MITSUBISHI ‘CONCEPT SPORTBACK’ TO MAKE WORLD DEBUT AT 2005 FRANKFURT MOTOR SHOW

Mitsubishi Motors has released the first sketches of its latest concept car, the Concept-Sportback. Set to make its world debut at Frankfurt Motor Show in September, the Mitsubishi Concept-Sportbackgives the first indications of the company’s vision for its next generation of C-segment cars and debuts its design inspiration for a new European 5-door sports hatchback.


Mitsubishi Motors’ future design direction is readily apparent in the concept’s exterior which features a sporty wedge-like profile, sharply chiselled lines, an assertive stance born from long wheelbase / wide track proportions and a very expressive high-shouldered rear end.


The Mitsubishi Concept-Sportback also debuts a brand new Mitsubishi Motors-developed platform. Of strategic importance, this platform is flexible enough to accommodate a wide range of derivatives and, as a result, will spawn a range of new models over the next three years from SUVs to family hatchbacks.

Looks like it's based on Dodge's Neon replacement, the Caliber.
