Combine these technologies with the fact that the drive battery powering the e-EVOLUTION CONCEPT is located under the floor, mid-ship of the vehicle, providing a low centre of gravity, and you have a vehicle that is both incredibly stable, predictable and responsive as well. Whether driving around town, on expressways, or winding roads, the fully electric e-EVOLUTION CONCEPT always provides crisp and nimble handling that faithfully mirrors driver intent. Many of these technologies are already available in some form or another in many of Mitsubishi’s current lineup of vehicles. But with the e-EVOLUTION CONCEPT, we have pushed the envelope and taken things even further. The brain of the e-EVOLUTION CONCEPT is an Artificial Intelligence (AI) system that has been designed specifically to heighten the driver’s capabilities. An array of sensors allows the AI system to instantly read changes in road and traffic conditions, as well as the driver’s intent.
Seamlessly coordinating driver intent with vehicle performance, the system supports drivers of all abilities. By making it easier and safer to control the vehicle, the driving experience is brought to a new level. There is also a special coaching function that allows the AI system to educate the driver, and seamlessly enhance their driving skill. After building a profile of the driver’s skill level, the system constructs a training program that provides advice through voice dialogue and a large dashboard display. As a result, drivers of all abilities quickly experience a vehicle that has become an extension of themselves, further enabling future Mitsubishi owners to drive their ambition like never before. Nobel Prize winning physicist Dennis Gabor once wrote that “the future cannot be predicted, but futures can be invented”. With the e-EVOLUTION CONCEPT, Mitsubishi Motors isn’t predicting the future, we’re inventing it.
