LOS ANGELES AUTO SHOW
MITSUBISHI EX CONCEPT
The MITSUBISHI eX Concept is a vision
for a unique 100 percent electric-powered
compact SUV aimed at the fast-growing
compact SUV market. It uses Mitsubishi’s
electric-powered technologies and all-wheel
control combined with automated driving,
connected car interfacing and active safety technologies. Together with the reduction
in weight and higher efficiency of the new
EV system, a reduction in the weight of the
body has given the MITSUBISHI eX Concept a cruising range of 400km (248.5 mi-
les). This drivetrain delivers 70 kW (94 horsepower) to both front and rear wheels for
a total output of 140 kW (188 horsepower)
of power. The Twin Motor 4WD drivetrain
incorporates the S-AWC integrated vehicle
dynamics control system that uses braking
to control the front wheels and a transfer
mechanism (Active Yaw Control) that varies torque split between the rear wheels.
With the AYC controlling rear wheel drive
split, the MITSUBISHI eX Concept delivers
handling that faithfully reflects driver intent.
