GSR is available with a five-speed manual transmission, Recaro sports seats and Enkei wheels and optional spoiler, HID headlights and expands stereo.

The updated MR includes the new Twin Clutch Mitsubishi’s SPORTRONIC Shift Transmission (TC-SST), Eibach springs and Bilstein shocks forged, lightweight BBS wheels and discs, and extra insulation and optional navigation, better audio with Sirius Satellite reception, and leather upholstery.

Both trim levels feature the new all-aluminum 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine with 295 hp and 300 pound-feet of torque MIVEC4 and Super All Wheel Control (S-AWC) drive system.

The S-AWC system regulates torque and braking at each wheel contains a number of acronyms: ASC (Active Stability Control), ACD (Active Center Differential), AYC (Active Yaw Control) and Sport ABS, ABS system designed for aggressive driving. The biggest difference from the outgoing car is the large number of yaw sensors in the system that kept everyone on the Evo X on its intended path. The S-AWC system can be set for three different surfaces: asphalt (Standard), ice and debris

The Twin Clutch SST in MR seems like Audi / VW ’s DSG system, odd and even gears on separate links for rapid shifts between gears and no torque loss. Shift of the TC-SST will be with aluminum shift paddles on the steering wheel or controls when in manual mode, and the engine computer in automatic mode. The system has three modes: Normal, Sport and S-Sport, the latter for the most aggressive, quick shifts.

Security measures include increased Impact Safety Evolution (RISE) unibody system for power distribution in the frontal and side crash and protect the fuel system of the rear impact, frontal and side impact airbags and knee airbags plus driver.
