GHK Motors Sdn Bhd officially unveiled three new Mitsubishi models today to kick-start to a brand new year. These three new MY14 models consist of the ¹NEW Mitsubishi Lancer EX 2.0, ²NEW ASX and ³NEW Pajero Sport Facelift.
NEW MY14 Mitsubishi Lancer EX 2.0
Sport goes beyond styling or specifications, for us, it redefines a way of living and not only that, it shows how you announce your existence in this world. Nearly four decades of sports sedan evolution coupled with a passion for sporty excitement that never fades, ladies and gentleman, the Lancer EX embodies all these pleasures which can only be found behind the wheel.
This model has been holding off for production for quite some time due to the fact that Mitsubishi Motors Company (MMC) was more focused on the production of their SUVs in the past year or so. Moreover just recently, they introduced its most fuel efficient eco-friendly sedan, the Mitsubishi Attrage. So it’s fair to say that within this long layoff, the new Lancer EX 2.0 liter, with a 18-inch alloy wheels, has not only evolved more advanced and technical, but it’s only justifiable that it will label itself as one of the most competitive selling mid-size sedan in its class.
