After almost a decade since its first appearance on the market, the Lancer received a final facelift before it was completely changed in When Mitsubishi introduced the Lancer in , nobody thought that the carmaker would keep it into production for such a long time.
But the struggling Japanese carmaker couldn't afford to change it. Its finances were hit hard during the world fina The new Lancer Ralliart from Mitsubishi was first introduced at the Paris Motor Show along with its Sportback Ralliart brother and represents a more affordable version of the Lancer Evolution X model. The car boasts distinctive exterior features like exclusive air scoops on the bonnet, exclusive alloy wheels and a small rear diffuser.
It features a de-tuned Evo X turbocharged 2. Unveiled in at the Detroit Motor Show, the seventh generation of the Mitsubishi Lancer marked the first generation that was named Lancer all over the world. Showing a clear kinship to the Lancer Evolution, the Lancer Ralliart model sports its own aggressively styled front bumper and rear bumper cover and dual outlet exhaust.
The lightweight aluminum ducted hood delivers cooling air to the turbocharger and vents engine heat. The Lancer Ralliart inherits not only key technology from the Lancer Evolution, but also the core values that have made that model synonymous with thrilling performance.
The key difference between the models lies in their purpose: Lancer Ralliart is optimized for exhilarating everyday driving while the Lancer Evolution is the brand's ultimate handing machine. The Ralliart engine employs a smaller, single-scroll turbocharger compared to the twin-scroll turbo used in the Evolution engine.
The intake tract and airbox are unique to the Ralliart, as is the smaller intercooler. With nearly lb. As in all Lancer engines, the Mitsubishi Innovative Valve-timing Electronic Control MIVEC system controls valve timing on both the intake and exhaust camshafts to optimize performance at all engine speeds. The TC-SST allows the driver to manually shift using the console shifter or the Sportronic steering wheel magnesium-alloy paddle shifters, or select fully automatic operation.
As mentioned, there are two operational modes, Normal and Sport. Using an electronically controlled multi-plate clutch, ACD distributes drive torque between the front and rear wheels in response to driving conditions.
The system is controlled by the AWC computer, which takes input from a variety of engine and wheel speed sensors G-force sensors and steering angle sensor information. The ACD provides an excellent balance between steering response and traction characteristics and allows the driver to set system response parameters using a "Tarmac, Gravel, Snow" selector. A helical limited-slip front differential and a mechanical limited-slip rear differential help keep traction applied during hard acceleration and through cornering maneuvers by controlling side-to-side torque distribution.
The foundation for the Lancer's inherently sporty responsiveness - and for sports car handling in the Evolution and Ralliart models - is the performance-engineered global platform that also underpins the Mitsubishi Outlander SUV.
Lancer's highly rigid unibody structure, which makes extensive use of high-strength steel, allows for sport-oriented suspension tuning while also providing a compliant ride. The Ralliart shares the body structure with the GTS model but features its own unique chassis tuning. Evos come with disc brakes on all 4 wheels, whereas the normal Lancer is front discs, rear drums. Evos have a different transaxle because they are all wheel drive. The Lancer is front wheel drive.
The compression ratio is turned up to Now you have an Evo capable of making more than 2, horsepower. It also revs to over 13, rpm, which makes for a hilarious view during part of the video. The Evo VI Extreme is the rarest Evo of them all, with only 29 being built, which also makes it one of the most collectible. It was built by Ralliart UK and launched in Power and torque depend on the market but all versions will have at least PS kW; hp. JDM version , the American market version will have slightly more….
