Mitsubishi has announced some changes for the 2010 model year of the Lancer Evolution X. At the moment these changes only affect the Evolution X sold in Japan and it is unclear if the updated Evolution X will reach our shores.
Exterior wise, the ‘Evo’ has received thicker side skirts while the plastic parts up front (around the front bumper) are now collectively lighter by 1.5 kg. This should improve power to weight ratio but Mitsubishi did not reveal performance figures for the 2010 model. On the inside, the trim has been tweaked and there is a new colour LCD screen that is nestled between the speedometer and tachometer. The screen features better readability and offers more functions. Under the hood, the only update is the engine cover that is now made of resin, although the auto maker did not reveal the benefits offered by the material – perhaps weight reduction (like the bumpers, etc)?
Other updates includes a windshield with noise reduction properties, an improved cruise control function, “welcome lights” and “coming home lights” features that turn on headlights when entering and leaving the car at night as well as a one-touch window washer function with improved water atomization. Chrome rings have also been added to the air conditioning control knobs.
The 5-speed manual for the range-topping GSR Premium Edition model has been dropped. Instead, it only comes with a 6-speed dual clutch SST transmission. The 5-speed manual is now only offered with GSR and RS trim levels.
Pricing in Japan starts from 3,150,000 yen (about RM 116,000) for the RS and tops out at 5,071,500 yen (about RM 186,000) for the GSR Premium Edition.
Look for more images after the jump.

Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
it's a pity those prices won't be applicable here….. such injustice…..
If Japan is selling over RM100k, Malaysia going to selling it at RM200k. :(
coolllllllllllllllllllllllllll!!!!
No, not RM200k but RM300+k
200k is nowhere near lah…definitely around 300s
the beautiful car is spoilt by the 'helang' i see on the road IMO
only one variant of the Evo X is available here.abt rm300k.well,if u wanna cheap price,then go to Japan n stay for 3 years la.that's to avoid full taxation.not fully avoid taxation.
We still waiting for Proton Malysian made Waja Lancer.
how about fuel consumption, economy or not ?
cantik.. no need to modified, the engine good technology and if the price rm150k to 160k memang laku laa…
Bah.
Riceboy car. The Evo X sounds like an RC car on hotlaps… compared to the gasoline powered gatling guns below:
Real man's full sized supercharged V8:

Or at the very least, a lil cheaper but with similar lap times to the EVO X:

422hp V8.
The low pitched rumble of these cars are awesome..stock from the factory.
'only one variant of the Evo X is available here.abt rm300k.well,if u wanna cheap price,then go to Japan n stay for 3 years la.that’s to avoid full taxation.not fully avoid taxation'
forget it…just migrat to Japan…hahaha!

WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!
selling so cheap in Japan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
jz over RM100K.. i can afford this car, really… (if the price same as Japanese)
sampai malaysia terus jd 300k :)
gila mahal…
bila r aku bleh pakai kereta ney…(nada sedih)
bila tukar gover kot…(nada Mengharap)
huhuhuhu
best ker? macam biasa je…
polis pun pakai EVO.
Tuner kena pakai impreza la. Baru best..
p/s: Impreza kecik sikit, senang nak parking. EVO tak best, sama macam PDRM pakai…
kalau tuner kne la appreciate evo sbb rival impreza. baru la tuner sejati..kne hormat rival. so knapa dgn polis pakai evo? polis kt itali pon pakai lambo..x bes la lamborghini..mcm tuh?
p/s- myvi lagi sng nak parking dari subaru or evo. lamborghini x best, sbb polis itali pakai. LOL~
why EVO X in Malaysia dont have a full spec likes Japanese market 1?
we lack of projector headlamps and hid spec, as we can see at PDRM helang one..
harga mahal tapi tak bagi hid and projector headlamp..
fuck GOV. sell it for 100+ la..shit them
hehe..get a wira or waja then convert lor..do it the msian way..haha!

a malay bimbo!
u can have the brother called waja lancer soon
err silap.. tanya la..
itali dengan malaysia ada sama KA Bro theanswer?
one of the better japanese makes with better designs and engines.
thank goodness proton collaborated with mitsubishi rather than T/H/N. why? my old silver proton saga 1.5 auto still in excellent running condition after 19 years.
i shudder to think if proton chose T/H/N, as we might be driving the same, god-knows-how-many-limited-editions-or-facelifts a model has to endure, without upgrading the engines and other specs.
looking forward to 'wajalancer'.
if performance is ur main concern, buy this evo :)
else, wait la for waja replacement model :)
i'll wait for the wa 'lancer' ja…

you are comparing sound from a 4 cylinder engine with a V8 engine. seriously??
3 000 000 yen actually not that 'cheap' quite pricey here even to japanese … … even the car is 'cheap' , cost of maintance here more that you could think .. at least you need to pay around RM2k at least to go for binually check-up before the JPJ here release a road-tax stamp for you … still thinking the car is 'cheapo' … lu pikir la sendiri
(about RM 116,000) for the RS and tops out at 5,071,500 yen (about RM 186,000) for the GSR Premium Edition.
whatsss up..
guys here talk about cheap evo in japan..yes the car there is cheap…but what about the rest…your food neh….house, hospitalisation, education…..damn they are explosive high. so be grateful living in malaysia. By earning 10k amonth you can drive 2 cars(100k above) and living in 400K house…just to say a few…..can you have that even in our neighbouring country???i know what its like living in Japan.
been around & still think Malaysia is better… no where is perfect!
looking forward to the new Proton Waja (Lancer)
just to say a few…..can you have that even in our neighbouring country???i know what its like living in Japan.

I agree with 2718, boleh land all drive the tin can potong better, not so attracting to robbers, drive EVOX must transform to PDRM look, else may attract robber gang..

=============================================
Then just stay there. Be their citizen and don't come back. No one needs ungrateful citizens. And don't come here boasting around your salary. Have you heard of foreign exchange? Do you even know why "have RM5k better act like only have RM500?" What kind of retard statement is that?
Show us the pictures of your apartment and your Evo9. The fact that we own your so called tin-can potong cars doesn't mean we have a terrible life. Me? I just prefer to enjoy my evening on my 1-acre backyard of my double storey detached house doing nothing.
Don't worry, his Evo9 runs on underground tracks..
if i can afford without thinking the resale value..will buy Lancer GT..
Why there is no news about the upcoming Waja-Lancer, is it true or just a lie to spark interest on Proton….If not I'm gonna take other car, perhaps Kia Forte.

A moron's comment, and history (if he reads) had proven that a 'puny' 6-inline can do 1,000bhp from the land of rising sun without blowing up the engine like they always do…and had to cast the Godzilla off Le Mans just to save their faces! Haha…

Supercar fr Japan is far natural in term of speeding compared to European, though European cars are far seamless. You can only get Supercars fr Japan that is CBU without outsourced parts.
