UK Evo IX FQ Specs
 
Mitsubishi has announced the UK model range for its Evo IX, which goes on sale in June.

This is the last version of the four-seat supercar in its current form. But don't fret - Mitsubishi is working on an all-new replacement for 2007.

Based on the company's latest WRC car, the Evo IX features three versions of the same 2.0-litre multi-valve turbocharged engine:

# FQ-300: 305bhp at 6,950rpm, 157mph, 0–62 in 4.7 seconds
# FQ-320: 326bhp at 6,700rpm, 157mph, 0–62 in 4.5 seconds
# FQ-340: 345bhp at 6,800rpm, 157mph, 0–62 in 4.3 seconds


The Evo IX looks similar to the car it replaces, but front and rear bumpers are updated for improved aerodynamics and a new design of alloy wheel helps reduce weight.

Standard equipment includes:

# Air-con
# Electric windows
# Front and side airbags
# Cat 1 alarm
# Bilstein suspension


In addition, the FQ-340 also features SmartNav and leather/Alcantara seats.

Prices for the Evo IX have been pegged at Evo VIII levels - maintaining the car's reputation for barely beatable performance-per-pound. Don't expect haggling to work, though…

FQ-300 - £27,999
FQ-320 - £29,999
FQ-340 - £32,999

If I have to choose between those FQ's it gotta be the FQ 300, most affordable, great power with low turbolag, and cheapest running cost...
