Mitsubishi ’s new Concept cX, which has been officially unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show, has front-end styling similar to the Mitsubishi Lancer but is offered with a hatchback body style.
Power for the cX will come from a new Euro 5 compliant high-output, high-efficiency 134 horsepower 1.9L clean diesel engine that features a variable-geometry turbocharger, a diesel oxidation catalyst, and a diesel particulate filter. The CUV will also utilize Mitsubishi’s new twin-clutch transmission, dubbed Clutch SST (Sport Shift Transmission). The interior will use Mitsubishi’s environmentally-friendly Green Plastic–made from bamboo and other plant-based resins–and the rear hatch will use a split tailgate similar to the one found on the Mitsubishi Outlander . The Concept-cX also uses Mitsubishi’s electronically-controlled 4WD system which will deliver power to the ground via the car’s 225/45R19-sized tires.
