Last month, April 2024, Nissan and Mitsubishi Motors reported a collaboration to bring a new pickup truck to the North American market. It would be a pretty smart move and give the automakers a new consumer base to appease, especially if the truck is a midsize pickup. Another vehicle in discussion is a new battery-electric…
Mitsubishi Motors has been hanging onto its Outlander Plug-in Hybrid as its sole electrified model in the lineup for years now. After doing very well overseas, the Japanese automaker brought it stateside. At first, the Outlander plug-in did very well for itself, but it would seem interest has tapered off ever since. Sales for the…
The Mitsubishi Triton pickup truck may not have a U.S. release date, and maybe never will. There is some hope with Nissan and Mitsubishi working on a new pickup truck for the U.S. and new battery-electric vehicles (BEV) together. The two investments into the proposal by Renault to open up the BEV facility Ampere are…
We finally made it past the first quarter (Q1) of 2024. It always feels like the longest first three months of the year, but spring is here, and so are the final Q1 sales for automakers. The numbers are in and battery-electric vehicle (BEV) sales are still going up. Unsurprisingly enough, though, internal combustion engine…
That solar eclipse the U.S. experienced earlier this week, April 8, 2024, was mind-blowing. Two total solar eclipses in less than a decade are unheard of, and the event drew crowds from across the world to many places in the country. South Florida didn’t get much of a look, but anyone traveling to one of…
The Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance (Alliance), has been pretty beneficial for the three automakers. First saving Nissan from bankruptcy, followed by swooping in to save Mitsubishi Motors, Renault has been the shining beacon of hope for these two brands. The new Mitsubishi Colt, which only seems to be sold overseas at the moment, is really just a…
Remember the days when popular automakers had a hand in NASCAR and other official rally races? Although we don’t see many rally cars in modern times, the spirit lives on with all sorts of events year-round. One event, specifically, is coming up in Asia during the summer of 2024. The Asia Cross Country Rally (hereafter,…
The Mitsubishi Motors Corporation (MMC) is busy with the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance (the Alliance) and investments in Ampere for new battery-electric vehicles (BEV) slated for the upcoming lineup. While the automaker revs up for new models, it’s still milking its current lineup for all its worth. Specifically, Mitsubishi keeps placing all of its bets on the…
The Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance has been a little quiet, with a lot hinging on each automaker to invest in the new Ampere battery-electric vehicle facility. With new Ampere models planned for Mitsubishi Motors and Nissan this year, we can expect to see some new battery-electric vehicles (BEVs) to enter the Mitsubishi lineup and finally challenge the…
2023 had some very big changes for Mitsubishi Motors. With new developments behind the scenes with the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance, a lot has happened to push forward the Alliance 2030 business strategy. Mitsubishi Motors is securing more investments for a new electrified lineup, and we’re sure the Ampere company is just one part of the solution….
Now that all three automakers of the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance are on board with the new Ampere battery-electric vehicle facility, the alliance expects new models to come to Nissan and Mitsubishi Motors in the next few years. Back in 2020, Mitsubishi was supposed to be the first automaker to release something new to the industry. Instead,…
It was a shame when Mitsubishi Motors decided to discontinue the Mitsubishi Mirage. A lovable hatchback, the Mirage was fuel-efficient and could go the distance. Consumers can drive it for thousands of miles and still keep it going strong. Consumers can thank the Mitsubishi powertrain limited warranty for 10 years/100,000 miles for that. Although the…
