No more Evo? |

Some of you may have heard the news that Mitsubishi wanted to stop making the Evo because they wanted a more environmentally friendly image. The backlash received made them decide to keep the name around and continue to make the Evo X for a few more years. They stated, however, that the next evo would be drastically different then any other Evo in the past and would be a "green" car.
I think they already have something in mind: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9GJAci5htcc...player_embedded Its a turbo diesel. Do you guys think that this is a concept of the next Evo? |

video was uploaded in 2008. a 2008 video showing a concept for 2011? i think not Companies come up with concepts way before the production versions are finalized. it's entirely possible that a concept developed in 2008 could be put into production for 2012 or even later... And this article says that the evo could turn towards even more of a "green" car than a turbo diesel. They might be turning the evo name towards a compact hybrid. |

I think they will be more likely to cater to customers at this point. Thats who will be buying it after all. And I think the Evo name is more fitting to a turbo diesel. It could vary well be a turbo diesel hybrid though. Electric motors to help with lag at launch? Would allow them to slap on a bigger turbo because they wouldn't have to worry about lag. Sounds like a great idea to me.

Diesel motors aren't even more green if you use them on short stop and go city journeys. Before they get to the optimal running temperature they burn more fuel than a petrol engine will.

SOLUTION: Buy used Evos until they make it again.

Gay cars? Since all cars are girls, that means they're lesbians.... And lesbians are sexy.... So all these manufacturers are going to make sexy cars now?! I can't wait! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toothygrin.gif)
