Could this be the ultimate in practicality and performance? Spotted on test in Japan, it's Mitsubishi's soon-to-be-launched Evolution IX Estate - and Auto Express's spy photographers got the first-ever pictures.
Making a surprise debut on a wet Tsukuba race track near Tokyo, ahead of its unveiling next month, the newcomer completed three fast laps before disappearing from view. Sources said the car was undergoing its final phases of testing and running back-to-back with the saloon to establish a series of quick lap times for comparison.
At the end of the day, Mitsubishi's research and development test team declared the results were far closer than expected. Originally, they'd anticipated the estate's extra 100kg bulk would add at least two seconds' time difference around the two-kilometre track.
But the gap was less than one second. According to a spokesman, the carrier's rear end actually improved its weight distribution, which gave better traction than the saloon.
Just 2,500 Evo IX Estates are to be made, and the car will only be available here as a grey import priced from around £20,000. It shares the same chassis, six-speed manual gearbox and 2.0-litre turbocharged engine as the saloon. Expect a 0-60mph sprint time of around five-and-a-half seconds.</div>

Yah, we had the Legnum for the galants, a VR4 Legnum at that. So maybe its not that surprising that they came out with a Evo Wagon. Wish they would have done it sooner, probablywould have looked cooler with earlier models.
I dont like the taillights on this wagon though, remind me of a Volvo or something...
7g for life!
yeah those tails are very volvo-like
but as a whole i like it. i think my dog would enjoy that better than the sedan. Its kinda what i always pictured my girlfriend driving when ever we get married and start a family. an awd turbocharged grocery getter that puts the rest of the soccer moms to shame. F a minivan...

So when are they starting to take away doors instead of adding??? I mean we need a coupe with the EVO drivetrain for Mitsu's sake!!!
If they need a wagon, they got the Outlander with the 4g63T, why do they need an EVO wagon in the line :puzzled1:
It only makes sense to make the EVO version. I saw one one the Belt Parkway, but it was'nt the EVO. It was just the regular Lancer. I never knew Mitsubishi made a wagon version.
