Based off the current Mirage... Perhaps the future Evo?? We'll see.

damn already comes with ohlins nice! it would look better with an evo x front end though
I'm sorry but that thing is ugly and gay looking ! I'm not a fan of tiny hatchback cars, Looks like a fixed up fiat.
I like the specs, however I'll wait for mirage facelift when time comes. Usually have their better looking design after the 2nd facelift (Eclipse 2ga>2gb Evo 8> 9).
at least mitsubishi did what they know almost all the time do right AWD 4 Cylinder Turbo :)
Citroen is calling for their car back. If this is the next evo I give up all hope lol
well it looks like an Evo powertrain stuffed into a Mirage. good proof of concept, highly doubt that's the next Evo. but at least thats hope that Mitsu hasnt given up on a high performance turbo AWD concept.

I think it looks pretty damn badass... Obviously it was designed to compete in rally events, pretty sure the production nodel would be vastly different.
A Mirage with Evo bits sounds awesome... I mean, arent USDM Mirages basically Lancers?? Not far fetch'd to say this may be the next Evo since mitsu is heading away from the Lancer name.
I'll take this over the fiesta thats for sure
I think the Fiesta got my money on this one, just for how that r5 looks like
Id rather spend few more extra to make that fiesta look better and maybe
a little faster...

Follow me ill follow back
you guys do know that's comparing a WRC car to a street car? if anything the R5 reminds me of the Citroen WRC:
a more apt comparison between the R5 and Fiesta would be this way:
R5
Fiesta WRC
personally yes, the fiesta WRC looks better than the R5, but what can you do? manufacturers are basing their WRC effort on smaller and smaller vehicles, so you have to shoehorn the engine and drivetrain to whatever it is in your lineup that meets the performance criteria. it used to be the Lancer, then the Cedia-based chassis and it eventually disappeared after the Evo IX since Mitsubishi didn't compete after that. sure there were Evo X rally cars, but they were not full-blown WRC machines like the R5. Ford even dropped the Focus back then and had to go to the smaller Fiesta to compete with the smaller offerings from other manufacturers. they simply swapped the drivetrain and engine from the Focus WRC to the Fiesta.
I'm just glad Mitsubishi's at least showing some interest in competition again. after all it is this sort of competition that bred the Lancer Evolution. so what if it looks ugly? if it kick starts the next Evo i'm all for it. :)

,I'm just going based on the 4 door option lolol
lol yeah. sucks that the actual Mirage and actual Fiesta are worlds apart
Sportback Evolution MR
I'm sorry but every one of those hatchbacks are gay as shit !! The r5, fiesta, etc are all gay. Might as well go get a gay little Kia or even a volt an fix that up cuz they all look like a house wife car and anyone would look gay in one.
Looks like the Nissan leaf. Lol
Evo 9 > the rest
That's it I've lost all respect for MITSU Subaru has one the battle. I hope mitsu just goes out of business instead of trying to come up with new ideas because they just suck. Lets remember them for the EVO 1-10 and my microwave and call it a day.

I agree with Macky on this one. As much as it is just a new citroen with some mitsu badging and guts I am thankful they haven't closed the door on performance.
