Currently, FQ-400 is the fastest and most extreme and powerful Mitsubishi Lancer Evo in the market. Its power comes from an advanced, lighweight aluminium 2.0 litre turbocharged Mitsubishi Innovative Valve timing Electronic Control (MIVEC) petrol engine. Peak power of 403bhp @ 6,500rpm with peak torque of 525Nm @ 3,500rpm. In only took 3.8 seconds from 0-62mph and the top speed 155mph.

To make sure full utilization is done, the Mitsubishi’s sophisticated Super-All Wheel Control (S-AWC) four wheel drive system is used. It combines a few electronic systems which enhance the performance and safety, with Active Stability and Active Centre Differential, Active Yaw Control and Sport ABS.

In terms of stability, Eibach springs and Bilstein Shock Absorbers are used. To add, lighweight 18 inch, nine spoke alloy wheels fitted with Toyo Proves R1R tyres. Braking is much more better with the use of aerospace grade aluminium alloys and floating sealed discs grabbed by high performance pads.
