The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X was the final version of the Evo -- the end of the line. Today I'm reviewing the Evolution X, and I'm going to show you all the quirks and features of the Lancer Evo; then I'm going to drive the Lancer Evo X and show you what it's like on the road.

Everything you said before the 17 minute mark is true and works in my favor. It keeps the casual people away from this car, which is already rare to begin with. Many people will track or do performance driving with these cars, which is the way it should be. Sure, you can modify for show/looks, but as you mentioned, there is only so much you can do with a Lancer interior before it gets old/boring. No need to find an 8/9, the interior is even worse and don't even start talking about safety lol. I own a modded 9 and use it primarily for autocross or quick weekend drives to keep things moving. If I had to drive this thing every day, I would kill myself. At the same time, I would not sell it for anything, it really is that great.
As a 2008 Evo X owner from the UK; I can happily say, "What a cock".
I have a 2015 evo x mr un modified if you ever wanna review it HMU
Why would they bother with equipping the Evo with special steering wheels, buttons and door panel materials when they know every single one's going to be stripped out of all that for weight saving when modifying the car for rallies and the steering wheels are going to be replaced with some MOMO racing versions.
My evo has the door step emblems and it’s a 10
my lancer doesn't have a key hole in the boot nor does it even have a hole in that location. Its operated via the key or from inside the vehicle.
“Mitshibeeshi” hahahahha
YOU forgot that one of the features in the exterior of the car is the front and rear fenders that are wider than the regular Lancer
My next car. Evo X.
So basically the vehicle in Gta V..EPIC
Can't wait for a Mirage Evolution
The 5-speed manual is sad.... understandable in early 2000s, but not for this car.
Only shame it wasn't a Evo IX. Good vid though and thank you to the owners for not modifying it. You have maintained the sheep white
3:28 no not really, they went bankrupt
How to own an evo: 1. Buy the lancer 10 2. Buy the evo badge 3. Buy strong glue 4. Enjoy
Gives an Evo X a handling score of 6/10...meanwhile, actual drivers like Jeremy Clarkson calls the 10 one of the best handling cars of all time. Gotta take these reviews with a grain of salt I guess lol.
If you have a stock evo 9 please let Doug review it.
That Evo has been modified! Recaro ended the partnership with Mitsubishi in 2013. meaning the 2104 and 2015 models had non Recaro seats. Unless they had some leather Recaros held back for the ssl package maybe?
You have to praise Mitsubishi for making a sportscar in the same factory line that they make all their other cars. It was just as simple as pushing a button and then you got a Evo out of a standard Lancer, no matter how cheap things may look. This is a car that will kill your Ferrari if you sleep on it. From the outside (and inside too hahahaha) still looking a family compact sedan. Ultimate Sleeper, maybe?
if i could earn a dollar everytime he said .. THIIIS
All of the Mitsuibishi vehicles were drawn by a single designer cause they all look the same, don't matter SUV, sedan, crossover, all the same.
Mitsubishi said Fuck it.... Hatchback
didn’t they only change the front bumper from the Evo 8 to the Evo 9?
Mitsubishi company kills Evo. This this is Sparta!!
My wife owned an FQ 360 with flappy paddle trans, but replaced the exhaust with an Akrapovic set because "it doesn't sound like a rally car", we rallied it around the Scottish highlands and British B roads for years but running costs on that thing were CRAZY. We got a brand new BMW M2 and it's a lot cheaper to run and keep, but we miss those HKS turbos. That one looks like a very low end evo x, not the all bells and whistles of the higher FQ levels.
I have a built evo 8 but I’m in New Jersey
My Evo does NOT have that crazy trunk popper,lol.
Is no one gonna talk about how similar this is to kuruma gta v
You sounds like my “wife” man. I am not even married. It’s an Evolution. You get it for what it is.
Love them. They're probably every 200 - 300 cars you see here (New Zealand) but when you do see an original they stand out a lot because theyre sleeper-car beast-mode!
The dual clutch in the Evo is really cool
DOUG THATS A KURUMA
I almost got my hands on one. But, they wanted 29k with 99k miles.
Me: No, that's a Karin Kuruma. Can I get it armored?
Dont forget the FQ400 monster
R.I.P Mitsubishi Lancer evo
Wow. Doug gives the Evo X a 6/10 for handling. While driving in the city. In traffic. Mmm... yeah. Doug --- just quit and get a day job, man.
Cheap Lancer car! Yep Douge you said it. These are garbage. I don't know how the hell they got popular. I swear if I was giving the baddest one I would sell it asap. Lol.
evo in cali ??? since when u people drive anything but tesla & prius
That handbrake though
just complained about long suspension on a evo... DOUUUUG
I wasn't aware these even came with a DCT
Why did Mitsubishi quit Rally and why did they stop producing all their desirable cars? No Car goes around corners like an Evo. He knows where you want to go before you do. It drives like on rails.
evo's are red subie's are blue and they both go stututut
No one see it's Gta v car 😭
I assumed Mitsubishi was too cheap to add any badges or fancy stuff to their Evo
Lancer Evo XI: **Is a crossover** Everyone: It's evolving, just backwards
Maine has no mods so there is 2 in the world
Thought: why doesn't Mitsu bring back the Evo as an electric sports sedan?
That aint the 4g63t i prefer review the evo 9 as the king of tuners and rally
Im here because of GTA V. The Karin Kuruma is alive!
Kuruma? Heh
2009 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT has a V6 - 6 speed manual. Why does the Evo have a 5.... Have fun on the highway @4000 RPMs.
Another way to tell the difference between the evo and non evo lancers is the gas lid. The evo is square while the others are a circle. Also the rear quoter panels are different.
He should have mentioned the evo x is the only lancer with a square gas cap cover in this generation. Good way to tell if its a real evo or a riced out lancer
My Evo had a button next to the AWC to spray the intercooler with water shared from the windscreen fluid. Didn't do much but was a cool feature 😄
@Sebastian Marelli nah it was an Evo X 2014 GSR
Must be the Evo VII?
Please do a 2005 Mitsubishi Eclipse!
KURUMA
Chill buddy I own a 2013 MR and let me tell you, with proper maintenance they are just as great! Nonetheless I agree stick shift is where it's at
Everything seems really impressive when you don't have to own it past 10k miles.
After watching Doug reviewed other European premium luxurious cars , watching this one with cheap plastic feels like visiting a $1 store.
Wtf 5 gears, and this leather wrapping of the gear lever looks like out of an old Golf 😅
More like mistubishi cancer evo
I swear Doug only made this video to convince his wife on why they need to invest in an EVO 😉
Mitsubishi should have kept it going. The next model should have been a hatch back. If they gradually transitioned it to a small sport crossover and kept it small and rally-able I think they would be doing quite well.
Wtf
Jajaja i have a 2008 mr completely stock just 30,000 miles
Just love all the negative comments of the American and Europeans who can’t honestly appreciate the essence of this Japanese street/rally car! With the rants and complaints 😂 not many of the compared cars gives you the performance plus the mechanical Engineering under the hood- let’s not talk about the handling! I feel like Doug is complaining a little too much!
Says every single evo modified. Mine is bone stock
Best videos but your rating system sucks. 4/10
Thhhhhhhhhhiss
900 people with ES's got roasted by doug
I was waiting to see how that Sunroofs works :D
Mitsubishi would not makes EVOs again because Mitsubishi makes an engine for a tanks and Mitsubishi makes elevator AC so they not goona makes EVO because of that but i hope one day they makes EVO sgsin
evo IХ ???
I have a 2011 lancer se want to review it?
except the big badge on the steering wheel
People keep on commenting "Doug is that type of guy" while im here amazed on how clean and unmolested the Evo X is
Ain’t this the kuruma in gta 5?
So... The End of EVO?
damn his voice cracks is driving me crazy lol
THIS
This is my dream car. In that color. I want one.
Mitsubishi are a massive engineering concern. I think they're got someone from their fridge and air con division running cars, though.
It would be cool if you had a FQ-360 model
"It's really impressive!" - 19:10 Classic Doug Face
"Didn't fit their product portfolio?" Gotta be their biggest mistake
The thing is these Evo's are too damn expensive, you can get a 2011 335 BMW for $12,000-15,000 and be as fast or even faster and have a better interior
You can either choose between a manual transmission or public transportation
Absolutely. The manual is the way to go. You are spot on. This is such a great and a gorgeous car. It still looks really nice by today's standards.
I wonder who the leftist liberal is that is responsible for canceling the Evo. It's gotta be a leftist liberal, they're the only ones that stupid.
Get a Tesla. Save Earth. In Musk we trust.
Mr DeMuro . I love rally car street versions lot more then racing car sportcar street versions. Why. They are more "sleepers" whit wolf heard and more practical then sportscars + cheaper too. Gravel roads Yes thy are then too when is raods on road work and asphalt is remowed. Here in Estonia is 27 % gravel roads + in sunmmer tramac roads is 10% on road works (total 4.000 miles ) and on county is in durning year 3-4 monts snow and icy roads.
11:37 Rally car street version = back comfort is trhd important and some more AC is more weight and price
07:48 . 2014 year modelis last 5 speed manual "new" car but my 2019 year Dacia Sandero is too 5 speed manual gerabox transmission train.
@Dr. Gaz Matic No perfomance -I buy it by dealer Renault /Dacia dealer with quarantie 5 years /100.00km.
Performance car
I didn't think even know there was a SSL package, thought it was just the SSS package ( sight, sound, spoiler)
Hooooly!!!
i got a es sport as my daily and its a zippy little thing
Is this available in right hand driving side and price of car plzz reply sir ...
I have an X and I LOOOOVE the way it's set up. No frills ... just thrills. When I sit in that thing, I feel it's always ready to go. I didn't buy it for cupholders. I bought it to whoop ass 😃 ... And that it does ... Unmodified 😀
My car 😍
