Mitsubishi has released images of a near-production Lancer Evolution X, based closely on the Prototype X concept car unveiled earlier this year.
Changes from the concept include less aggressive wheels, regular fog-lights instead of LEDs, a slightly revised grille, a different front fascia, simpler side mirrors, and headlights and taillights with amber indicators.
Described as an exterior study model, the car pictured is very close � if not identical � to the car that will be in show rooms early next year. The final production version will be on display at the Frankfurt Motor Show.
The new Lancer Evolution features Mitsubishi�s S-AWC traction and handling system, which integrates the control of drive torque and braking management with the four-wheel drive system.
Other technologies featured in the new model include a new lightweight and high-performance 2.0-liter turbocharged MIVEC engine with aluminum cylinder block and a 6-speed automated manual transmission.
