Discover the history
The 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X Group N is a rally car designed to compete in the Group N category, known for its production-based specifications. This model is an evolution of the iconic Lancer Evolution series, showcasing the brand’s dedication to rally racing.
Under the hood, the Lancer Evolution X Group N is equipped with a potent 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, delivering a substantial amount of power and torque. This engine provides the necessary performance for rally racing, allowing the car to excel in various racing conditions.
The car features an all-wheel-drive (AWD) system, a common feature in the Group N class. AWD ensures superior traction and stability on diverse rally surfaces, including gravel and tarmac. This capability is crucial for maintaining control and speed in challenging rally conditions.
Safety is a top priority in rally racing, and the Lancer Evolution X Group N is designed with this in mind. The car’s chassis is reinforced with a roll cage, which enhances safety for both the driver and co-driver during intense rally events.
The suspension system is built for the rigors of rally racing, offering durability and adjustability. Teams have the flexibility to fine-tune the suspension to adapt to different road surfaces and racing conditions.
Aerodynamic enhancements are integrated into the car’s bodywork, including a rear wing and front splitter. These modifications are designed to generate downforce, which in turn enhances stability and grip, allowing for precise cornering and control at high speeds.
Throughout 2008 and beyond, the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X Group N participated in numerous rally events, demonstrating its prowess and capabilities in a fiercely competitive field. This rally car is favored by privateer teams and drivers who appreciate the challenge of Group N racing and the emphasis on stock or nearly stock vehicles. Mitsubishi’s legacy in rally racing and the enduring appeal of the Lancer Evolution series have contributed to the car’s recognition and success in the world of motorsport.
