2009 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X review


Recommended Posts

Mitsubishi’s Lancer saga began 16 years ago and since then it has firmly established itself as a performance oriented mid-size sedan with a heroic big brother in the form of the Lancer Evolution.

2009 Mitsubishi LancerThe range topping Lancer Evolution X looks almost like the Lancer EX but that’s where similarities end. The Evolution X has a potent two-litre turbo engine which delivers 291 bhp and 366 Nm of torque to all four wheels via a six-speed manual or automanual transmission. The Lancer Evolution X also features Mitsubishi’s propriety Super All-Wheel Control (S-AWC) drive system, Active Centre Differential (ACD), 4-wheel drive, Active Yaw Control (AYC) rear differential, Active Stability Control (ASC) and ABS brakes.

The Evo is one rapid car and does 0-100 kph in about 4.7 seconds which is good enough to please most speed buff. The Evo rides on standard 18-inch Enkei alloys with Bilstein and Eibach BBS alloys available as options. Massive power needs big stopping power which is why the Evo comes with Brembo four-piston calipers in front and two-piston calipers in the rear. Safety wise, the Lancer Evolution X package has more kit than the Lancer EX and comes with side-impact air bags, side curtain air bags and a knee air bag for the driver.

2009 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo has a long-standing rivalry with the Subaru Impreza WRX Sti.
