Say goodbye to the sweet whining of the turbocharger in the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution. According to sources, the next-generation Lancer Evo XI will be a plug-in hybrid sedan that uses an electric-motor instead of a turbocharger that it uses right now.<\/p>\n

The system will use the\u00a0same platform as the Concept PX-MiEV plug-in hybrid concept<\/a> from last year\u2019s Tokyo Motor Show – meaning, that the Evo XI’s 2.0L gasoline engine will be naturally aspirated and will get a boost from an electric-motor that runs on lithium-ion batteries. The electric-motor will power the front wheels, while the engine will power the rear wheels.<\/p>\n

Sources say that the car will give drivers the option of driving in electric-only mode for short journeys, helping them improve fuel-efficiency and reduce CO2 emissions (because that’s what every Mitsubishi Lancer Evo driver is worried about).<\/p>\n

Insiders say that the Evo XI will also get\u00a0E-AYC, which regulates torque distribution between the rear wheels.<\/p>\n
