Mitsubishi launched its Lancer Evolution in 1992. It is the model that originally gave Mitsubishi a path into the World Rally Championship’s Group A class and the SCCA Pro rally Championship. Mitsubishi launched out the Evolution primarily for sale in the Japan market, but crafted on the standard Mitsubishi Lancer saloon.

The car crossed European borders to enter the import market as a prized grey-market import. Mitsubishi realized the interest and quickly paved the way for official imports of the Lancer to the UK in 1998.

It is the very first model with a 5 speed gearbox and a powerful 2.0 litre engine that brought together with a four wheel drive system. The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution could bump out 244bhp which was pretty meaty stuff for a saloon. This model was built alongside the more family orientated Lancer Saloon, like a hot headed big brother. Even though this model is heavier, the power and the handling got better and better until Mitsubishi had literally evolved a cult classic. The Evolution gained respect amongst speed freaks and rally drivers alike and became a successful model in the automobile market around the world.

The Evolution IX launched in 2006 was the last box edged Evo off the production line before the introducing new models. The Evolution IX comes out on the roads with new improvements over the original. It has a new lightweight aluminium roof and a carbon fibre rear wing. The car comes out with an engine with a 2.0 litre turbo with variable valve control, and really kicked in with 345 bhp controlled by a 6 speed sports box. It could take a speed close to 148mph and power from 0-60 in just over 4.2 seconds. The Evolution is smooth to handle making it one of the best handling sports saloons ever made.
