Managing Director, Jim Tyrrell, has hailed Mitsubishi’s New Lancer range as a “revolution” for the marque, with its sporty styling, keen pricing and motor sports “halo” provided by the eagerly awaited Lancer Evolution X (ten). Even though the new Lancer retains the same name as the previous model, this is where the similarities end. The vehicle is based on Mitsubishi’s ‘Project Global’ platform, as is the new Lancer Evolution X and the New Outlander.

This tenth generation of Lancer has been priced in the heartland of the C segment even though it is bigger and better equipped than its mainstream competitors. Sharper handling, better safety features, crisp styling and cutting edge technology all underline the car’s sporting credentials.

The Lancer Evolution, in all its incarnations has established itself as a global performance car icon, providing “supercar slayer” performance at a fraction of supercar pricing.

Lance Bradley, Mitsubishi’s Sales & Marketing Director remarked that, “The new Lancer Evolution X takes a huge leap forward in overall capability with significant gains in handling, dynamics, comfort and technology. At the same time, the driver still gets the kind of thrilling turbo engine performance that has made the model a legend around the world.”
