The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, a legendary sports sedan born from the homologation requirements of rallying, reached its fourth and fifth iterations in the late 1990s. The Lancer Evolution IV, released in 1996, built upon its predecessor's success with refined styling, improved handling, and a more powerful engine. It featured a new, wider body, a revised suspension system with larger brakes and upgraded suspension components, and a turbocharged 2.0-liter 4G63 engine producing 272 horsepower. Inside, the Evo IV offered a driver-focused interior with Recaro bucket seats, a sports steering wheel, and a sporty instrument cluster.

The Lancer Evolution V, launched in 1998, further enhanced the model's performance and driving dynamics. It introduced a powerful new AYC (Active Yaw Control) system that actively controlled the torque distribution to the rear wheels, resulting in superior handling and cornering capabilities. The Evo V boasted a revised engine with a larger turbocharger and intercooler, boosting output to 280 horsepower. Other notable updates included a new six-speed manual transmission, a revised rear suspension, and a revised front bumper design. Both the Evo IV and Evo V were highly praised for their exceptional handling, performance, and rallying success. They solidified the Lancer Evolution's reputation as a true performance icon, adored by enthusiasts and feared by competitors alike.
