Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X Final Concept announced, premiere at 2015 Tokyo Auto Show
As Mitsubishi brings down curtains on their iconic Lancer Evo X, the company will be releasing what is called Final Concept at 2015 Tokyo Auto Salon
Mitsubishi had already confirmed that there will be no Evo XI, thus bringing an end to this iconic series. Back in November this year, Mitsubishi confirmed that before saying good-bye to Evo X, they will release a new concept, based on the same. They have now revealed information about this new concept.
Called Final Concept, this special edition version of Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X will go on display at the 2015 Tokyo Auto Salon in January next year, where it will be seen with distinctive interior and exterior updates.
Exterior updates include a new paint job in matte black, while the same colour scheme continues to the roof and rear spoiler but in a glossy finish, to stand apart. Front grille is in chrome while HKS sport suspension gives the car added support when on track. The Final Concept sits on 19” forged aluminium wheels and Yokohama Advan Neovas tyres.
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution Final Concept will be powered by a 2 liter petrol engine with turbocharging and intercooling facilities boosting power to 473 bhp while being mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox and Mitsubishi’s 4WD system giving the final model better gripping facilities on all surfaces.

473 bhp sounds awesome but a little too good to be true, at least for US-bound models, unless they're only getting an even shorter warranty.
The gloss roof/wing on an otherwise matte finish sounds odd... I guess I'd just have to see it.
