New info on the next generation Mitsubishi EVO XI is starting to emerge, and according to the British press, the car’s powertrain will be a diesel hybrid.
The 2013 Mitsubishi EVO XI hybrid was initially planed to receive the petrol hybrid powertrain from the PX-MiEV Concept, but it seems like the Japanese automaker has changed its mind, preferring a diesel powerplant.
This diesel engine backed by an electric motor is expected to enable the 2013 Mitsubishi EVO XI to hit 62 mph from a stand still in less than 5.0 seconds while CO2 emission levels will be under 200 grams per Km.
As far as handling the 2013 Mitsubishi EVO XI will use an updated 4WD system.
