The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X, produced from 2008 to 2015, marked the tenth generation of the iconic Lancer Evolution performance sedan. The Evolution X was a significant departure from its predecessors, adopting a more sophisticated and refined approach while still maintaining the raw performance that the series was known for. It was underpinned by a new platform, featuring a wider track and longer wheelbase, contributing to a more stable and predictable handling experience. The exterior design, penned by Mitsubishi's design studio in California, showcased sharper lines and a more aggressive stance. Under the hood, the Evolution X retained the iconic 4B11 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, but it was extensively reworked to produce an impressive 291 horsepower in stock form. The power was delivered through a 5-speed manual transmission or a 6-speed twin-clutch Sportronic Shift Transmission (SST), offering drivers a choice between pure driving engagement and effortless gear changes.
The Evolution X further solidified its reputation for performance by boasting a comprehensive suite of advanced technologies. These included a sophisticated all-wheel drive system known as S-AWC (Super All-Wheel Control) which meticulously monitored and controlled the power distribution to each wheel, optimizing traction and handling. The active center differential, an electronic rear differential, and the electronically controlled damper system worked in concert to deliver exceptional grip and agility, allowing the driver to exploit the Evolution X's full potential on the track or on challenging roads. The Lancer Evolution X marked a significant step forward in the series' evolution, combining its renowned performance with a refined and driver-focused approach. It became a highly sought-after vehicle for its thrilling driving experience, iconic status within the performance car segment, and its ability to bridge the gap between everyday driving and track-day performance.
