如果你是三菱车迷,一定会对车厂最近发布的这张趣图感到很熟悉,因为它与三菱三年前发布的XR-PHEV有很多共同之处。这款车与XR-PHEV II同样展示了车厂未来将推出的全新紧凑型跨界车。除了这两款概念车,三菱的另一款eX概念车更准确的描绘了道路版跨界车的造型风格。从趣图看,该车设计与这三款概念车非常接近。它采用肌肉感外观和锐利车身及大幅倾斜前风挡,安装三菱公关部官员接受,车身侧面轮廓更像一辆“轿跑型SVU”。突出的车身侧面特征线清晰可见,硕大的轮拱和粗犷的尾灯组成为侧面最抢眼部分。预计车头将采用肌肉感前脸和顺滑前大灯。至于车身尺寸,预计量产版将比ASX/欧蓝德运动版更大,但小于欧蓝德。美版车将搭载全新四缸涡轮引擎。三菱将在3月7日和8日开幕的日内瓦车展发布这款紧凑型SUV,随后将于下半年在欧洲上市,明年初在美国上市。
Mitsubishi compact SUV teased for Geneva
If you’re a Mitsu fan and the attached teaser image seems very familiar, it’s because the pic has a lot in common with another teaser published more than three years ago for the XR-PHEV. That concept along with the XR-PHEV II served as a preview for the brand’s forthcoming all-new compact crossover. Besides these two concepts, Mitsubishi also created the eX, which is actually the most accurate indicator of how the road-going model is going to look like.
As you can see, the design of the model will remain faithful to the three concepts, proposing a rather bold appearance with a sharp body and a slightly raked roofline lending the vehicle the silhouette of a “coupe SUV,” according to Mitsubishi’s PR. A prominent character line is already visible from the attached teaser, as are the beefy wheel arches and the funky shape of the taillights. At the front, expect to find a bold fascia with sleek headlights in the same vein as the eX.
In terms of size, we already know the production version will slot above the ASX / Outlander Sport and below the Outlander in the company’s SUV-packed lineup. In the United States at least, the yet unnamed model will be powered by a brand new turbocharged four-cylinder engine.
Mitsubishi will have the new compact SUV on display at the 2017 Geneva Motor Show starting with the press days scheduled for March 7th and 8th. It will go on sale in Europe in the second half of the year and will reach the U.S. of A. from early 2018.
