One of Ogier's wins, in 2009, came when the rally was part of the Intercontinental Rally Challenge rather than the world championship.
The 37-year-old reigning world champion took a maximum 30-point haul from this year's asphalt event in the French Alps, run without spectators due to the COVID-19 pandemic, after also winning the final power stage for five bonus points.
"The car has been amazing. I really enjoyed the weekend, it has been such a pleasure. I almost have tears in my eyes now and it was a good decision to do one more year," said the Frenchman, co-driven by compatriot Julien Ingrassia.
Ogier had planned to retire last year but decided to stay for one more year because he wanted to leave after a proper season and not one ravaged by the pandemic.
Estonian Ott Tanak, whose rally ended on Saturday, had led after Thursday's first two stages and then Evans was in front on Saturday.
Finland's Kalle Rovanpera was fourth for Toyota with Spaniard Dani Sordo fifth for Hyundai and Japana's Takamoto Katsuta sixth in a Toyota.

Rockies, Cardinals discussing Nolan Arenado trade .
An Arenado acquisition would represent a considerably more seismic shift in their otherwise reserved approach. Arenado is owed $199M over the next six seasons.Acquiring Arenado would be a considerable about-face for a Cardinals club that, up until Thursday, hadn’t shown any signs of spending this winter. The Cards declined a $12.5MM club option on Kolten Wong and have been in a months-long staredown with franchise icons Yadier Molina and Adam Wainwright despite both having a clear preference to return to St. Louis. The first hint of a change came Thursday night, though, when the Cards agreed to bring Wainwright back on a one-year deal worth $8M.
