SuperSix Evo and Hi Mod apparently come from the same mould and have the same geo, but the Hi Mod uses more "high modulus" fibres.
That part is true, the previous SuperSix series came from similar mode, just different carbon.
Bit like how some manufacturer have 725, 853 and 953 tubing offering on the exact same frame (not including Di2).

@Chris.
SuperSix is an older now discontinued model.
SuperSix Evo and Hi Mod apparently come from the same mould and have the same geo, but the Hi Mod uses more "high modulus" fibres, making it lighter and slightly comfier? Sub-700g vs 950g for SSE.
Still lots of SSE bikes on sale at the moment.
"EVO Nano: The lightest EVO frame utilizes advanced high modulus BallisTec Construction and nano tech resins for maximum weight savings
EVO Hi-MOD: The gold-standard for elite race frames.High modulus fibers are used to precisely tune stiffness, while high tensile strength fibers and high impact resins deliver high strength.
EVO Carbon: By using a higher percentage of intermediate-modulus fiber to tune the stiffness, we are able to expand the EVO line with a super high-performance, sub-950 gram frame. Offered both with and without internal rear brake routing."
