Does anyone know how to mod Hybrid?

 

[DBL R]

wow that is so dumb

 

[Cataclysm]

I can't believe they are saying Hybrid only! Shouldnt that just be an option? Lame....

 

[EvoXgsrNY]

Plus hybrids are heavier and more expensive do to super pricey battery and super heavy tranny! This whole concept is FTMFL!!!!!!

 

[LVSBB6]

Glad I bought a X.

People are going to be real mad, but knowing mitsubishi...they can't fuck up the evo that bad

 

[laddyaddy]

I'll believe it when I see it...

 

[►EvolutionX◄]

Glad I got my evo when I did, an evo heavier than the 10? doesnt sound like a good idea.

Bingo. This can be good or bad, but as mixed as my feelings are, I have to give mitsu the benefit of the doubt here to at least some extent.

I think they last longer than that anymore. Besides, tech will continue to improve by the time the XI comes out.

dumb....

id love to buy a hybrid if it could perform like a real evo, give me 0-60 in 5seconds, a great AWD system, and 25/30mpg, who cares if it has a "hybrid" badge on the back

 

[xbox4414]

dumb....

Says the guy that owns a Evo that uses a automatic transmission. Without changes in style and technology you would not have the SST.
