Anyone know if Mitsu will be adding a Ralliart to the '09 lineup: Spy Photos: 2009 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart? |
|
The EVO is launching sometime before the end of March 2008. Mitsubishi probably does not want the RalliArt to cannibalize sales from their iconic super-sedan, so I would assume the RalliArt will be launched in late 2008 as an '09 model.

Replying to: psychogun (Jul 30, 2007 1:46 pm) I'd probably buy a Ralliart if it was coming out when I need to buy a new car but even the EVO if it's released as late as March will be too late for me to buy it. I'll need a car by January and if the EVO is out and at MSRP and my wife and I can actually test drive it then we might just buy it. If now we will have to buy another brand. So I hope Mitsu gets on the ball and releases it in Nov/Dec. Other than that it's wait until the EVO XI. |

| hello everyone, let me introduce myself. i am jbshp100 and i am new to the forum, i see you guys were discussing about the new possible 2009 mitsubishi lancer ralliart.i have seen spy photos of the car undergoing testing in california, and i would like to get my hands on one in 2009. but i want to know if they are going to have a 6-speed manual as standard and a optional 6-speed double-clutch sequential automatic that i saw in the EVO prototype photos. i would love to see that in the Ralliart as an option and does anybody know about the horsepower? thanks | |

2009 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart Caught Before Its 2008 Debut says that The dual-clutch gearbox being introduced by Mitsubishi for the Lancer Evolution isn't likely to find its way into the Ralliart, however, so expect to see either a five- or six-speed manual gearbox.. Also, expect the 2009 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart to get a turbocharged version of Mitsubishi's latest 2.0-liter four-cylinder with an output of around 220 to 230 horsepower. The proximity to the 224 hp generated by the Subaru Impreza WRX is no coincidence, as Mitsubishi is directly targeting Subaru's highly successful midlevel performance. I, for one, would like the DSG-type tranny in the Ralliart.

And yet, it will come with the Twin Clutch-SST gearbox.  2009 Lancer Ralliart At-A-Glance |
