JDM Evo X will hit NZ first!

Why? All because Mitsubishi New Zealand wants to beat used-import dealers in the country that might sell an EVO first.

"Mitsubishi Motors New Zealand (MMNZ) is understandably keen to get the Evo X on sale before the used-import operators secure near-new examples of the iconic model and ship them over."

The news announced that it will be launched in New Zealand this month. Mitsubishi NZ has secured the first 50 units of this iconic vehicle. All of these EVO's are equipped with a 5 Speed Manual and will be sold at $62,990. A further shipment of the new semi-automatic TC-SST (Twin Clutch-Sport Shift Transmission) version will follow early next year, at $67,990.

Second quarter next year, the specifications will be the same with the Australian-spec Lancer Evolution to meet the Australian Design Rules (ADR) emissions regulations.
