I think everyone forgets that electricity has less laggIt is not like a traditional evo platform but i guess it is the future. Everyone complained about the Evo X when it came out.. oh its 150kg heavier than a IX... blah blah blah.. I sold my IX and went to a X MR. Yes it is heavier but... lets compare HID X MR = YES IX = NO DVD NAVIGATION X MR = YES IX = NO RECARO X MR = PROPER JDM SEATS + HEATING & AIRBAG IX = CRAPPY SEAT BOLSTERS NON JDM. NO HEATING. NO AIRBAG AIR BAGS X MR = 9 AIR BAGS IX = 3 AIR BAGS WHEELS X MR = 18 BBS IX = 17 BBS (IF YOU BOUGHT THE PERFORMANCE PACK) SUSPENSION X MR = YELLOW BILSTEIN IX = YELLOW BILSTEIN (IF YOU BOUGHT PERFORMANCE PACK) RAIN WIPERS X MR = STANDARD (IN ALL EVOS) IX = NO BREMBO X MR = LARGER AND 2 PIECE SYSTEM IX = YES SINGLE PIECE SOUND SYSTEM X MR = ROCKFORD FOSGATE IX = OKAY SPEAKERS FOUND IN LANCER KEYLESS ENTRY X MR = YES IX = NO DIGITAL EUROPEAN INFO METER X MR = YES IX = NO MIVEC X MR = 4B11 HAS INTAKE AND EXHAUST VARIABLE VALVE IX = INTAKE ONLY KW X MR = 217KW IX = 206KW HANDLING X MR = S-AWC IX = ACD There was a tuner that says the 4B11 is a much better race engine. 4G63 was solid but it was never up to the level of 4B11. 4G block has been around since Cordia and Starion. Mitsubishi did what they should have done ages ago, which was to turn the engine the other way round. Things also like the automatic turbo timer on the X MR is also a cool feature. Overall it is a more solid car. So going back on topic, maybe the new Evolution will be another jump above 4B11. My 2 cents from my experience going from IX to X MR
I think you are missing the key factor tho. The Evo is supposed to be a loud, fire breathing smog building deamond... An electric evo is just, not an evo. I like my evo, it makes baby seals cry... >_> lol Seriously tho, there is something about electric cars, and Hybrids, that just seems so sterile. I'll stick with internal combustion any day, I just wish they went more of the Ethanol or Hydrogen path.
