| Road Test |
The 2009 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart is a well-honed sporty sedan with a tuner-car look and feel--and an appearance closely resembling that of the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, which has been benched for the 2009 model year. The Ralliart is based heavily on the sportier GTS version of the economical Mitsubishi Lancer sedan, which is covered by a different review. While the Evolution made its debut last year, the Ralliart is new this year, and it lands between the sportiest standard Lancer sedan, the GTS, and the high-performance Evo in demeanor.
