Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VII & VIII




Evolution VII was a new, larger car that usedthe same body shape as the CG Lancer. This styling gave superior aerodynamics, as well as engine and brake cooling performance. The mid range torque was boosted to a class topping 383Nm at 3500rpm, while power remained at 206kW at 500rpm.
With such power, strength and performance, the Evolution VII tryly became the rally car to be reckoned with. More importantly a sign of things to come with the launch of the Evolution VIII.
Launched in January 2003, the Evolution VIII saw a dramatic boost in torque, increasing to a blistering 398Nm.
This also included the introduction of Super Active Yaw Control (S-AYC), which doubled the torque transfer between the rear wheals, giving the Evolution VIII even better handling.
