Don't know if this is a repost, sorry if it is, but I was just looking at some cars and found this. Looks like will be giving the 09 lancer lots of power.

The 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer debuted at the 2007 North American International Auto Show in Detroit with a bold new design that was first revealed at the 2005 Tokyo Motor Show in the exciting Mitsubishi Concept-X.

Alongside the 2008 Lancer in Detroit was the Prototype X, described as being 98 percent of what the next-generation Evolution will be when it debuts next fall at the Frankfurt Motor Show. Mitsubishi has confirmed the look of the Evolution X with the release of the first official photos, but no other details have been announced.

The Prototype X differs from the standard Lancer in its deeper, gray-colored grille, oversized rear spoiler, underside air diffuser, lightweight wheels, low-profile tires, and Brembo brakes along with a new all-wheel-drive system.

The Prototype X is powered by an all-new aluminum 2.0-liter DOHC MIVEC turbocharged intercooled engine that in the Evolution X is expected to produce more than 300 horsepower which will be the highest output of any Evolution to date.

Both the Concept-X and the Prototype X feature a new auto-manual 6-speed transmission that allows the driver to shift manually using paddle shifters without operating the clutch and a similar transmission is expected for the Evolution X. The Concept-X also features the latest version of Mitsubishi's 4WD-based Super All-Wheel-Control (S-AWC) vehicle dynamics control system which may be included as well.

 

I'm pretty sure that link it talking about the new Evo X. Sorry to burst your bubble. All it said about the Lancer in there was that its debut was in 2007 and they had the prototype X next to it. Then they went from there.

There's nothing about the 2009 N/A Lancer in that article.

 

Yeah, the article is about the X. Not the regular lancer nor the ralliart.
The X is a lancer, too but a Lancer Evolution.
Remember?
The article is referring to the X.

Los siento, homie.
