Mitsubishi's 'FTO' Named '94-'95 Japanese Car of the Year!

In December 2nd, the Japanese Car of the Year Executive Committee announced the selection of Mitsubishi Motors Corporation's sports car 'FTO' as the '1994-1995 Japanese Car of the Year.' The reasons cited for this selection were that apart from its superior performance as a sports car, the FTO had a good chassis function and used an advanced INVECS-2 Sports model automatic transmission. The FTO's cost of between 1.66 million and 2.397 million yen also received a high evaluation. In recent years award winners have all been sedans. The FTO is the first sports car to win this award since Toyota's MR2 in 1984.
