(1)2.0-liter DOHC intercooler-turbocharged engine
The new Evolution V generates
maximum output of 280 PS and torque of 38.0 kg-m (2.0 kg-m more
than Evolution IV) using
an upgraded intercooler, enlarged nozzle area in the twin-scroll turbocharger,
lighter pistons, and
upgraded radiator and oil-cooler.
(2)Close-ratio transmission
The new Evolution V uses
a close-ratio gearbox which, together with a stiffer linkage and shorter
shift
lever, realizes more
direct and positive operation and better shift feel.
(3)Suspension and handling
Longer lower arms in
the front and changes to the arm attachment points in the rear suspension
widen the track 40mm
at the front and 35mm at the rear over Evolution IV. This, together with
stiffer
toe and camber resulting
from the use of inverted struts at the front, results in improved cornering
stability.
(4)Tires
Evolution V uses 225
/ 45ZR17 tires, improving grip and realizing a substantial increase in
cornering
limits.
(5)Brakes
To match the improved
dynamic performance, Evolution V uses Brembo 17-inch 4-pot caliper
brakes at the front
and 16-inch 2-pot caliper brakes at the rear. (16-inch 2-pot caliper at
front and
15-inch single-pot caliper
at rear on Evolution IV). The result is less fade and more stable braking
at
high brake temperatures.
(6)Adaptive yaw control
Evolution V achieves
optimal torque distribution to all four wheels by combining a helical limited
slip
differential in the
front transaxle with Mitsubishi's own AYC (Active Yaw Control) system that
generates a stabilizing
yaw moment by creating a torque differential in the right and left wheels.
The
result is improved cornering
performance and stability on all surfaces.
