Car and Driver reviews the 2010 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback Ralliart and compares it against the Subaru WRX. They write:
“Compared with the similarly situated Subaru Impreza WRX five-door, the Sportback sits on almost the same wheelbase but is nearly seven inches longer than the WRX, giving it heavier front and rear overhangs in side profile. There’s less cargo room behind the seats in the Sportback, 14 cubic feet versus 19 in the WRX, but more space if you fold the seats: 47 cubic feet against the Subaru’s 44.”
“At 237 hp, it’s notably down on power compared with the 265-hp WRX and feels it, partly because of the Sportback’s higher curb weight.”
“Running a mountain twisty, the Sportback proved it’s a good balance of ride comfort and handling, even better than the WRX, which skews to rather soft and roll prone.”

Pretty weak article man. As a person looking to buy a car this had very little worth in reading. Next time please write it more from a buyers perspective with the mindset that people are reading this to decide which car to buy.
