<h2 id="mitsubishi-lancer-evo-viii">Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VIII</h2>

One of the most successful cars of the World Rally in the last ten years.

<figure data-align="right" class="figure" style="float:right"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="resources/MitsubishiLancerEvoVIII.jpg.webp" alt="Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VIII"><figcaption>Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VIII</figcaption></figure> The Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VIII stands out for outstanding maneuverability at high speeds. Considering that we are analyzing a sedan for the streets, this powerful Lancer impacts with its fascinating ability to maintain control in extreme situations. The skid can be controlled to the millimeter.

On the other hand, the small 2,000 cm3 four-cylinder engine drives the **Mitsubishi Lancer** from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.8 seconds — a time comparable to that of many super sports cars. With a power of 271 hp at 6500 rpm and a torque of 273 lbs ft at 3,500 rpm, the Lancer is clearly one of the most agile sedan in the world.
