Mitsubishi GT Prototype Sport SUV

Mitsubishi recently announced at the New York International Auto Show the Outlander GT Prototype, an all-new design intended to improve upon the performance and technology found in the current Outlander. And while Mitsubishi refers to the Outlander GT Prototype as a “design study,” the automaker also states that the vehicle “infuses performance and design inspiration from Mitsubishi’s Lancer sport sedans and provides clear indicators of the future of Outlander.” That makes it a pretty sure bet the Outlander GT will see production for the 2010 model year.
According to a Mitsubishi executive, the Outlander GT Prototype is “packed with technology, performance and premium features that are uncommon in the compact SUV class.” Borrowing both design and technical inspiration from other current Mitsubishi models, the Outlander GT Prototype features an enhanced V-6 engine, upgraded shifting program, a technologically advanced all-wheel-drive system, a sport-tuned suspension with upgraded wheels and brakes, and several advanced in-vehicle technologies.
