Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution MR 2010


However, the DE, ES, GTS, and RALLIART models are all essentially the same engine options from 2009. The 2010 MIVEC engines for the Mitsubishi Lancer no matter the option provide power, durability, value, and fuel efficiency. While impressive, these engine choices are no different than those previously available for the 2009 GTS or RALLIART models.

The 2010 GTS model option includes a 168 horsepower 2.4 liter MIVEC engine, while the Mitsubishi Lancer RALLIART boasts a potently powerful intercooled 237 horsepower MIVEC engine respectively. The Lancer GTS and RALLIART models offer engines that answer any demand for considerable power upgrades in comparison with the DE and ES models. MIVEC engines with the Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle standard provide an easy choice for helping the environment without losing out on engine power or craftsmanship. The Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle standard in some states motivated Mitsubishi to craft engines that not only offer Mitsubishi performance, but conform to the standard which is the highest rating available for non-hybrid vehicles.

Both the DE and ES Mitsubishi Lancer models include all-aluminum MIVEC 2.0 liter engines with the choice of 152 or 142 horsepower, the latter only if the Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle version engine is selected. With a 22 to 31 miles per gallon average, a one gallon increase from 2009, the MIVEC (Mitsubishi Valve Timing Electronic Control) engine options for the 2010 Mitsubishi Lancer easily marry performance with the green initiative.

Mitsubishi is addressing the fuel crunch with multiple engine options for the 2010 Lancer model.
