All these, he said abound in the newly introduced Mitsubishi cars.

Explaining the cars one after the other, Mr. Navin said that the Mitsubishi Space Star which is making its debut in Nigeria is a compact 1.2 litre engine car with generous  space and amazing fuel efficiency. The car can cover about 21 kilometres with just one litre of petrol.

Though a hatchback, the Space Star has a very versatile interior. It is available in either manual or automatic transmission.

The Mitsubishi Attrage is also a 1.2 litre engine saloon car with generous space and large boot. It boasts of the same fuel efficiency as the Space Star and is positioned to ccompete in the same segment with the Toyota Yaris, Honda City and Nissan Almera.

The Attrage has a captivating design and comes in either manual or automatic transmission.

The newly introduced Mitsubishi Outlander, according to Mr. Navin is a completely redesigned sports utility vehicle with an entirely new platform. The new Outlander is a seven-seater sport utility vehicle with All-Wheel Control (AWC). The Electrically controlled 4WD offers incredible traction and stability even in challenging terrain by optimally combining Active Stability Control (ASC). The Drive model selector when desired:will make 4WD ECO mode for maximum economy, 4WD Auto mode for normal driving conditions or 4WD Lock mode on rough terrain.

Although the all-new Outlander is available in three engine variants; 2.0 litre MIVEC, 2.4 litre MIVEC, and 3.0 litre V6 MIVEC, CFAO says that they are offering only the 2.4 litre engine with full option as the Nigerian specification.

This engine according to the general manager is extremely responsive and fuel efficient: The Outlander’s other strong point is its leading fuel economy and Co2 emissions, advanced safety and reliability as well as premium quality and spaciousness.
