Evolution Lancer "9th generation - a complete overview of the car

Japanese car "Evolution Lancer" 9th generationOver its entire period of existence, it has become popular among motorists, not only because of the numerous victories in rally racing, but also because of its beautiful sporty appearance. According to the manufacturer, this generation has been developed taking into account numerous improvements, as a result of which the novelty has become the most reliable among the entire line of Lancers. Well, let's consider how successful the car was for Russian buyers.

Appearance

If we compare the modification of "Evolution" with the model"Lancer" of the same generation, you can see a lot of differences. The latter is a kind of “modest”, which was characterized by a not very expressive appearance.

А «Эволюшн» - настоящий спорт-кар, грозный, dynamic and aggressive. But if we compare this modification with the previous, eighth generation, then any drastic changes can hardly be seen. The main feature of the novelty is the front bumper. It was not altered from the standard Lancer car, so its appearance is quite impressive. Large air intake and strict corner lines are successfully combined with new headlights. The grille is no less aggressive and attractive. A diffuser appeared on the rear of the bumper, and a spoiler painted in the body color appeared on the trunk lid. All this, together with low-profile seventeen-inch discs, makes the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution a real speed conqueror.

Salon

Inside the “Evolution Lancer” happened muchmore changes than outwardly. The first thing you should pay attention to is the new Recaro sports seats. Judging by the results of domestic test drives, their design, as well as the design of rollers for lateral support, does not arouse objections at all. However, if the motorist is going on a long trip, the driver's seat at the Evolution Lancer can tire him a lot, which can't be said about the back row of seats.

The design of the steering wheel and aluminum pedals looks very harmonious, which, in combination with high-quality finishing materials, gives a positive impression of the cabin.

Specifications

Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 9th generationManned with a four-cylinder petrol engine with a capacity of 280 horsepower. According to motorists, this unit was not designed from scratch. As a basis, they took the engine with a car of the 8th generation, having forced it to the necessary power. With regard to transmissions, the buyer could choose either a five-or six-step "mechanics". The manufacturer did not provide for automatic gearboxes, since true sports cars are supplied only with mechanical transmissions. Perhaps the engineers went the right way, because this combination of a 280-horsepower engine and manual transmission developed the car to "hundred" in just 5.7 seconds.

The maximum that could give such a motor, itspeed of 250 kilometers per hour. Despite such indicators of dynamics, everything is in order with the “appetite” of Evolution Lancer. One hundred kilometers the car spends no more than 10.6 liters of gasoline.
