Evo Concept X
AFTER YEARS OF CAREFUL TWEAKING OF THE LANCER EVOLUTION, Mitsubishi unveiled the Concept X at Tokyo. Though only a little different from the Concept Sportback first seen at Frankfurt, the X in the title marks it squarely as the Evo X.
The X will still run a good old 2.0 turbo, now with over 300 hp thanks to MIVEC variable valve timing and lift, but an all-new chassis, a decent interior, a paddle-shift sequential manual, and an underbody diffuser are all additions to the X that should hit production lines as a 2008 model.
