Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback  Generations

The five-passenger Lancer Sportback is available in two variants: the front-wheel drive GTS and the all-wheel drive Ralliart. The GTS is powered by a 168-hp 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine, mated to a five-speed manual transmission; a continuously variable transmission (CVT) with Sportronic manual mode and paddle shifters is optional. Ralliart trims boast a 237-hp 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, paired with a 6-speed Twin-Clutch Sportronic Shift transmission (TC-SST) and paddle shifters. The GTS trim is equipped with 18-inch alloy wheels, rear spoiler, automatic climate control, a CD player with MP3 capability and an auxiliary audio input jack; the sporty Ralliart trim adds front and rear limited slip differentials, performance tires and a FAST-key passive entry system, as well as exclusive exterior and interior trim elements. Standard safety features on all Lancer Sportback models include stability and traction control systems, 4-wheel anti-lock disc brakes, active anti-whiplash front head restraints and a tire pressure monitor, along with front, front side-impact, overhead curtain and driver?s side knee airbags.
