Mitsubishi Aims to be Electric Car Price Leader

Mitsubishi said to be considering electric version of Lance Evolution after rollout of Outlander PHEV.

Mitsubishi says it is well-placed to offer electric vehicles at an affordable price, as it readies future products without internal combustion power.
