MT Puts New VW Golf R and Mitsubishi Lancer EVO Head to Head

VW-Golf R-and-Mitsubishi-Lancer-EVO-Head-to-Head

In its latest episode of 'Head 2 Head', MotorTrend magazine took the recently launched in the U.S. Volkswagen Golf R hot hatch and compared it against the latest generation of the Mitsubishi Lancer EVO.

While the two cars share many similarities including, but not limited to, their compact sized bodies that are motivated by 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engines driving all-four wheels, they also prove to be very different on the road and the track.

Before you check out the video after the break, we'd like to remind you that the Volkswagen Golf R has 256hp and is priced from $33,900, while the Mitsubishi Lancer EVO gets 291-horses with prices starting from $34,495.
