Concepts debut

Among these spearheaded by its award-winning 380 sedan is the all-new Triton ute cabriolet concept colt CZ3 Tarmac model, the latest Lancer Evo IX, a piping hot turbo five-door Colt Ralliart and another force-fed Colt coupe-cabriolet.

Other Queensland debuts include the interesting "i" car, Mitsubishi's new small vehicle and the limited edition Pajero VR-X.

After making its world debut at the Tokyo Motor Show late last year, the "i" car has been brought to Australia to gauge its potential as a future production model.

Just released in Japan the mini car is said to be innovative, imaginative and intelligent – hence the name.

It has a three-cylinder intercooled turbo-charged variable valve timing engine housed in the rear midship which is a first for a Mitsubishi.

Ride and handling is helped by the location of the wheels at each corner of the car.

The "i" measures 3395mm in length, 1475mm wide and has a 2550mm wheelbase.
