Hasegawa 20801 - 1/24 Mitsubishi Lancer GSR Evolution III 1995 Hong Kong-Beijing Rally Winner

This injection-moulded 1/24 assembly kit recreates the Mitsubishi Lancer GSR Evolution III campaigned in the 1995 Hong Kong-Beijing Rally, presented as a subject-specific display model with an emphasis on external authenticity.

The Evolution III was a mid-1990s development of Mitsubishi's homologation specials for Group A rallying. Key period features include broadened body panels, updated suspension geometry, and the turbocharged four-cylinder with all-wheel drive that defined the series. This kit represents a rally-prepared example typical of long-distance stage competition of that era.

Exterior focus and assembly guidance

The kit highlights accurate body lines and rally-specific panels. Parts arrive on injection-moulded sprues intended for conventional glue-and-paint assembly, with engraved panel lines and detail to support scale-accurate finishing. Builders should allow time for paint work and decal placement to replicate the 1995 event livery and expect the usual minor fit adjustments common to injection-car kits.

Finishing tips and display use

Proportions suit display on a 1/24 base or alongside contemporary road and rally subjects. Careful surface prep, masking and layered paint will be needed to match two-tone rally markings. The kit makes a sound platform for extra detailing or modest modification for display variants.

Technical specifications

  • Scale: 1/24
  • Assembly: injection-moulded plastic model kit
  • Material: plastic

A focused 1/24 plastic kit for builders and collectors who want an authentic external replica of a 1990s rally car; ideal for display builds and period-accurate finishing.

The kit prioritises exterior accuracy with engraved panel lines, rally bodywork and defined trim. Small-scale detail is present, but fine finishing and weathering from the builder will enhance realism.
Standard modelling tools suffice: sprue cutters, fine files, plastic cement, brushes or an airbrush, plus masking tape and decal setting solution for livery work.
The release emphasises the outer shell and rally-specific bodywork; interior and engine detail are minimal compared with the exterior focus, so check the box art or manufacturer notes if in-cabin detail is important.
Plan the sequence: prime, block in base colours, mask for two-tone areas and apply decals after gloss clear. Test-fit parts and decals before final gluing to avoid alignment issues.
