General Export model year 2009 LANCER EVOLUTION
Introducing the model year 2009
All-New Mitsubishi LANCER EVOLUTION
for Motor Sport
Mitsubishi Motors proudly announces the further
evolved 09MY All-new Lancer Evolution, a race-
based vehicle primarily designed to compete in
motor sports events throughout the world, including
Europe where Euro 4 emissions regulations are
strictly enforced. With the goal of elevating motor
sports fans’ already extremely high regard for this
rally-inspired legend, enhancements for 2009 focus
on “higher levels of performance and driving quality.”
The new Lancer Evolution features a 4B11 MIVEC
twin scroll turbo engine, the culmination of a long
series of racing engine technology development,
combined with MIVEC technology to optimize intake
and exhaust timing performance. In addition to being
smaller and lighter than current 4G63 MIVEC, the
engine has also been designed with a lower center
of gravity to aid in maneuverability.
1 Overall, the body has been made wider, and with
an expanded tread, giving it a lower, more stable
stance and enhancing the driver’s feeling of control.
To enhance stability and turning capability through
tight curves, the wheelbase has been lengthened
and the front and rear overhangs reduced. The
large rear spoiler adds significant downforce to
the already road-hugging rear tires, with a twisting
shape designed to have a smoothly varying elevation
angle across the center and edge panels.
To further improve cornering and controllability,
the body has been made lighter and more rigid.
Weight reduction has been achieved in part through
the use of aluminum panels in the hood, roof and
front fenders. The front and rear bumper beams
are also made of aluminum which, in addition to
effectively absorbing collision energy, provide
enough weight reduction to significantly reduce
Production will begin in June 2008, with shipment to follow in July 2008.
the vehicle’s moment of yaw inertia for improved
control. Taken as a whole, the result is an advance
in the evolution of high-performance sedans.
Remarks:
Lancer Evolution is geared for competition, it will
neither be warranted nor homologated for general
production.
For each market that the new Lancer Evolution
will be imported to, the regional distributer will
need to acquire the same homologation for it as
the Lancer Evolution IX.
In order to participate in competitions, the vehicle
needs to be warranted to meet FIA regulations.
[Safety warning about the tires]
At the time of shipping, Lancer Evolution is shipped
with racing use in mind (where the tires will be
changed), and only comes equipped with factory
standard temporary tires for carrier purposes.
These tires are strictly temporary and not adequate
for the speed performance of the Lancer Evolution.
If 16" tires are requested, tires will need to be
changed to [92W], which covers the adequate
speed performance. Or, choose the 18" tires
(245/40R18 93Y) which are offered as an option.
Factory-standard tires: 205/60R16 92H (maximum
permissible speed: 210 km/h)
Optional tires [B44]: 245/40R18 93Y (maximum
permissible speed: 300 km/h)
Please note that EU certification was acquired
with [92W] tires (maximum permissible speed:
270 km/h).
Please check with your customer regarding this
matter in order to select the appropriate tires that
meet their needs.
 Exterior Design
General Export model year 2009 LANCER EVOLUTION

New front-end design

The exterior design uses aerodynamics
to create a deep sensation of continuous
movement combined with an image of
stylish boldness. The new Lancer Evolution
features an advanced and aggressive front
face new to Mitsubishi Motors sedans,
combining an inverted-slant nose with a
trapezoidal front grill to achieve efficient
engine cooling with aerodynamic
performance.

New rear bumper design

The lower part of the rear bumper uses a
diffuser form to improve aerodynamics
and give a stylish accent to the rear view.
The rear combination lamps use a kick-form
lens that promotes a smoother airflow.

Optional equipments include

245/40R18 + 18" alloy wheel <ENKEI>
2 (OPT B44) and brembo® ventilated disc
brake (OPT C01)

ENKEI alloy wheels (OPT B44) Large rear spoiler

Available as an option, the ENKEI 18-inch aluminum
alloy wheels use a highly rigid design. After casting,
the rims undergo a spinning process that makes
them thinner and lighter while still increasing
their strength.
The large rear spoiler utilizes a unique design for
optimal aerodynamic results. The curving form
employs a varying shape, with different elevation
angle between the center and the end sections,
providing better airflow control and greater down-
force. The rigid aluminum frame allows the upper
and lower panels to adjust as needed, while the
slim airfoil provides ideal stabilization.
 Interior Design
General Export model year 2009 LANCER EVOLUTION

Standard interior features include one-touch anti-trapping power windows, leather wrapped steering/shift knob
and multi information display.

The Lancer Evolution is a competition based vehicle; due to the drastic reduction of noise-insulation
materials, interior noise and vibration levels will be higher than those of normal production vehicles.

4B11 MIVEC engine

Mitsubishi Motors’ Lancer Evolution IX received wide acclaim for its
revolutionary 4G63 4-cylinder, 2.0-liter gasoline turbo engine, and now
the New Lancer Evolution surpasses its predecessor with a 4B11 MIVEC
twin scroll turbo engine. The new high-performance power plant has
been developed to stand at the forefront of the motor sports field,
yet also boasts improved fuel efficiency and emissions reduction.
Compared to the current 4G63 engine, the 4B11 MIVEC twin scroll
turbo engine has the advantage of greatly enhanced responsiveness.
With a maximum output of 217 kW (295 PS)/6,500 rpm and maximum
torque of 366 N • m (37.3 kg • m)/3,500 rpm, it surpasses the torque
capabilities of the 4G63, in addition to being tuned for greater torque
across the low-rev range. This allows the transmission gear ratio to
be adjusted for overall superior power efficiency.
The biggest difference in this
engine is its cast aluminum cylinder
block. Compared to the current model
which uses a steel cylinder block, this
engine is 12.5 kg lighter. Furthermore,
the layout has been modified to place
the air intake toward the front, and
the exhaust toward the rear. Because
the exhaust no longer needs to be
4 run beneath the engine, the entire
structure can be lowered by 10 mm,
lowering the vehicle’s overall center
of gravity.

Aluminum compressor/Titanium-aluminum turbine turbocharger

In addition to being much lighter, the new compressor wheel
design creates greater intake effectiveness for more torque at
low- and mid-rev ranges, plus improved supercharger response.

Intake & exhaust system

The rear-oriented exhaust layout makes the exhaust piping
shorter and more direct. In addition, output losses are reduced
by the larger intake port, increased main muffler capacity and
large-diameter dual tail pipe arrangement. The space saved by
the new layout of the intake and rear exhaust, in addition to
moving the battery to the trunk space, has made it possible to
achieve a smoother airflow through the air filter and intercooler,
with lower aerodynamic drag.

5-speed manual transmission

The 5-speed transmission has been optimized for the new Lancer
Evolution’s more efficient next-generation engine, delivering
high torque performance even with its more compact design.
The gearing from first to fourth gear is based on a cross-ratio that
has been successful in motor sports, employing a large first gear
ratio for better starts. Fifth gear ratio uses the same small size as
the current model, delivering high cruising performance. A multi-
synchro system for high-speed shifting has been adopted for first
through third gears, as well as fourth and fifth gear, providing
sporty shift control that’s also highly durable. Shifting in the new
Lancer Evolution is responsive and enjoyable, with a distinctively
sporty sensation that makes the driver feel completely in control.

Light weight body

To reduce the overall vehicle weight, the roof panel, engine hood, front
fenders and front and rear bumper beams have all been made with
lightweight aluminum. In addition to increasing body rigidity while
lowering weight, weight reduction has been focused on the upper
part of the vehicle to improve control and performance.

brembo® ventilated disc brake (OPT C01)

The diameter of the brakes has been increased to
improve damping force and reduce the effects of
brake fade. The 18-inch ventilated front disc brakes
and 17-inch ventilated rear disc brakes were
developed jointly with brembo®.

Remarks:
These brakes do have a tendency to produce noise
and brake dust, but this is a normal characteristic of
high-performance brakes. After purchase the driver
should try to avoid making emergency stops for the
first 500 km.

SRS airbag
The driver’s and front passenger’s front dual-stage
SRS airbags in the new Lancer Evolution inflate in
two stages depending on the severity of the impact,
minimizing the likelihood of injury. In addition,
the driver’s knee airbag is included to safeguard the
driver’s legs and provide an even greater degree of
full-body protection.
