The story

Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X

The Evo line began in 1992 as a way to homologate the Lancer for rallying, and Tommi Mäkinen won four straight drivers’ titles in Evos from 1996 to 1999.

The Evo X arrived on a new platform with a twin-clutch gearbox offered alongside the manual, and production ended in 2016 with a Final Edition.
