NAIAS - Lancer Ralliart Turbo

The new Lancer Ralliart reinforces the sporty identity of the Lancer lineup (Lancer, Lancer Ralliart and Lancer Evolution) with aggressive styling and driving performance.

The Lancer Ralliart is powered by the new 4B11 2.0-liter DOHC MIVEC intercooled and turbocharged engine (also used in the Lancer Evolution) that develops an estimated 235 horsepower. The engine is mated to Mitsubishi's efficient Twin Clutch-SST gearbox that helps enhance the sporty nature of the vehicle by allowing the driver to execute lightning-quick, silky-smooth, paddle-actuated shifts.

The Lancer Ralliart's full-time 4WD driveline features Mitsubishi's Active Center Differential (ACD) and employs electronically controlled multi-plate clutch center differential, vectoring drive torque to the front and rear according to different driving conditions. The car is also equipped with front helical limited slip differential and a rear differential mechanical limited slip differential.

We expect this to be the replacement car for the Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart Turbo sold here in Singapore; if the car is ever coming to Singapore, that is.
