LANCER EVOLUTION X WINS ‘SPORTS CAR OF THE YEAR 2008’

*Public vote sees Evolution X take the crown against some stiff, and expensive competition
*New looks, power and value are a big hit with Dave judges and viewers

Sports Car of the Year 2008
This year’s ‘Car of the Year’ final on Dave TV announced that Mitsubishi’s Lancer Evolution X has won the Sports category ‘Car of the Year’. The new car was up against some very tough – and in some cases very expensive - competition, including the new VW Scirocco and the Porsche 911.

Awesome power
In a public vote the Evo X won out with its sophisticated, yet menacing looks, and all the power and handling to back up its rally-bred credentials. The panel of judges, including Mike Rutherford, Alistair Weaver, Ben Oliver and Nick Gibbs found that the car had “awesome amounts of power” and that the new Twin Clutch SST gearbox was excellent.

The viewing public seemed to agree as well, voting the Mitsubishi muscle car into top slot ahead of all its rivals.
