Whether you’re navigating city streets or heading off for a weekend drive, it offers the perfect mix of comfort, versatility, and control.

The Lancer Sportback’s design captures attention without shouting for it. Its sculpted profile, confident stance, and signature front grille create a look that’s both timeless and purposeful. The five-door layout adds a layer of convenience, blending the aesthetics of a sedan with the practicality of a hatch. This makes it an ideal choice for drivers who want the sporty edge of a compact car while still having room for luggage, groceries, or weekend gear.

Inside, the cabin feels immediately welcoming. The driving position is supportive and thoughtfully arranged, with intuitive controls and excellent visibility. The dash and console feature Mitsubishi’s characteristic simplicity – everything is right where you need it. The materials are well-finished for its class, giving the interior a sense of quality that’s designed to last. There’s ample head and legroom for both front and rear passengers, making longer trips comfortable for everyone on board.

Under the bonnet, the 2.0-litre petrol engine offers a balance of efficiency and responsive power. Paired with a smooth CVT automatic transmission, it provides an effortless and composed drive through traffic or on open highways. The Lancer’s suspension tuning strikes a fine balance – firm enough for confident cornering, yet forgiving enough to absorb everyday bumps and uneven roads. It’s a car that feels planted, stable, and secure – an ideal companion for Melbourne’s ever-changing driving conditions.

Safety has always been a strong point in the Lancer range. This model comes equipped with multiple airbags, ABS brakes, traction control, and stability control to give you peace of mind on every journey.

It’s the kind of car that earns your confidence, not just when it’s new, but year after year of dependable service.

One of the standout features of the Sportback is its practicality. The rear seats fold down flat, revealing an impressive amount of boot space for its size.
