  STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN, and AMSTERDAM, THE NETHERLANDS, Oct
23 (MARKET WIRE) -- 

Where do you want your new Mitsubishi? That's the key question being asked
in the new pan-European launch campaign developed by LBi Netherlands for
Mitsubishi. The multi-channel campaign invites potential owners to
nominate the location in which they want to receive their brand new
Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback or Colt. On Saturday 29 November, the winners
in all participating European countries will have the cars delivered to
their chosen locations.

    On Your Mark

    www.onyourmark.eu allows entrants to choose and mark their own unique
location on a map of Europe. For the winners, these will be the real-world
places where brand new Mitsubishi Lancer Sportbacks or Colts will be
delivered in spectacular fashion on November 29. Entrants are encouraged
to be as creative as possible in making their marks - the more
imaginative the entry, the greater the chance of winning.

    Japanese game show: Extremely Sponsored by Mitsubishi

    LBi has also developed two online mini-games as part of the integrated
campaign, In 'Lancer Looping' and 'Colt Curling', players experience for
themselves the hilarious, over-the-top chaos of a Japanese game show. The
game shows, 'extremely sponsored' by Mitsubishi, can be played at
www.onyourmark.eu/gameshow

    LBi has been responsible for the entire campaign, including strategy,
concept development, production, media sourcing, seeding and PR. In
addition, LBi will support the participating countries in their
supplementary local activities.

    Walter de Reus, Client Partner at LBi is delighted with what Mitsubishi
and LBi Netherlands have achieved: "This is an exceptional large-scale and
eye-catching campaign. We are very proud of the result and are looking
forward to the moment when the Mitsubishis are delivered throughout Europe
- some of them by helicopter."

    About Mitsubishi Motors Europe

    An offspring of the vast and mighty Mitsubishi group of companies first
started by Yatoro Iwazaki in 1870, today's Mitsubishi Motors Corporation
is one of the oldest Japanese car manufacturers (Model-A in 1917) as well
as one of the most innovative (from the 1936 PX33 - Japan's first 4-wheel
drive vehicle, to the 2009 i-MiEV - the first full-fledged "mainstream"
electric car in the market).

    Today, Mitsubishi Motors is a successful mid-size global operator
(1,400,000 cars a year in average). Mitsubishi Motors Corporation has
manufacturing facilities in over 30 countries, and its sales and
after-sales organization serves more than 170 countries. In 2002,
Mitsubishi Motors Europe (MME) was founded specifically to coordinate
sales and after-sales in Europe.

    Mitsubishi Motors sets as its ideal the synergy between dynamic and
environmental performance, and will continue to develop technologies -
such as the zero-emission i-MiEV electric vehicle - that show as much
care and pleasure for the environment outside as for the occupants within.
