I like it. It would make a great Evo. Of course I’m one of those outliers that likes hatches. I’d like it even better as a short-wheelbase 3-door. That would be much more tossable.
If the rumors can be believed, these sketches should preview the Mitsubishi Lancer Prototype S concept that was supposed to be the company’s big splash for the Geneva Motor Show.
The Prototype S is a 5-door hatchback version of the standard Lancer, which reports say should be in near-production trim when it hits the stand in Geneva. Little is now known about the svelte concept, including whether or not it could ever make its way to U.S. sale, though we’d certainly be stoked if it did.
More to come about the 5-door Lancer, when the Geneva show kicks off around the beginning of March. Till then check out the concept sketches in the gallery below.
