2015 Mitsubishi Evolution Hybrid

Tokyo - sedan Lancer Evolution has become one of the legends of Mitsubishi . 2 Year again , Mitsubishi is rumored to be a radical step in the Lancer Evolution design changes .After carrying the Outlander hybrid system , the Japanese manufacturer is reportedly also will install a hybrid system in Evolution .

As reported Leftlanenews , this decision will be taken after assessing crossover Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV ( hybrid ) increasingly popular in the market .So that it is possible for the Mitsubishi Evolution sports sedan will carry the same system . Allegedly Evo will carry Powertrain Hybrid AWD machine that consists of 2 electric motors .As for the engine will use the engine capacity of 1.1 liter 3 -cylinder turbo that has the power to 135 horsepower .

However the electric motor to offer this time will have a smaller size and lighter than it had been inserted in the Outlander PHEV .Where both the electric motor this time will be inserted at the front and rear , and the batteries mounted under the rear seat . So this will contribute to weight balance of 50:50 ( front - rear ) .

Further Evolution Hybrid car this time allegedly also would adopt drive system All Wheel Drive ( AWD ) , to be more economical in fuel consumption .However , the conventional engine and 2 electric motors that offer this time seems to be too heavy if using the platform of the Renault Megane .

So we can be sure Mitsubishi will be forced to develop the latest architecture to be able to Mitsubishi Evolution Hybrid .
