2010 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback Review2010 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback Review  - Reviews - Mitsubishi Lancer

Some packaging combinations — think wine in a box — are questionable at best, but Mitsubishi's new Lancer Sportback is a combination that's safe to call a success. Blending the sporty shape of a coupe with the functionality of a four-door hatchback, the Lancer Sportback has plenty of style to go along with its versatility. It's also a lot of fun to drive when equipped with the standard manual transmission, making it a legitimate alternative to cars like the Mazda3 and Subaru Impreza.
