Didn't realise the V6 MIVEC engine didn't actually debut on the FTO, it was on a car called the Mitsubishi Eterna Visage R. It was also in the Galant VX-R and 1994 Emeraude Super Touring R.


Emeraude:


Eterna Visage



This MIVEC engine was available with a modulated displacement option which increased fuel economy by shutting off some of the cylinders when the engine wasn't under load.

Not surprising, the FTO shares a lot of non-engine parts with the Eterna.

Did you know that the MIVEC engine was first made available in a MIVEC?
