The compact Mitsubishi Outlander supplies room for seven and is this brand’s most important model. The Outlander plays in a highly competitive segment and still offers an optional V6 engine where four cylinder engines dominate. It's also one of the most affordable three-row vehicles on the market.
What's New for 2017
Just one year removed from its most recent overhaul, the 2017 Outlander reflects several important changes of note. A shark fin antenna is now standard as is a 6.1-inch touchscreen and a rearview camera.
New optional features include Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility, and automatic high beams. A 360-degree camera system and a heated steering wheel are available. Base ES models now offer available all-wheel drive. All models come with bucket seats in the first row, a split-folding 60-40 bench seat in the second row, and a 50-50 split-folding seat in the third row.
