Carisma and the Lancer
Is it just me or are the Mitsubishi Lancers and Carismas too alike for their own good. The lights are exactly the same on the rear and the whole back end is more curved than on the Lancer. Surely they don't need two cars that are the same. They even used both cars in the WRC

I'm not 100% sure on the road cars, but the WRCars are both Mitsubishi Lancers, just one is renamed to Carisma. Now the Volvo S/V40 on the other hand, shares the Carisma platform.

The Carisma (sic) and Volvo S40 are also both built in the same factory in the Netherlands.
Also, Trivia Fans, the Lada Samara, Saab 900 Convertible and Porsche Boxster were all concurrently built in the Valmet factory in Finland.

The Carisma and Lancer are two different cars. As Guy said, the Carisma is made in the Netherlands alongside the S/V40 and the Lancer is made in Japan.
