this is a better ride from the Lancer GT-S but a bit less hardware from the Evo
i hope this car will be less then RM 200k if it want to fight the Impreza S-GT cause Lancer Ralliart as know as a same class as the Impreza WRX (S-GT) at the USA……. a man can hope does he? i rather buy this Ralliart then the more ‘kencing manis’, ‘asam jawas’ expensive Evo……

i am a lancer gt owner. the cvt feels sluggish but in fact it’s speeding fast. just that we do not get that gear change shock feeling, so it feels slow.

“for the price in malaysia do you guys think is worth to get the GT? any Lancer owner here? please comment about the CVT gearbox, this look like underpower”

hi, i’m a GT owner. yes you’re right, the CVT does feel sluggish in Drive mode. but then u have the Sports mode via the steering wheel pedal or gearbox. now with this ur RPM will scream! hehehh. so to save fuel, keep it in D mode for normal driving and Sports mode for spirited drive. if u go with this Ralliart version tho, the twin clutch SST is superb, of course the price will be doubled than the current GT and tripled if EvoX.

nice car, but those upgrades are really just ralli art badges rite

Not this time around. The last Ralliart Oz edition drew serious flack for being a rim and badging upgrade.

This time however, there is a proper AWD and a turbo engine.
I assume you actually read the post?

this is like getting a GTT than GTR, WRX than STi…

“almost there…but not quite”…thats my motto for these type of models…

my 2cents!

This is aimed at the WRX, but is 240PS enough to have fun in this lancer? Topgear drove both the FQ360 and 300 a couple of weeks ago and although the 360 looks like a proper tarmac rally car, the 300 was dragging its feet (slower that a Impreza STi). It’s a heavy car compared to the Subaru

If you squint your eyes and look at the side view something says Alfa-BMW but then if I squint and look at one of my cousins something tells me ‘Neanderthal-Cro Magnon’. I didn’t have anything to say actually but I just wanted to post.

Same Ralliart lancer model, just with different name in its homeland.

i’m guessing the price to be somewhere near the 160-200k price tag area.

considereing how the Evo X is priced at 200k onwards.

then again, they might not even bring it in.

Didn’t the Lancer used to be a C-segment car and the Galant a D-segment car? Now they have combined the two. Looks like they can’t afford to make more models.

sewell, Mazda 6 is a D segment car and is even more expensive than Accord/Camry

so is this Galant Fortis better than Lancer GT?

and one more question: why the new Lancer in Taiwan is totally different exterior?
