Evo delivers 'point and shoot' performance on the track
A sensible overall package?
Since it’s a sedan, there’s even room to bring a few of your buddies along for the ride, as well as your favourite portable barbecue and cooler for some trackside lunch and beverages. There’s plenty of headroom to achieve the ideal driving position with a helmet on, too.

Where performance is concerned, your writer’s complaints were near-nil, though the TC-SST transmission did issue a friendly warning that it needed to be cooled down before overheating after a number of hot laps. A manual transmission is available, if that’s more your cup of tea.

Ultimately, the Evolution uses advanced software and hardware to put its full talents instantly at the driver’s fingertips after a few lessons on track driving technique and etiquette. Where instantly-accessible driving dynamics and performance for the aspiring weekend racer are concerned, it hits the nail square on the head.
