The name or term "Evac" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Evac (disambiguation).
Evac is an Autobot from the Aligned continuity family.

Blistering speed and lightning-fast reflexes make Evac more than an effective courier. They make him a frighteningly powerful warrior. His speed often catches Decepticons by surprise, allowing him to strike and move before they can return fire.[1]

  • Evac (Cyberverse Legion, 2012)

Legion Class Evac is an unchanged release of Transformers: The Ride Legion Class Evac. The toy was available in three different packaging variants, all containing unchanged toys: one version was available in Transformers: Universal Studios packaging, sold exclusively at (where else?) Universal Studios theme park stores. This version is co-branded Universal Studios and Cyberverse. Another version was available in Cyberverse "Series 2" packaging, using the template for the Transformers: Prime-based Series 2 packaging style but lacking the "Prime" moniker. This version was available at general retail in the United States.
While those two versions can be argued to represent the movie-ride character rather than a Prime incarnation, the European market release of the Series 2 version and the TakaraTomy release cause a problem because of how this wiki classifies "characters": both packages brand the toy with the Prime moniker, thereby (arguably) creating an Aligned version of Evac.
