Mitsubishi RVR to be launched soon

According to the recent reports, Mitsubishi India is working on its plans to launch the RVR urban crossover in India. However, there are no exact details on the launch date of the car. However, it is expected that the Crossover would hit the Indian turf by the second half of 2011. The RVR would share a similar platform and wheelbase as in Outlander, but would be placed in a segment lower than Outlander.



In terms of design, RVR is going to follow the trail set by its siblings in the company. The ‘shark nosed’ front end and wedge-shaped lights which were seen in the Evo X and the Outlander are some of the basic and the most popular features in Mitsubishi cars and the same are going to be reflected in RVR as well. This compact crossover will be powered by a 147bhp 1.8-litre turbocharged direct-injection diesel engine and would measure 4.3 metres in length.

RVR would be a compact 5 seater crossover with front wheel drive and six speed manual transmission. As the car comes from the Mitsubishi stable, there would be a number of features that would attract the buyers in the segment. Some of the prominent features include electronic stop-start technology, ABS, airbags, audio system with 6 speakers etc. The company officials decline to comment on the expected price range, but it is widely speculated that the car would come with a price tag of Rs. 15 Lakh.
