2013 Mitsubishi Lancer EX 1.6 GLX

The Lancer EX 1.6 has the sharp, contender roused plan in advance, the same side profile and different bits. Mitsubishi has precluded the forceful pack and subtle elements however, similar to the front splitters, the passed out grille, the spoiler, and the substantial 18 inch wheels with Ad van A10 tires. Some may discover it a bit plain taking care of getting used to the look of the first, yet I simply consider it a clear canvas for tuners to do with however they see fit.

Inside, very little has changed, aside from the points of interest like the trim hues (not any more silver plastic trim) and additionally the decision of fabrics. The guiding wheel, beforehand wrapped in calfskin, is presently an all urethane undertaking, however a significant number of the force elements stay like the windows, bolts and mirrors. The Rockford Fosgate sound framework that we enjoyed in the Lancer EX GT-A has additionally been supplanted, however this time with a more useful DVD framework with iPod similarity. The specific illustration is the GLX, implying that the DVD amusement framework doesn't get route capacities, however the MX renditions do. 

The enormous contrast, nonetheless, lies at the heart of the Lancer as designers transplanted a littler 1.6 liter MIVEC motor for the 2.0 liter MIVEC in the GT-An (and additionally the now ceased GT) variations. The new 1.6 engine creates a better than average 117 PS at 6000 rpm and 154 Newton meters of torque, and is coordinated with either a 4-rate programmed or -for this situation  a 5-velocity manual.

Driving it around town, it beyond any doubt feels light. Actually, I'd say it didn't lose much regarding saw quickening. Obviously the 2.0L motor has a long leg up on the 1.6, as it has 38 PS all the more, however by and large, the delicacy of the auto -particularly the slimmer wheels and tires- do well to supplement the 1.6 motor's abilities. The 5-velocity manual is great yet a little notch, while the 4-rate auto models we drove before appeared to be really great and smooth.

Mileage has doubtlessly enhanced, particularly in the city as I was getting (full tank to full talk, moderate activity runabout, no travelers) 9.9 kilometers to the liter. On the thruway its really great as well, however the proportions appear to be a touch short by and large. I found that the best economy was yielded on a 80 km/h voyage (rather than the typical 100 km/h) at 14.9 km/l.

The motor isn't the main contrast, as the taking care of has changed a considerable amount. Hurl it into a corner and the Lancer EX 1.6 GLX has recognizably (yet not all that much) more body move than the GT-A. This is ascribed to the milder suspension and the higher profile tires. Obviously, the opposite is valid: with the taking care of traded off, ride solace gets a checked change.

The Lancer EX 1.6 GLX variations are what numerous clients have been searching for; a handy, more moderate, more proficient and more agreeable variant of the revered Lancer EX. Might it be able to be past the point of no return for the EX to join the 1600cc temporary fad, particularly since much fresher models are out in the business sector?
