New Mitsubishi Outlander (2010) surfaces

The 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander has been launched in Australia And now the revised Outlander – a slightly toned-down version of the GT Concept – has surfaced in Australia as the 2010 Outlander. Featuring the aforementioned Evo nose and a more Evo-like interior, the style is a move towards a family theme across the range by Mitubishi. The 2010 Outlander will feature Mitsubishi’s Super-All Wheel Control (S-AWC) – at least on the V6 versions – which improves handling and traction.

Concept Car of the Week: AMC Amitron (1967)

While the American auto industry spent most of the late ‘60s creating huge barges powered by monstrous engines with loud decals on disco paint jobs, AMC believed in the future of compact cars, fuel economy, and go-faster stripes. Designed under Richard Teague's supervision, the quirky Amitron was unveiled in 1967 in a hotel in Detroit. Measuring less than 2,200mm long, it is 350mm shorter than a Smart Fortwo and its wide track gave room for three passengers seating abreast.

Alfa Romeo 4C Concept video – lest we forget

Alfa Romeo release an Alfa 4C Video One of the most appealing cars at this year’s Geneva Motor Show was the Alfa Romeo 4C, a good-looking, mid-engined, 2-seater coupe. Better still, Alfa let it be known that this 4C Concept wasn’t just for fun, it was on the way to a showroom near you. In fact we believed the Alfa 4C was the car that would be the halo model for Alfa Romeo’s return to the American market, at that time expected to be in 2012 but, as we reported recently, that plan is going a bit awry.
