MITSUBISHI said its e-Evolution Concept “signals the start of an exciting new era which will see long-term growth and sustainable development for the brand”.

How and why?

The e-Evolution Concept blends Mitsubishi’s signature 4WD electric drivetrain know-how with advanced Artificial Intelligence technology under a low-slung, aerodynamic SUV Coupé shape. So now you know.

Using high-torque and high-performance electric motors, supplied by a high-capacity battery system, the e-Evolution with triple motor 4WD system employs a single motor to drive the front wheels and a new Dual Motor AYC (Active Yaw Control) system to couple two rear motors through an electronically controlled torque-vectoring Active Yaw Control unit.

Still with us?

The brain of the concept is an Artificial Intelligence (AI) system that augments the driver’s capabilities. An array of sensors allows the AI system to instantly read changes in road and traffic conditions, as well as the driver’s intent. The system is said to support drivers of all abilities and by making it easier and safer to control the vehicle.

A special coaching function allows the AI system to transfer knowledge to the driver by building a picture of the driver’s skill level, the system constructs a training programme that provides advice through voice dialogue and a large dashboard display.

And, of course, it has a deployable drone.

Where will we be without deployable drones in the future?
