Mitsubishi has released a single teaser image of a new vehicle that will not be unveiled until October 2nd at the Paris Motor Show.
Other than this single teaser image, Mitsubishi is keeping all the details under wraps until the show. Any idea on what it could be?
Mitsubishi is also going to show off the Lancer Sportback and Racing Lancer at the show. The 240 horsepower Lancer Ralliart will also be on hand for the show in both sedan and Sportback versions.

It looks like a Lancer/ Ralliart/ Evolution.

I'm gonna guess that it's a small coupe, possibly a hothatch, probably designed to be fuel-efficient. That's the only thing that's missing from mitsu's lineup.

OH, OH, is that the new STi?!!!
Looks like the current model. I guess they are taking cues from Honda now.

I'm gonna guess Mitsu is like every other damn car company and this will be a crossover POS.
eh... who knows, maybe it will be something like a CX7 with Evo running gear...

It's their new 5 door, Rally-SUV. It's meant to compete with the Subaru STi, while carrying a family of 8 and 8 sheets of 4x8 plywood.
The nose is low to improve the mileage from it's double turbo-charged diesel engine.
Have I mentioned what little respect I have for teaser images?
