Mitsubishi Concept-RA (三菱下一代Eclipse?)

Mitsubishi Concept-RA
Mitsubishi Motors has announced today the global debut of a new sports car concept, the Mitsubishi Concept-RA, at the 2008 Detroit Motor Show in January. Just coming off of the buzz from this recent North American release of the Lancer EVO X at Los Angeles weeks ago, Mitsu cracks us over the head with this sleek aggressive sports coupe version of the EVO X featuring Super All Wheel Control (S-AWC) and the Twin Clutch SST automated manual transmission which uncoincidentally are both used in Lancer Evo X (JDM version). For maximum sdriving control and dynamics active steering and active suspension are dropped into the pot for good measure. With no shame in diesels these days powering sports cars, the Concept-RA gets a new low-emissions 2.2-liter 4-cylinder DOHC 16-valve turbodiesel featuring variable vane geometry while producing 150 kW (204 PS) and maximum torque of 420 Nm (42.8 kg-m). To save weight and increase crash worthiness, the body is an aluminum space frame along with the hood while the fenders and other outer panels such as door skins are made from recyclable plastic resin.

三菱- RA概念跑車(下一代Eclipse?)
三菱將在底特律車展展出一台全新概念跑車-RA，令人驚艷不已的EVO X雖在北美才亮相不久，三菱這回推出的重砲手可是搭配上S-AWC全時四輪驅動及SST雙離合器手自排變速箱(巧合的是這些配備也源自EVO X)，RA甚至配上主動轉向系統及電子懸吊藉此提升操控極限。不畏別人異樣的眼光，這台以"跑車"為名的RA配上了一具低排放污染，可變正時汽門的2.2四缸雙凸輪軸16汽門渦輪柴油引擎，馬力輸出可達204匹，扭力42.8公斤米。為了同時減輕重量及加強耐撞性能，車身大樑採用了鋁合金車架，而從引擎蓋延伸開來的外觀板金像是車門等等則大量採用環保樹脂
