Whatever the specs, the probably price point is going to be ~50k. I for one will be trading my 2013 EVO X in for a 50k Supra instead of a 50k EVO XI:

 

$50k "future" Supra?... maybe for a second hand, off-lease 2017 model, sometime in 2019 lol

 

If Mitsu doesn't show a prototype 10th Gen Lancer at Tokyo this year... expect no Evo XI in 2015... Maybe they'll re-release the X in a 2015-year model... by the the current gen will be 7 years old!

 

They've already said it will be under 60k

 

Under 60k and a NA V6? The supra Iean.

 

No Evo XI for me I'm not sur for the diesel-hybrid. But I'm ready for the Supra.

 

when did this concept come out, this thing is hottt. Also if this uses a subaru flat 4 motor i want absolutely nothing to do with it. All subaru motors are utter garbage past 400whp.

 

I will trade in my EVO X for the next unless its a tree hugger POS

 

I am honestly very excited about a diesel hybrid.
Diesels are far superior to gas motors. Seeing 3500 diesel trucks run 12 sec ET is nothing new.
At first hybrid scared me but looking at the new Spark EV putting down 400 lbs of torque I’m thinking there may be hope.
I’m only worried about the weight of the battery system. All manufacturers are forgetting that weight is the saving grace that helps all stats on a car, hopefully the fr-s is reminding everyone of this.

 

So with Nissan coming out with the R-Hybrid technology and now Toyota showing a concept Yaris R with the following specs:

- 300HP 1.6L L4 Turbo FWD paired with:
- 2x 60HP electric RWD
- "Super capacitor" for KERS-style power boosts
- Sequential gearbox

I don't know what this Yaris would cost but I'm guessing it will be easily double that of a normal Yaris, but it will probably be an absolute beast, given that a regular Yaris weighs 2400 lbs.

So if Mitsubishi waits until 2015 for a Evo XI Hybrid, literally everyone in the car industry will have something better

That's normal for Mitsu, though.

chevy last week said don't be surprised to see a hybrid corvette

 

Holy crap! An AWD 420hp Yaris would absolutely crush any stock Evo.. Even if the battery's are heavy, it has about 1000 pounds to catch up to a X. I mean, yea the BRZ is light, but an extra 220hp in that little Yaris would leave most cars in the dust..

 

maybe this is the next evo's inspiration. diesel and hybrid combo or petrol and hybrid combo!

^^^ sick

 

I think my heart just sank into my A$$. Seriously a YARIS is going to out do the Evo?! No, Im going to stick with the idea that Mitsubishi has taken forever because they are going to blow our minds. Come on Mitsu don't fail us now, Keep the Evo at the top!

Though I wont lie that Yaris does look pretty ****ing sick.
