The Evolution theme is a strong selling point for many riders. They believe it helps them identify talented riders faster, makes their rides more fun to watch, and gives them a place to talk about Evo if they see one on the road.
The Evolution theme is not a universal theme, so some clubs have chosen not to use it. Some clubs have adopted lancer as the theme instead, or even introduced new rider introductions at the beginning of season.
This article will focus on introducing new riders and taking public comment to help make the introduction process as easy and non-intrusive as possible.

Horsepower
When it comes to horsepower, Evo has the bigger advantage. The Evo boasts a maximum of 567 horsepower while the Lancer can only manage 525. This is the difference between taking off like a missile and having the ability to power through a corner.
The Lancer can also get much louder than the Evo which is an added bonus!
Bullet point: Weight
Another difference between the two cars is weight. The Lancer weighs about 200 pounds less than theevo. This makes a big impact when trying to match him in agility and speed.
Heavier vehicles are more stable when cornering, which is one of the main skills drivers need when it comes to horse-power! Fortunately, the Evo is not difficult to start off with as it has almost no mods needed.
Differences in design
When looking at the designs of Lancer and Evo, there are some significant differences. These differences can be divided into primary and minor differences.
Primary Differences include: Engine, Snotal, Interior Color, Bodywork
Included in these list are the color options for the engine lid, interior latch housing color, and roof rack option. All of these factors contribute to the look of an automotive.
Snotal is a term used to describe an overlaid coating applied to either a car’s underbody material or its bodywork. The purpose of this material is to prevent water from dripping off the car during heavy rainfall events.
Bodywork includes both doors and doors jambing off of the frame, bumpers, fenders, and any other features that affect how an automobile looks when it is on display. Last but not least, exterior paint job including what type (gloss or matte) and whether it has any highlights or decorations.
Turbocharged vs Supercharged
When talking about engines, nearly every person will mention the term “turbocharger”. However, rather than talk about how much turbocharge a engine has, which engines have it and what turbocharged engines have it, this article is focused on describing the difference between a turbocharged and supercharged engine.
Turbocharging is the process of installing a small amount of engine power into the crankcase to give more powerful combustion results. The most common way to do this is with an Jewsberg Turbo or Autoliv Block & Tackle.
The Jewersberg Turbo was originally developed for boats using diesel fuel, as it allowed you to use regular diesel fuel in your car but with quicker start up and better mileage. Now that they are no longer made for boats, they are available for cars as well!
Another way to use Turbocharging is in fuel tanks. While a standard gasoline tank can hold almost 7 gallons of gas, some ships have larger tanks that hold more fuel so that it can be used at different times.
Front-wheel drive vs All-wheel drive
Which is better? Front-wheel or All-wheel drive? This question is asked almost every year, due to more vehicles being designed with All-wheel drive these past years. While it still remains the go-to method for handling off-road, Federal Highway Administration has recently recommended Front-wheel drive cars for off-roading because of the need for off-road capability.
Off-roading can be done in both directions, so this question does not have a definitive answer. However, when doing off-roading, an all wheel drive vehicle is definitely better than a lancer that does not have all wheel support. On the other hand, when cruising in snow or mud only, a front wheel drive vehicle is better than no support at all.
The main reason to have an all wheel drive vehicle is to help with weight distribution during maneuvers such as steep hills or jumps.
Less expensive versions available
If you are looking for a less expensive model to transition from the standard lancer to the Nisshin, there are several alternatives out there. Most of them have similar features, but with a slightly lower price point.
Some of these models include the Evo Line, which is a more advanced version with additional features. The Line includes additional features such as color options and an iterative release cycle.
The one feature that all of these models have in common is that they are less expensive than their fully equipped Evo counterpart. Starting at just under $400, these models are an affordable way to start training on your nisshin.
Not as many features or options
While Lancer does have some features added on, like the L&D, Evo doesn’t have any additional features added on.
Instead, they work in conjunction with each other to give you a more complete riding experience. So, if you want the L&D but don’t want the full complement of riding modes and accessories? You can easily choose Evo!
Lancer also doesn’t offer as many accessories as Evo does, meaning you may need to look around for a company to install them for you. Some companies do offer them, but not all models have them installed at launch.
Lower fuel economy
While both engines deliver great torque, the Lancer Evolution’s 2.0-liter four-cylinder delivers less fuel economy. The 2.0-liter engine in the Evo delivers 188 horsepower, which is great for passing and going!
This engine is known for its impressive fuel consumption metrics. It can produce up to 26 miles per gallon in the highway mode, meaning you will be able to take advantage of this engine in the wet or snow!
The weight of this engine makes it hard to keep running rich when driving fast. Because of this, you may have to pay more money for your Evolution because it will require more gas to drive fast.
You may also find that driving with the foot on the gas harder can result in richer oil and camshaft movement, which reduces efficiency.
Heavier cars
While most people consider a SUV or a mini car to be lightweight, the average weight of an SUV or mini car is much less than a truck.
An SUV or mini car typically weighs between 5 and 10 tons! That is how heavy they are. A truck can weigh more than 20 tons!
This is the difference between an Appearance LNX and an All-Terrain T150. The All-Terrain looks more at home on the battlefield than an office workspace.
The appearance factor plays a large role in what people choose for vehicle entrances and exits. If you want to show off your rankness, opt for an entry-level Evo or Lancer instead of the standard-looking All-Terrain.
Another factor that people use when choosing which vehicle is size, comfort, convenience, and quality of equipment offered by the vehicle.
