Autocar Rating
Don't be fooled by the name into thinking this car has anything to do with the legendary Evo; it may once have formed the basis of that car, but otherwise they are chalk and cheese. Nothing wrong with the Lancer saloon as such: it's cheap, reasonably cheerful, goes quite well, is economical and quite well made. But neither is there much sparkle. The automotive equivalent of a cheap washing machine that never, ever breaks down.
