Jeremy takes us through the new versions of the Mitsubishi Evo and the Subaru Impreza. Both are complicated, both Japanese, both reach 155mph - so how to separate them? Clip taken from series 11, episode 2.

PantsuPirate OLD it’s because Subaru’s are iconic for being painted blue, and lancer evos are iconic for being painted red. Most of the best rally competition versions of them (McRaes 555 Impreza was blue and Tommy Makinens Marlboro Evo VI was red) use the colours in their liveries so it’s a bit weird that Top Gear would reverse the colours

The fact that it's "old" is a positive. Everything made in the last 7 years is full of electronic crap that makes cars slower, heavier and lazier. Even the Evo X is guilty of this compared to the previous Evo IX, but it's still far better than most cars made in 2021.

That's not really how the dccd system works, though. A common misconception. The manual modes are not changing the nominal 41-59 fr-rr torque split. They're changing the relative looseness or tightness of the center differential, and has a mode that fully locks it for when you're on a consistently very low-traction surface. But the nominal torque split is unchanged.

They both were built pretty much for rally car racing and only fanboys bought either. Now they're both way more "famous" and they've built them to be a bit more "every day" type cars. I've seen videos of Subaru Type R STi's beat porsche's in a quarter mile and definitely used to see WRX beat Evos all day in most catergories. The bit of modernization done to the Evos just happned to benefit them a bit more than the Subarus.....especially an IMPREZA....not the fairest of challenges seeing as how the Imprezas are even more tuned down. /endrant

Sadly by time I graduated college and actually made enough money to afford one of these, the Evo was cancelled. I currently drive a WRX and love it. I would be happy with either one but owning a new car with a warranty was enough of a decision maker for me.

He said as far as I remember that Subaru is more suitable for daily drive, and that is propably true, but Evo is far better when it comes to handling and speed, plus its not really useless in daily life either.

The 2008 STI wasn’t the first Subaru inspired by video gaming. I saw an old auto journal video from 1985 where they tested an XT coupe. That thing had an ‘80’s style arcade gauge panel with car-on-road graphics and a joystick-style gear shifter.
