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? Jeremy uses a group of rally fans to help. Lets just hope the scotch egg doesn't get run over!

When Clarkson says about the Evo that "you can have a crash and that it will still keep going" That's an absolute fact. I myself rolled the car 4 times and the second it got back on its wheels it kept going. It took a telephone poll to stop it, and it still managed to snap the pole in half. All of this happened in about 5 seconds so it's not like I did it on purpose or had any time to react. Nobody was hurt but me, and needless to say I definitely learned a lesson in reckless driving.

As a Evo fan, given consideration to the fact that this is old, I still must say putting a sedan up against a hatchback is not exactly a fair match up. Especially because he was using the FQ-360 model. Why not just the base model Evo? However, I would like to see a face off between the 2011 Impreza S206 with the NBR Package and a 2010 Lancer Evo X FQ-400. That would be more exciting.

I will settle all these BUTTHURT fan boys of Subaru's and the Mitsubishi's comment from a "stock" point of view. Mitsubishi is a far better "TRACK" vehicle that produces better lap times, turns, acceleration, and stoppage power. Subaru is a far better "RALLY" vehicle that produces better off road handling, superior suspension, impeccable symmetrical AWD, engine reliability with a combined power, balance, and efficiency ratio, and their resale values with age are astonishingly good.

[@zachfink8494]

I'm a happy WRX owner and I have never driven an EVO. Every person I've ever talked to that have driven both will say that they liked how the EVO is a tighter and more precise car than an STI. Don't get me wrong, my last car was an R53 Mini and one of the things that took the most getting used to is the vague and lower quality feel, and that is one thing I'd love to see Subaru improve on. Even with the worse feel though, my WRX has more all out grip than my Mini did. I am a bit annoyed by this review because, I don't think it's ugly, apparently Jeremy Clarkson is the only person on the planet that thinks an EVO sounds better, and if you want to say it will do donuts around an STI endlessly you should probably try to prove it in a take that is longer than 1 second... At the end of the day... they're still competitors and it's up to each person to decide what they want. My feel has always been that the EVO is the more bleeding edge of technology car that at the end of the day, just doesn't have the same amount of character that a Subaru has, and Subaru has always been the blunt instrument. Performance wise they're pretty close with two different approaches. Actually relatively worried for Subaru though because with the 2015 they've tried to make it too similar to the EVO... new WRX is a 2.0L with EL headers and a twin scroll turbo and direct injection. So there goes the boxer rumble and (presumably) low end torque offered by displacement, so I sure hope they can compete!

It's funny, you can tell who gives the best bonus check to clarkson when their cards are on the show.

I'm kinda disappointed that they're discontinuing the Evo. At least it's gone out with a bang.

[@lightsaberlordp373]

But you have to admit the Japanese beat the French in rally cars!! Because the Evo and Impreza are very well made!!!

[@S1L3NTBUTCH3R]

@@lightsaberlordp373 French and japan are really good at rally but the production cars from France manufacturers are not exciting. Looking forward to get either a 1993 or 2001 Impreza or an mr2 as a first car. Yes i love Japanese cars.

[@NathanSwagTaylor]

Lemme just say I love both cars Evo

It's 2019 & I'm still moping over Evo's swan song...

[@eugenux]

not going to happen due to tighter and tighter regulation. Developing a similar car to the former EVOs would cost gazillions. Just look at what Toyota has done. Even at 35-37k, every one is ptoduced and sold at a loss; and Toyota has some of the biggest money in the industry. Mitsu, unfortunately, is in a bad bad spot due to gazzillion ppl buying VW products and very little of theirs. Subaru got some help and funds to play from Toyota and the BRZ/GT-GR86 is a great car(that would have not been possible without Toyota's money) but, I don't think they have money for another driver's car beside this one. Considering the conditions, that's the best they could do and we should appreciate them and buy the damn car as it seems a great drive. current Impreza STI and EVO are the golf R and the Merc A45 but, both of them are fake AWD and also, both of them are ridiculously expensive. EVO IIX and IX were around 25k. Now, a good one, in the second hand market is 40k. A damn golf R with some options is 50K+ while a well specced A45 is close to 80. Ffs, these are not ppl's performance cars anymore; they are just expensive sports car shaped as hot hatches. For instance, when the EVO IIX was 25-to-30k, an M3 was 50k. The current M3 is in excess of 100k(wtf??!) . Somewhere along the line, something got really really wrong.

This is probably one of the most even tests that Top Gear has done. Considering that everyone compares these cars.
