Good design 4B11 T / C engine is at the heart of the entire track fast Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution - you can get the pulse racing, even the most experienced car enthusiasts with its ultra-fast acceleration and instant power loads barrel appear anywhere in the rev range of the tachometer.
Although only 2.0 liters (1997 cc) displacement, this hearty DOHC 16-valve 4-cylinder engine line consists of an engine block and all-aluminum cylinder head (for high strength and low weight) and to a bore and stroke, both measuring just 86.0 mm (3.4 inches), making it a "square" design as its bore-stroke ratio is 1.0. Power of this engine is 291 horsepower at 6500 rpm with 300 lb.-ft. of torque at full product at a much lower 4000 rpm. Mitsubishi Innovative Valve timing Electronic Control system (MIVEC) acts on both camshafts intake and exhaust to maximize energy production and cleaner exhaust. Turbo / compression ratio is 9.0:1 the engine intercooler.
Short-Throw 5-speed manual or 6-speed rapid-fire double-Sportronic Shift Transmission
Standard equipment on the 2011 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution GSR, manual gearbox 5 speed is fun to drive.
Your shifter navigate through the gates with a precision rifle bolt type with each short, take satisfactory. The pilot is also the light clutch and it works similarly. The functionality of the shifter and clutch pedal reward the operator with a high degree of mechanical feel - exactly what you want a high performance sports.
But while the functioning and feel of the manual transmission found in the GSR model provides a satisfactory performance, hard-core enthusiasts to drive most likely opt for the transmission of high technology is included in every model of Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution MR.
Mitsubishi revolutionary dual-clutch transmission Sportronic Shift (TC-SST) is nothing less than an engineering marvel.
The TC-SST allows the driver to make changes in a fraction of the time could be achieved with a standard manual transmission. The system also allows the driver to make these changes through the shifter mounted on the console or even more comfort for steering wheel paddle levers of magnesium. Furthermore, the ratio of almost six-speed dual-clutch transmission shift Sportronic can operate in fully automatic, like a conventional automatic transmission. The manual or automatic, every move up or down takes place instantaneously without perceptible latency, with the engine management system "heartbeat" of the throttle with each downshift, matching the speeds of the engine and transmission perfectly.
Supercar performance of the Super All Wheel Control (S-AWC)
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution has always been known for its exceptional maneuverability. But the help of advanced electronic controller of the present generation of vehicles - especially large company in a super all wheel control (S-AWC) system - took the maneuverability of an evolution path hugs surprisingly high.
Control Super All-Wheel (S-AWC) is not a specific device, but a network of advanced dynamic that constantly communicate with each other to provide improved traceability. This includes Active Stability Control (ASC), an active center differential (ACD), active yaw control (CAL) rear differential and ABS brakes sports. Working together, the control of the Super-All Wheel (S-AWC) module torque at each wheel in real time for maximum control.
Active Stability Control (ASC) includes traction control systems and vehicle stability control and helps regulate the distribution of braking force and engine power at each wheel.
Active Center Differential (ACD) uses electronically controlled hydraulic multi-plate clutch share the motor torque (up to 50:50), front and rear tires. This routing engine power between front and rear of the vehicle depends on a variety of data collected by individual sensors such as wheel speed, throttle opening, wheel angle, and lateral and longitudinal positioning of the car .
Acting similarly to a conventional limited slip differential, Active Yaw Control rear differential (CJA) uses a planetary gear differential, speed sensor and control the braking force by Active Stability Control (ASC) system for torque control to the rear wheels for better traction and stability on slippery road and high speed cornering.
Thanks to advanced sensors, brake pressure, speed and yaw rate sensor, Sport anti-lock (ABS) helps the driver maintain steering control on slippery surfaces better, or very heavy braking.
Advanced Sport-Tuned Chassis and suspension
A very rigid, strong but lightweight components and excellent suspension tuned independently form the basis for each of the Lancer Evolution.
