This week, The Gated Shift tackles a rally legend: the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution V and VI, including the iconic Tommi Mäkinen Edition. Join us as we explore the history of these incredible machines, from their development as homologation specials for the World Rally Championship to their dominance on the world's toughest rally stages. We'll dive deep into the technology that made the Evo so special, including the legendary 4G63 engine and its sophisticated all-wheel-drive system. We'll also celebrate the achievements of Tommi Mäkinen, the four-time WRC champion who became synonymous with the Lancer Evolution. And we'll discuss why the Evo V and VI are considered by many to be the peak of the Evolution lineage, and speculate on the future of the Evo.
