2016 Mitsubishi Lancer GT

The Mitsubishi Lancer is definitely showing its age, but Mitsubishi hopes that a small facelift will help liven it up a bit. The 2016 Lancer gets a refreshed exterior and even more standard features.

In addition to the restyled exterior, the big news is the long list of standard features that the Lancer now gets. The Lancer comes standard with features, like FUSE Hands-free Link System, automatic air condition climate control, fog lights, alloy wheels and new LED daytime running lights.

The SE trim level features all-wheel control, heated front seats, rearview camera and display audio with HD radio, while the new SEL trim level adds leather seats, rain sensing wipers with auto on/off headlights and an auto-dimming mirror. The GT trim adds a sport-tuned suspension, larger disc brakes, 18 inch two-tone alloy wheels, sunroof and rear spoiler, and is available as a 5-speed manual or with the new generation CVT8 transmission.

One thing you might have noticed, is that the Ralliart model with its 237-hp 2.0L engine and full-time awd is missing from the list.
