To be honest, we don’t know why manufacturers took so long to introduce a plug-in hybrid SUV in Canada. Stuffing such a powertrain in a car is obviously a good idea, but the fuel savings aren’t all that high, as today’s sedans and hatchbacks are already very efficient to begin …

When I look at Mitsubishi’s current model lineup, nostalgia inevitably kicks in after thinking about the great products that were engineered and sold by what is one of Japan’s oldest automotive manufacturers.

We finally have an answer to the mysterious teaser released by Mitsubishi a few weeks ago as the new MI-TECH Concept made its global debut at the 2019 Tokyo Auto Show. Reinforcing its commitment to electrification, particularly plug-in hybrids, the Japanese automaker says this small-sized SUV concept—which definitely takes a …

Seeing how unpopular the Mirage G4 is, the new president and CEO of Mitsubishi Motors of Canada, Juyu Jeon, wisely decided to axe the diminutive sedan—a good news for dealers, which had to maintain a few units in their inventory. So, 2019 will be the final model year for the …

Fueled—or should we say energized?—by the new federal rebate of $5,000 introduced on May 1, electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles sales in Canada are exceeding 40,000 units so far in 2019.
