Coming up with an unused name for your new vehicle can be hard, and without brand name recognition, selling it can be even harder. That’s why Mitsubishi can’t be faulted for reusing its Outlander moniker on its new CUV, and adding “Sport” to a smaller version of a vehicle is a time-honored tradition. But unlike most, the 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport earns its name by ditching almost all the faux off-roader gingerbread that’s fashionable in the segment these days in favor of a taut, sports-car look more befitting the brand that built the beatified Evo line.
