The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution(Evo), was a sports sedan based on the Mitsubishi Lancer. The Evolution was produced by Mitsubishi Motors in Japan, Okazaki, Aichi from 1992 until 2016.
Every Lancer Evolution produced came equipped with a 2.0L 4G63 incline-four engine turbocharged , which is debatable, one of the best tunable engines to have existed, competing with engines such as the 2JZ-Gte, the RB26 and the EJ20.
The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII had a 4-wheel drive system fitted with a 6-speed transmission producing a speed up to 276 horsepower. However sources say that Mitsubishi had already produced cars with more power and that they had been under rating the Evolution VIII official power due to an agreement with an unknown party.
The Evolution VIII was the first Evolution to be sold in the United States of America due to the success of the Subaru Wrx Sti, which was Mitsubishi's largest competitor at rally at the time.
Later the Evolution X was released in 2007. The Evolution X was the 10th generation Evolution to be developed. Production of all Evolutions stopped in May 2016 with a hope of an Evolution XI to be developed.
