In our latest Coverstory, we suggested that the tenth generation of Mitsubishi Evo should be on your top 10 list of cars to buy if you ever become a millionaire. The Japanese automaker is really strapped for cash and it really doesn’t need this sort of halo car in its range, so the next one will either be very strange or it won’t come at all.
We’ve been hearing a lot of these diesel, hybrid and electric rumors in all sorts of combinations lately. They are so numerous that there’s bound to be some truth to them, which is heart braking, frankly. Inside sources have told WhatCar? that the next generation Evo will arrive in about three years, and it will actually be a plug-in hybrid.
This move will help the Japanese automaker establish itself better in the ever more competitive green market, but it will destroy an iconic name in our eyes. Right now, the diesel variant is the most likely, but a plug-in gasoline powertrain would be more marketable in the US.
