Mitsubishi Outlander
Mitsubishi's three-row compact SUV, prioritizing value, warranty coverage and available all-wheel control.
3 TRIMS ABOUT THE MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER
Mitsubishi Outlander at a glance
The Mitsubishi Outlander is a compact SUV with an unusual advantage: a small third row at a price where most rivals stop at five seats. The refreshed 2026 gasoline model moves to a turbocharged 1.5-liter mild-hybrid four-cylinder, paired with a continuously variable transmission, and buyers can choose front-wheel drive or Mitsubishi’s S-AWC system. The rear-most seats are best treated as occasional accommodation for children, but they add flexibility without forcing owners into a much larger vehicle. A well-finished cabin, strong warranty coverage and composed ride are central to the Outlander’s appeal. It is not the quickest option in the segment, and shoppers who regularly carry seven adults should look larger. Cariary views it as a value-conscious all-rounder: distinctive enough to avoid feeling generic, practical enough for family use and particularly sensible when available all-wheel control and long-term ownership coverage matter more than headline performance.
