Slotting between the Lancer Evolution GSR and the top-flight MR Touring
models is the exciting all-new limited edition 2010 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution
SE - the SE standing for "Special Edition," which borrows many of the best
features from both models to create what may be the ultimate Evolution.
Key performance components carried over from the top-of-the-line MR edition
to the SE version include the ultra-high performance suspension package that
employs Eibach springs and Bilstein shock absorbers, two-piece Brembo front
brake rotors with remarkable stopping power and Mitsubishi's lightning-fast Twin
Clutch-Sportronic Shift Transmission (TC-SST) that allows for split-second gear
shifts via either steering wheel paddle shifters or the shift lever without a
clutch pedal.
Gone are the small (GSR) and large (MR) wings atop the rear
deck lid; like the MR touring model, the new Evo SE makes use of a small, less
conspicuous lip spoiler. Other highlights include brightly illuminating HID
headlights and a choice of four colors - Graphite Gray, Wicked White, Phantom
Black and Octane Blue.
Heated cloth RECARO seats and exclusive "SE"
badging round out the Lancer Evolution SE's unique packaging, one that provides
a very high degree of speed and agility in a visually more discreet and
affordable package.
While remaining true to the core values that have
made the Lancer Evolution synonymous with thrilling performance, the
next-generation 2010 model offers new premium features and user technology
options for a more refined driving experience.
