2010 Mitsubishi Evolution X gets minor updates

By George Skentzos |

Mitsubishi has made a few subtle changes to its 2010 model year Evolution X for the Japanese market.

Already a highly potent machine, the revisions are only minor and includes lighter materials and a new colour display for the instrument cluster.

Outside, the sideskirts have been pumped slightly while the front bumper – which looks identical – weights about 1.5kg less than the current part.

Inside, a new colour LCD display sits between the tacho and speedometer with more functions and improved readability.

The list of changes is completed by improved sound insulation and a few minor interior tweaks.

The revised 2010 Evolution X range also deletes the five-speed manual transmission as an option for the flagship GSR Premium Edition model, leaving only the six-speed twin-clutch SST transmission.

While availability has not yet been confirmed, the 2010 Mitsubishi Evolution X will filter down to the Australian market next year.

    Where is launch control?

    It must be so depressing to sit on 40km/h when the speedo goes to 300km/h… Its just asking for trouble. I would love to see it selectable between 100/200/300km/h!

    the tacho looks awesome, isn’t the display in the middle usually red? cause that’s just too bright

    red is actually the lowest wavelength so its better on your eyes than other colours. blue by far is one of the brightest and most glaring but looks cool ~

    i think its is an awsomec car,as it always has been,
    after all these years i think there should have at least more power added to it
    also make it more different looking then the lancer espcially there rear of the car its not as appealing as the 06 version,but otherwise the vo is still my favorite car ever
