MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER

What’s Up With Mitsubishi?

March 2, 2020 by admin Leave a Comment

2018 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport
The Outlander Sport is one of three Mitsubishi utility vehicles.

Go to Specifications: Mirage | Outlander Sport | Eclipse Cross | Outlander


As an early supplier of small vehicles to the Chrysler Corporation, Mitsubishi Motors has sold cars on its own stateside for nearly four decades. At one time, the company was a notable player in the market and even had a manufacturing plant in Normal, Illinois, for building its vehicles – originally in partnership with Chrysler, then on its own.

But much has changed since. The DiamondStar partnership with Chrysler is long gone and, likewise, the Illinois manufacturing plant is now owned by Rivian, who will begin building electric trucks and SUVs there by the end of 2020. Consequently, all current Mitsubishi models are imported from Japan.

Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance

Even Mitsubishi’s structure has changed as the company is now controlled by Nissan and it has become the third partner in “the Alliance,” which also includes Renault. In the U.S., we have yet to see Mitsubishi acquire Nissan- or Renault-sourced vehicles to add to its product line, as the Alliance is in jeopardy and Nissan itself seeks to distance itself from the Carlos Ghosn era.

These days, Mitsubishi has nearly completed its transition to an all-SUV maker, with three distinct models and one car line serving the American consumer as well as one plug-in hybrid electric vehicle. Its famed Lancer and Evo compacts are long gone as is the i-MiEV, the company’s early experiment in full electrification.

2020 Mitsubishi Product Line

For 2020, Mitsubishi has Eclipse Cross, Outlander Sport, and Outlander utility vehicles as well as the tiny Mirage, a subcompact sedan/hatchback offering. Although there is nothing remarkable about the four models, each one comes with many of the tech and safety features customers want, along with a robust warranty plan to keep customers in the fold.

Looking ahead, it appears Mitsubishi will bring back the Evolution, its top-end Lancer model, but perhaps only in Evo form. Also, the company is developing a larger utility vehicle to slot above the Outlander, although the next-generation Outlander itself will have a larger footprint. Other changes include electrifying the entire lineup, which means PHEV and pure EV variants of every model should be offered.

In all, Mitsubishi is exactly where the company wants to be at this point, with new products on the way. That Mitsubishi has managed to survive in a highly competitive market is quite a feat. We’ll see what the next chapter brings and whether the story continues to unfold positively for this Japanese brand

Driven: 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport

November 17, 2017 by admin 5 Comments

Mitsubishi’s smallest SUV makes a statement.

2018 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport
Wet or dry, the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport offers a distinctive look.

Straddling the white space between subcompact and compact SUV is the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport, a model big on value in a segment where prices continue to rise. The 2018 Outlander Sport comes in three grades, has available all-wheel drive, and provides two engine choices.

Charting the Changes

The current Outlander Sport rolled out way back in 2011. For 2018, it has undergone a number of changes, including an updated continuously variable automatic transmission paired with the 2.4-liter engine, a revised front grille, and a new rear fascia. Interior changes include a new center console design and a seven-inch touch panel color screen. Advanced driver-assist technologies are available.

Select Your 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport

2018 Mitsubishi Outlander SportThe 2018 Outlander Sport is available in three grades: ES 2.0, SE 2.4, and SEL 2.4. Front-wheel drive is standard and all-wheel drive is available across the model line.

Mitsubishi supplies two engine choices corresponding to the name of each grade. A 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine makes 148 horsepower, while a slightly larger 2.4-liter engine generates 168 horsepower. Both engines work alongside a continuously variable automatic transmission. A 5-speed manual gearbox is standard on the base front-wheel drive model.

Standard features include halogen headlights, folding and heated side mirrors with turn signal indicators, roof rails, LED tail lamps, and 18-inch alloy wheels. Inside, you’ll find front bucket seats, a 60/40 split fold-down rear seat, a tilt and telescopic steering column, automatic climate control, cruise control, full power accessories, a four-speaker audio system with HD Radio, a USB port, and a rearview camera. All models come with seven airbags, including a driver’s knee airbag and hill start assist.

Outlander Sport ES 2.0

2018 Mitsubishi Outlander SportPriced from $21,235 including a $940 destination charge, the base grade comes with a manual transmission. For $1,200 customers may upgrade to an automatic transmission. Add another $1,500 to obtain all-wheel drive.

This model offers seven standard exterior colors, including Diamond White Pearl ($200 extra). You have your choice of two interior fabric colors.

Numerous package options are for the choosing, including an LED Illumination Package ($440) adding floor illumination, tailgate light and interior light; a Protection Package ($495) bringing in scuff plates, a rear bumper plate and a bright tailgate protector. Standalone features include a rear large spoiler ($310), tonneau cover ($150), and roof rack crossbars ($315).

Outlander Sport SE 2.4

2018 Mitsubishi Outlander SportThe mid-level SE costs $23,835. This model includes the carpeted floor mats and a tonneau cover. Individual items available include remote engine start ($545) and LED fog lights ($350).

Other upgrades include LED running lights, the larger engine, keyless entry with push-button start, Bluetooth wireless technology, and a 7-inch color display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone compatibility. Smartphone compatibility is a big deal for consumers — Mitsubishi offers it for no extra charge, while some luxury brands charge $300 for an upgrade!

Outlander Sport SEL 2.4

2018 Mitsubishi Outlander SportMitsubishi prices the top-of-the-line SEL from $25,335. Upgrades here include high-intensity discharge (HID) headlights, black roof rails, leather seating surfaces, and an 8-way power driver’s seat.

The SEL Touring Package ($2,000) brings in automatic high beam headlights, forward collision mitigation, lane departure warning, a panoramic glass roof with adjustable LED track lighting, and an enjoyable 9-speaker 710-watt Rockford-Fosgate audio system. The track lighting was particularly surprising — at first, I thought it was sunlight, then I discovered the lights.

On the Road: 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport

2018 Mitsubishi Outlander SportMy test vehicle was the top-of-the-line Outlander Sport SEL AWC, an all-wheel drive model. Mitsubishi equipped it with the SEL Touring Package and added a tonneau cover and carpeted floor mats. The price topped out at $29,110, including destination.

I’m glad that Mitsubishi offers two engines with this model. The base engine doesn’t seem powerful enough, while the 2.4-liter engine holds its own. Press hard on the accelerator and you’ll skip down the highway entrance ramp at a decent clip. The Outlander Sport stays poised and the ride is adequate, although the suspension doesn’t absorb bumps as well as I would have liked. That’s par for the small SUV course, however.

2018 Mitsubishi Outlander SportThe engine is not nearly as noisy as some are in the segment, but my main complaint was wind noise, which not only seeped in through the front windows, but seemed to be leaking through the windshield. Either thicker laminated glass or an improved sealant would help here.

Mitsubishi calls its all-wheel drive system 4WD, which isn’t correct despite what the button says at the base of the center stack. Push that button once and all four wheels are engaged. Push it again and the rear axle locks, supposedly to supply better handling when cornering.

2018 Mitsubishi Outlander SportAs with most any all-wheel drive SUV, your off-road antics should be limited to gravel roads or well-worn trails, while avoiding climbing over rocks, branches and other obstacles. That said, the Outlander Sport slips through shallow mud puddles with ease and with 4WD Lock engaged, you probably won’t get stuck. There is always a low gear to select if you do get stuck, but it isn’t the same as the 4-Lo with a transfer case offered on four-wheel drive systems.

Overall, I found the Outlander Sport offered decent comfort thanks to the adjustable driver’s seat covered in leather. As for rear seating passengers, you can fit three there in a pinch, but two would be best. Still, the interior room is on the small size for this class.

Competitive Set

The Outlander Sport’s short wheelbase (105.1 inches) is slightly longer than the Nissan Rogue Sport, while its length (171.9) comes in about a half-inch shorter. The Mitsubishi also compares favorable size-wise with the first-generation Volkswagen Tiguan.

Because of its in-between size, consumers would do well by comparing the Outlander Sport to such subcompact models as the Honda HR-V, Mazda CX-3, Chevrolet Trax, Ford EcoSport and Nissan Juke. Among compact models you’ll find the Toyota RAV4, Ford Escape, Honda CR-V, Chevrolet Equinox and the Nissan Rogue. The standard Outlander shares the same wheelbase, but is about a foot longer overall.

2018 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport

Parting Thoughts

I’ve been hard on Mitsubishi in the past, especially as the automaker has reduced its product offerings, including dropping the Lancer, especially the performance Evo. Until last year, its very survival seemed in doubt — industry analysts expected Mitsubishi to go the way of Daihatsu, Isuzu, and Suzuki, three other small Japanese brands that quit the ultra-competitive and very unforgiving US market.

Since then, Mitsubishi has joined the Renault-Nissan Alliance and likely has its own fortune tied to Nissan specifically. We haven’t seen new products derived from that relationship yet, but the automaker’s new lease on life should give consumers the confidence they need to consider Mitsubishi. Add in one of the best warranty packages in the industry (see specifications below) and you have yet another reason to consider this brand.

About the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander

May 10, 2013 by admin 1 Comment

2014 Mitsubishi Outlander

The automotive market is filled with compact crossover sport utility vehicles, a segment typically identified as five-passenger front- and all-wheel-drive models. Top models include the Toyota RAV4, Ford Escape, Honda CR-V, Chevrolet Equinox and the Nissan Rogue. The Mitsubishi Outlander also competes in this segment, bringing an all-new model to the market for the 2014 model year.

History

It was not until 2003 that Mitsubishi introduced the Outlander, a model that showed up several years after the compact SUV segment took hold. Late to the party, the Mitsubishi Outlander has had to play catch up, something that it hopes its third-generation model will finally accomplish for the 2014 model year.

The first generation Mitsubishi Outlander was a five-passenger model, sold in front- and all-wheel-drive configurations. Powered by a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine paired with a four-speed automatic transmission, the 2WD Outlander was rated a combined 21 mpg, poor by today’s standards, but close to the mark of what its competitors were offering at the time.

In 2007, the second generation Mitsubishi Outlander was introduced, bringing with it two important changes: a standard 3.0-liter V-6 engine and room for seven. Beginning in 2008, a four-cylinder engine was added to the lineup, paired with a continuously variable transmission and rated a combined 25 mpg.

2014 Mitsubishi Outlander

The 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander represents the third generation of this model line. Three-row, seven-passenger seating remains standard and the previous engine choices return with some refinements. Like other compact models offering three rows of seating, the last row is best occupied by small children.

The all-new Mitsubishi Outlander is sold in ES, SE and GT versions. The ES is front-wheel-drive, the GT is all-wheel drive while the SE can be had in either driveline configuration. Both ES and SE versions are outfitted with a 16-valve 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine. This engine, of aluminum construction, is rated at 166 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 162 foot-pounds of torque at 4,200 rpm. It is paired with a continuously variable transmission.

Choose the Mitsubishi Outlander GT and your SUV is powered by a 24-valve, 3.0-liter V-6 engine paired with a six-speed automatic transmission. This engine, also of aluminum construction, is rated at 224 horsepower at 6,250 rpm and 214 foot-pounds of torque at 3,750 rpm.

Outlander Fuel Economy

EPA estimated fuel economy is 25 mpg in the city and 31 mpg on the highway for a combined 27 mpg. These numbers are for the FWD Outlander. Choose the AWD Outlander SE and your fuel economy rating measures 24 mpg in the city and 29 mpg on the highway. The Outlander GT delivers an estimated 20 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway.

Regular grade gasoline is recommended for all models except the GT which runs best when fueled with premium grade gasoline. All models are equipped with a 16.6-gallon fuel tank, giving the Mitsubishi Outlander a maximum range of approximately 515 miles. That’s nearly enough fuel to take you from Denver to Salt Lake City on one tank of gasoline.

Mitsubishi Outlander Specifications

The all-new Mitsubishi Outlander sits on a 105.1-inch wheelbase. This crossover model is 183.3 inches long by 70.9 inches wide by 66.1 inches high. The Outlander has front and rear tracks measuring 60.6 inches and offers an 8.5-inch ground clearance.

Front headroom measures 40.6 inches to 38.4 inches in the second row and 35.7 inches in the third row. Front leg room comes in at 40.9 inches to 37.3 inches in the second row and 28.2 inches in the third row. Front shoulder room measures 56.4 inches to 56.0 inches in the second row and 50.6 inches in the third row. Hip room comes in at 52.6 inches in the first row, 51.7 inches in the second row and 39.4 inches in the third row.

Outlander passenger volume measures 128.2 cubic feet. Standard cargo capacity is 10.3 cubic feet expandable to 34.2 cubic feet with the third-row seat folded down. Curb weight ranges from 3,274 to 3,571 pounds. Towing capacity is 1,500 pounds across the model line.

Key Model Features

Standard equipment for the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander includes halogen headlamps, automatic headlights, heated side mirrors, rear privacy glass and 16-inch steel wheels. Trim line upgrades bring in high-intensity discharge headlights, side mirror turn signal indicators, chrome beltline molding and 18-inch alloy wheels.

Inside, the Mitsubishi Outlander offers standard cloth seating surfaces with leather optional. An LCD display, dual-visor vanity mirrors, front map lights, a rear cargo area lamp and adjustable front seats are standard. Also available is an 8-way power driver’s seat.

Automatic climate control, steering wheel mounted audio controls, a tilt and telescopic steering column, cruise control, power windows and door locks, and two 12-volt outlets are standard. Also available are a nine-speaker, 710-watt Rockford-Fosgate audio system, a seven-inch display navigation system, Bluetooth connectivity, a rearview camera, and a power remote tailgate.

Outlander PHEV

For the first time, Mitsubishi will sell a plug-in hybrid model. The Outlander PHEV features a pair of 60-kilowatt electric motors and a lithium-ion battery pack. This model goes on sale in 2014.
