For all the hype they didn't sell that well. Much like the muscle cars of a generation before, the target demographic could barely afford them. And that's before they tried getting insurance. Too many owners either put them in a ditch. Or destroyed the engines and transmissions by half assing the upgrades for more power. Finding a used Evo , even just a few years old, that was unmolested was very hard. Same with the sportier Neons, Escorts, and Acura/Hondas of the era.

I remember looking at the MR edition in the showroom of our late Mitsubishi dealership back then. Evo always was a cool little car with its WRC race history, legendary 4G engine, tunable ECU and just the overall reputation for being insanely quick for a 2 liter four cylinder. But even back then, there was no way I would have dropped over 36 thousand for that little car. It had better do more than go fast and handle great to justify that kind of a price tag. There were just too many other more desirable vehicles at the time with similar MSRP that offered a whole lot more. Maybe worth it to some back then, but not to most.

It’s a shame since Mitsubishi just announced they discontinuing the Mirage which is the last car fully made on their one platform. From now on it’ll be crossovers on Nissan platforms

It’s a zombie brand now. Mitsubishi doesn’t even develop their own cars anymore, they’re just rebadged Nissans and Renaults. Mitsubishi says it was because they made more money selling their current lineup compared to their lineup back when they had the EVO. I call that BS honestly. Look at them now. About to leave the US in the next 10 years due to weak sales imo even with current Outlander sales.

Dude even with the EVO in the lineup back in 2014 and even 2015 they were selling horribly as a whole, around 50,000 cars per year. Now, they don’t have the EVO and are selling much better, around 85,000 in 2022 and back in 2019 they sold 121,000 cars, and that was without the new Outlander. It shows you that it’s not the car enthusiasts that control the market. It’s sad, but it’s the truth. I hope Mitsubishi brings back the EVO, and it may happen because they can co-develop cars with Nissan, similar to how Toyota and Subaru are jointly developing cars such as the GR86/BRZ twins. Speaking of those cars, people like to complain about how lousy they are performance wise but they should be happy at the same time that a car like that exists in today’s market.

It's truly sad that Mitsu gave up on the Evos!!! You can almost guarantee that in the next 5 years we will have a new Evo "SUV!" It's sad. And to top it off, it will be an EV or some crap.

The Mitsubishi Pajero Evolution already exists, in two distinct generations. But Mitsubishi stopped making SUV's, and in its place, they now make crossover vehicles.

Nearly 20 years ago, this Evo 8 would still looks great in today's market. Test drive this MR back in the days, the handling was fantastic. Too bad the sleazy car salesman almost made me want to vomit during the test drive.
