Video: 2007 Dakar Rally Winner Mitsubishi Pajero EVO

Formerly known as the Paris-Dakar Rally, the Dakar Rally is considered to be the toughest, the most dangerous but also the most famous off-road rally course in the world. However, that doesn’t seem to be a problem for Mitsubishi, which managed its seventh consecutive victory last Sunday with the Pajero EVO which was driven by the French crew of Stephane Peterhansel and Jean-Paul Cottret.
Note that from the 185 cars, 247 bikes and quads and 85 trucks that entered the race, only 109 cars, 132 bikes and quads and 60 trucks managed to make it to the finish line in Dakar after a shortened route of 7,915km, of which 4,309km were competitive. via Carscoop

The EVO is one great car. For the money you pack a lot of punch. On the show Top Gear Jeremy Clarkson tried to keep up with a Murcielago and it did it with no problems whatsoever. Simplicity meets functionality and Mitsubishi has done well for themselves making a car like this one.

Ops I got it mixed up with the Lancer EVO lol. Even then anything with the EVO name is a good car for its purpose.
