Mitsubishi Galant Fortis Ralliart 240Hp

What most of us know as the new Lancer Ralliart will be sold in Japan under the name Galant Fortis Ralliart. Essentially a toned down version of the Lancer EVO X, the Galant Fortis Ralliart is equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine delivering 240Hp and 343 Nm (35.0 kgm) of maximum torque.

The engine is matted to the EVO X’s dual clutch semi-automated SST transmission with different ratios for 5th and 6th gears to give improved fuel economy in high-speed cruising on longer trips. Finally, the Ralliart features a full-time 4WD driveline with Mitsubishi's Active Center Differential (ACD). The Galant Fortis Ralliart goes on sale at affiliated dealerships throughout Japan today with a price tag of 2,982,000 Yen ($27,700). -Image gallery after the jump
