The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IV (CP9A) — produced from 1996 to 1997, powered by the legendary turbocharged 2.0-litre 4G63T inline-four engine producing 280 hp in Japanese domestic market specification — the maximum output permitted under the Japanese domestic market gentleman's agreement — and 373 Nm of torque, paired with a five-speed manual gearbox and featuring Mitsubishi's extraordinary Active Yaw Control (AYC) all-wheel drive system — introduced for the first time on the Evolution IV and representing one of the most significant and technically ambitious all-wheel drive system developments in the history of the Japanese performance car industry, using an electronically controlled rear differential that could actively distribute torque between the rear wheels to enhance cornering performance and stability in a way that was genuinely revolutionary for a production road car of its era — was one of the most technically sophisticated and dynamically accomplished Japanese performance cars of the late 1990s. The Evolution IV's extraordinary World Rally Championship heritage — with the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution WRC car driven by the legendary Finnish rally driver Tommi Mäkinen winning the 1996 World Rally Championship Drivers' title, the first of Mäkinen's extraordinary four consecutive WRC Drivers' Championship titles from 1996 to 1999, establishing him as one of the most celebrated and dominant rally drivers in the history of the World Rally Championship and cementing the Lancer Evolution's status as one of the most successful and celebrated rally cars in WRC history — gives the Evolution IV an extraordinary motorsport heritage and emotional resonance that has made it one of the most beloved and collector-desirable Japanese performance cars of the 1990s. The deep black finish gives this Pop Race PR64-227 die-cast an aggressive, purposeful, and visually commanding presence that perfectly accentuates the Evolution IV's rally-bred aerodynamic bodywork and wide-body stance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA must-have for Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IV enthusiasts, CP9A generation devotees, 4G63T turbocharged engine admirers, Active Yaw Control AYC technology collectors, Tommi Mäkinen WRC championship heritage fans, 1996 World Rally Championship history collectors, Japanese 280hp gentleman's agreement era admirers, Pop Race PR64 series enthusiasts, and serious die-cast collectors seeking a premium Pop Race miniature of one of the most celebrated and rally-bred Japanese performance cars of the 1990s.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The ECH Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46046546002106,"sku":null,"price":1999.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0742\/1850\/4378\/files\/POP-RACE-PR64-227-Mitsubishi-Lancer-Evolution-EVO-IV-Pyrenees-Black-Pearl-P.webp?v=1782298957","url":"https:\/\/theechstore.com\/products\/pop-race-164-mitsubishi-lancer-evolution-iv-cp9a-black-pr64-227","provider":"The ECH Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
