From tracks to avenues Motorsports has always been made for the strong willed. The idea of giving it everything you have in the spirit of competition, but knowing that the odds of getting nothing in return can be very daunting to some. But the Lancer Evolution was created under such circumstances, for exactly that purpose. Developed with the kind of performance to take on the most demanding tracks around the world, the Lancer Evolution has always prevailed. Its proven competitive heritage did not come easily as minute details were refined relentlessly in every aspect of the car to ensure its uniqueness. With flawless curves commanding its aerodynamics, and the pursuit of perfection being the mantra, the Lancer Evolution is not only a beauty, it is a functional beauty. The dramatic leap forward in performance and technology of the new Lancer Evolution was the result of constant improvements in its evolutionary process. The new Lancer Evolution is driven by cutting-edge technology, and has been developed and honed through Mitsubishi Motors dedicated participation in the global motorsports arena. Everything we've learned, everything we've experienced and everything that we believe in is represented in our production models.

a performers attitude
To outline the core of the Lancer Evolution, one would only need to look at the attributes of the MIVEC turbocharged engine. Made with the finest technology the world has to offer, the all-new aluminium engine contributes to a free-revving character, linear power delivery and wide torque curve. It stays true to its aspiration to compete and perform, thriving to be the best and always aiming for perfection.

4B11 MIVEC Twin Scroll Turbocharged Engine Powered by a 4-cylinder, 16-valve, DOHC 2.0-litre MIVEC turbocharged engine that generates an impressive 295PS@6,500rpm, the Lancer Evolution deserves its recognition amongst the best. The bore and stroke are both measured at 86mm respectively, forming a

Mitsubishi Innovative Valve-timing Electronic Control (MIVEC) System The intelligent MIVEC system is capable of controlling the overlap between the intake and exhaust valves, via advancing or retarding their movements, to create improved torque for quicker starts and a more pleasant journey. The uniqueness of the MIVEC system really lies in its ability to control both

intake and exhaust while others generally could control only one. Furthermore, the control over the intake and exhaust valves is completely independent of each other allowing the system to deliver the best results under various situations.

your intelligent partner

The Super All-Wheel Drive (S-AWC) pioneers a philosophy that was made to exploit every opportunity available to create the finest driving experience. Via complex interactions and integration of Mitsubishi Motors various proprietary technology, it delivers a traction and stability control that is an extension to the drivers intent. Simply said, it is your intelligent partner.

Active Center Differential (ACD) By varying the torque split between the front and rear, ACD provides an optimal balance between traction and steering response that is faster and greater than standard differentials. It also features 3 operating modes: TARMAC : for dry, paved surface GRAVEL : for rough, uneven surface SNOW : for slippery, low-traction driving conditions.

Active Yaw Control (AYC) AYC helps by controlling the torque split between the rear wheels to enable enhanced traction and limited vehicle yaw, allowing better cornering dynamics and accomplishing the exact brake force required.

the unique shift

Whether it is a smooth and soothing drive that you are demanding or a flamboyant twist around downtown, TC-SST lets you

move however you want. This is because Mitsubishi Motors never forgot what driving is supposed to be: fun.

Twin Clutch Sport Shift Transmission (TC-SST) It brings together an integration that most drivers could only dream about. The luxury of a fully automatic transmission for pleasurable drives at one end, complete with a transmission that can match the standards demanded for competitive driving, it is the perfect shift no other could offer.

TC-SST Control Mode Demand for the finest and you might just get it. By switching between different control modes, the Lancer Evolution instantly understands the driving experience that you are looking for. NORMAL MODE For everyday town driving, it uses relatively low shifting speeds for a smoother drive and better fuel efficiency. SPORTS MODE Faster shifting points coupled with quicker shift settings, this mode is ideal for handling winding mountain roads. SUPER SPORTS MODE WARNING: This mode offers the fastest shifting point and allows the engine to

* To activate Super Sports Mode, the TC-SST Control Mode switch must be pressed for 3 full seconds. This can only be done when the car is stationary or driven below 10km/h.

Magnesium Paddle Shifters Conveniently located behind the steering wheel, the paddle shifters give you the feel and control of manual shifting, without ever requiring you to take your hands off the wheel or your eyes off the road.

specialized footwork
Designed to sustain a diverse mix of terrains and road conditions, the body structure was made to withstand the worst it could offer. Backed by trials and tribulations of competitive race conditions, the Lancer Evolution provides you the edge of sure-footed stability and predictable response. Advanced Suspension for Optimized Stability Featuring an inverted MacPherson strut front suspension and a multi-link rear axle, complete with front and rear stabilizer bars, this footwork is made with an intention to uphold the demands of race-level handling, with emphasis given to improve stability.

High Performance Brembo Brake System With massive 18-inch ventilated discs honed by 4 piston calipers at the front and 2 piston calipers at the rear, the Lancer Evolution offers an impressive combination of massive stopping power, reduced resistance and an enhanced pedal feel. Moreover, it also comes with Electronic Brake - force Distribution (EBD).

enhanced safety
The euphoric performance of the Lancer Evolution is a proud heritage to adopt, but Mitsubishi Motors has never neglected the true importance in delivering an exceptional driving experience: to provide the utmost sense of security and ensured safety for passengers to arrive safely at their destination.

PASSIVE SAFETY
Reinforced Impact Safety Evolution (RISE) The exclusive body design uses high-tensile steel and highly rigid frame beams to create a protective environment surrounding the occupants. Not only does this deflect off direct collision energy around and away from the passengers, it also acts in cooperation with front and rear crumple zones to absorb and dissipate collision energy.
High Rigitidy Body

7-Airbags System To ensure the safety of passengers, Mitsubishi implemented an all-round safety system that has complete airbag protection coming from the front, side and also curtain of the car. To push boundaries even further, an additional knee airbag is placed to stabilize the leg and lower body of the driver in the event of an accident.

ACTIVE SAFETY
Adaptive Front-lighting System (AFS) with High Intensity Discharge (HID) Headlamps With this innovative lighting system, the bi-xenon headlamps illuminate your direction of travel as you steer into corners, providing additional lighting that would yield better view angles for the driver.

inside the doors and turning them into speaker boxes. Thanks to Digital Signal Processor (DPS), the system delivers crystal-clear sound and awesome deep bass notes.

High Contrast Meter For accurate measurements and best clarity, the high contrast meter features a display that truly bedazzles. The illuminations and contrast are toned to allow drivers to gauge hold of information on hindsight. Furthermore, just by looking at it is enough to send adrenaline rushing.
