2011 Mitsubishi CX Crossover Spied Testing

FIRST REVEALED at the 2007 Frankfurt Motor Show, these spy images reveal that development of the 2011 Mitsubishi CX crossover is well underway.

As with the Concept-CX revealed at Frankfurt, the production CX is likely to feature a constant all-wheel-drive system, although no official details have been offered by Mitsubishi.

Mitsubishi is expected to use the CX to showcase a new range of efficient diesel engines, developed specifically to meet strict Euro 5 emissions standards and offering class-leading power.

The diesel engine range is expected to start with a 1.8 litre four-cylinder, developing 101kW and 279Nm of torque.

Each will likely feature a variable geometry turbocharger to improve output and efficiency, with a diesel particulate filter and a diesel oxidation catalyst to keep emissions within strict Euro 5 standards.
