The strikingly styled 2008 Lancer Evolution X showcases new performance and handling technology, including an all-new 291-bhp 2.0-liter turbocharged/intercooled engine and the Super-All Wheel Control dynamic handling system.
S-AWC offers an extraordinary level of control at each wheel, going well beyond the capabilities of other all-wheel drive systems.
Two Lancer Evolution models will be offered in the US market for 2008. Significantly, the newest Lancer Evolution will have less differentiation from market to market than the previous generations.
It blends concept car themes and sound aerodynamic principles while conveying the brand's rally heritage. A shark-nosed front end inspired by jet fighter air intakes, a distinct wedge-like profile and crisp, taut lines highlight the basic new-generation Lancer design.
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution is the newest and most sophisticated version of the legendary high-performance model series that began 16 years ago.
