@Geneva: Mitsubishi E-Compact

Mitsubishi Motors Corporation (MMC) unveiled their Concept-Global Small vehicle, the “e-compact” at the 81st Geneva MotorShow. After “Project Global” in the C/D-Segments, MMC is now pushing the boundaries of global product planning with the forthcoming introduction of “Global Small” in the B-Segment: next-generation architecture with built-in flexibility to accommodate - by design - customer requirements in ALL world markets in the lower sector of the market(s).

Previewed as “Concept-Global Small” at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show, this “e-compact” will be unveiled in production form towards the end of this year, prior to a start of production scheduled for early 2012 at an equally all-new plant MMC is currently building in Thailand, its third factory in this strategic production hub.
