Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X pricing & specifications

With Subaru's new STi out an about (expect our full review on that tomorrow night), Mitsubishi Australia is working overtime to bring its new halo car, the Evo X, to Australia.


So far the rumours have been wild and a little over the top. We are certain that the WRX competitor, the Lancer GSR will use the EVO X engine and the EVO IX drivetrain, but details on the EVO X itself have been non-existent.

Thankfully our friends over at Evolution OZ have got hold of all the specifications plus pricing for the new Evo range.

The range will start form $59,490 for the five-speed manual while the dual-clutch DSG like gearbox will set you back an extra $5,000 ($64,490). There is also an optional Performance Pack for $5,500.

The top it all off- the Lancer Evolution MR will retail for $71,690 - a good $7,200 more than the SST Evo X. However for that extra $7,000 you get Bilstein front and rear shock absorbers, Eibach front and rear springs, unique brembos for the front, BBS 18" forged alloy wheels (standard Evos get ENKEI 18s), HID headlamps, scuff plates, leather seat trim and heated front seats.

Power is also above the previous report of 209kW. The Evo X Aussie spec will have 217 kW power @ 6500 rpm and 366 Nm torque @ 3500 rpm. This is in comparison to its Subaru nemesis which has 221kW and 407Nm of torque.

No performance figures have been published for the Mitsus yet.

Mitsubishi has undercut Subaru by $500 for the entry level Evo, however the STi gets a six-speed gearbox instead of the five-speed found in the Evo (although we love the five-speed in the Evo). The STi range tops at $64,990 for the Spec-R which receives unique wheels and recaro seats.

The selling point for the new EvoX will undoubtedly be the new SST gearbox as its direct competitor is only available as a manual.
