The Mitsubishi Lancer EX 2000 Turbo ECI is an iconic sports car from the late 1970s and early 1980s, representing one of the most outstanding examples of Japanese automotive engineering dedicated both to rally racing and everyday driving. This model gained fame between 1980 and 1985 during the World Rally Championship (WRC), where it featured a remarkably advanced engine for its time, equipped with electronic fuel injection and turbocharging — ECI (Electronically Controlled Injection). Thanks to its presence in rally special stages, such as the Safari Rally and the 1000 Lakes Rally, the Mitsubishi Lancer EX 2000 Turbo became a legend of automotive history in the late Cold War period and the 1980s.

Hasegawa's model is known for its perfect detailing, excellent part fit, and the ability to faithfully recreate features such as engine accessories, exhaust, cabin interior, and chassis components. All parts are made of high-quality plastic, which is easy to work with and paint. The kit includes decals that allow you to finish the car in either a factory look or a rally livery.

The model does not include paints or glue — we recommend dedicated modeling accessories, which are also available in our store.

Build difficulty level: 3/5 – Recommended for intermediate modelers and 20th-century car enthusiasts. An excellent choice for collectors of rally cars and fans of building scale model passenger cars.

We recommend this set for its historical value and the high-quality craftsmanship characteristic of the Hasegawa brand. It's an excellent proposition for every Japanese automotive and car modeling enthusiast!
