The eX is powered by front and rear electric motors, which each produce 94 horsepower and are powered by a 45-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion batter. With entirely electric power, this crossover concept is the best of both the eco-friendly world and the crossover world—combining space and no carbon emissions to make it a pioneer in the industry.
The ex Concept’s design hints at a new design language for Mitsubishi
But it isn’t only hinting at the future of Mitsubishi’s electric vehicles—it also showcases the company’s new design language. A revised X-shaped grille (called the Dynamic Shield) adds a more aggressive look to the brand’s traditional styling, with the turn signals and LED running lights placed at the top. The silhouette also features a floating roof, allowing the side glass to wrap around the body.
