It's even more aggressive-looking than the current Evo; the designers point to the massive grille opening and NACA duct on the bonnet as evidence of "the huge quantities of air it draws in." This is a broad hint that the Evo's new engine will be a fire-breathing turbocharged unit.

Concept-X uses a clutchless six-speed auto-manual transmission with paddle shifters mounted on the steering wheel. Also hinting at its rally-bred heritage, it has aluminium for the bonnet, bootlid, wings, roof and front and rear door panels to bring the weight - and centre of gravity - right down.
