About Mitsubishi Lancer Evo

The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, commonly referred to as 'Evo,' is a sports sedan based on the Lancer that was manufactured by the Japanese manufacturer Mitsubishi Motors from 1992 until 2016. There have been ten official versions to date, and the designation of each model is most commonly a Roman numeral. All use two-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engines and all-wheel-drive systems.

The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution was originally intended only for Japanese markets, but demand on the "grey import" market led the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution series to be offered through Ralliart dealer networks in the United Kingdom and in various European markets from around 1998. Mitsubishi decided to export the eighth generation Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution to the United States in 2003 after witnessing the success Subaru had in that market with their long-time direct rival, the Subaru Impreza WRX STI.

The tenth and final generation of the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution (Evo X) was launched in Japan in 2007 and overseas markets in 2008. The Evo X was produced for almost ten years until it retired in April 2016.

The first Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution used the 2.0 L turbocharged DOHC engine and AWD drivetrain from the original Galant VR-4 in a Lancer chassis and was sold in GSR and RS models.

The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution is unique among its competitors in the World Rally Championship in that it was a homologated Group A car slightly modified to be able to race competitively against the then newly formed World Rally Car (WRC) regulations from the 1997 season.

The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolutions were successful in WRC Rallies from 1996 to 1999, mostly in the hands of Finnish driver Tommi Mäkinen, clinching driver's titles in four-consecutive seasons from 1996 to 1999 (in Evolutions III, IV, V, and VI), and with the help of teammate Richard Burns in clinching the constructors' championship for the first, and thus far only time in 1998.
