Posted on:- Jun 08 2007 : Mitsubishi Montero
Popularly known as the big Pajero, Hindustan Motors (a CK Birla Group Company) and Mitsubishi have made a comeback with a new product to rub shoulders with their competitors. This time, it is with a bigger punch -- the Montero. It is a huge SUV loaded with features and competes with the big boys. The Montero is a serious contender for Toyota Land Cruiser Prado, Ford Endeavour and Nissan X-Trail. The Montero comes packed with All-Wheel Drive , a powerful engine, gear differentials, stability control and lots of electronic gadgetry to assist the driver in crucial driving conditions.

Posted on:- Jun 08 2007 : Mitsubishi-Lancer
The Mitsubishi Lancer was quite the standard of the class at one point, but now, it has not only been outshone by competitors both above and below it, but the premium C-segment it used to rule has pretty much disappeared. Mitsubishi has made some changes, but the Lancer has started to fall behind more modern entries.:
Design, Engineering and Interiors:
The Lancer is a genuinely clean, good-looking design, understated and handsome unlike many Japanese and Korean designs, which tend to look rather confused. The original slimline headlamps were replaced by larger, ear...
