2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Review, Pictures & Video
Distinctly more attractive than its predecessor, the 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer gets a big makeover after sitting out for the 2007 model year. The sportier, more tech-savvy look for the Lancer appeals more certainly than other cars in its class. Mitsubishi offers this sedan in three trim levels, DE, ES and GTS.
Each trim level features unique seat fabric and trim pieces for the interior. Its clean, straightforward design isn’t as sleek as the exterior, but the up-scale quality is comfortable enough for easy use. The five-seat Mitsubishi sedan has a CD stereo and an optional Navigation and Technology Package for the GTS model.
Each model is equipped with a 2.0-liter I-4 engine, with either 143-hp or 152-hp. It is estimated 21/22 mpg city and 29 mpg highway for the five-speed manual and CVT.
The 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer has front-seat side airbags, a driver’s knee airbag and full-length head curtain airbags. Antilock brakes come standard on ES and GTS models, but are optional on the DE.
Significantly heavier than its predecessor, the 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer allows the driver more confidence whilst on the road. Not feeling particularly quick, excellent grip should be pleasing enough for buyers.
