What engine is in a Mitsubishi Lancer ES?

How powerful is the engine in the Mitsubishi Lancer ES? I used to drive a Mitsubishi a long time ago, but it seems like the brand has evolved a lot since then. I’m considering buying one again.

The engine in a
Mitsubishi Lancer ES
is a 2.0-liter MIVEC DOHC 16-valve I-4, which is considered standard for Lancer models. The Lancer ES is pretty powerful and handles very well, but it also burns a lot of fuel.
It’s worth noting that you’ll need to buy an older model if you’re interested in the ES because the Lancer was discontinued in the United States. The newest edition available to U.S. car buyers is the 2017 model.
However, a used Lancer ES is a good choice for your next vehicle. It’s considered fairly reliable and fun to drive, so in theory, you’ll be able to enjoy it for years to come.
