: more grip, less slip, less torque steer.) The goal is to keep your youtube racing uploads from including clips of your windshield header scraping the pavement.
