I’ve been riding this cross-over Mitsubishi Outlander 8 months now and I enjoy every time I get behind the wheel. I wanted three features in my car 4 wheel drive, preferably not all time, automatic with a sporty drive and cruise control.
About Mitsubishi Outlander: The suspension is excellent, although a bit noisy. The complaint I have is that the rear left seat vibrates when driving over rough patches, the service engineers haven’t been able to fix it. I think it just needs some additional grip at the base harness/lock system. The point in having an automatic system is supposed to keep your left hand free, however the turn indicators are on the left of the steering wheel. The controls are not invert able.
The Mitsubishi Outlander engine is very powerful, use the paddle shifters for quick overtaking on the highway.
Tips: You can use the cruise control system to drive the car(speed/slow down) with just your thumb and give your right foot much deserved rest during long drives.
Mitsubishi Outlander Pros:
CVT Transmission
Audio System
Paddle Shifters
4 wheel drive
Spacious Rear Seating
Cruise control.
Mitsubishi Outlander Cons
NO Roof-Rails
No Sun- roof
Left hand side turn indicator controls
I found the heated seat useful when I have a backache. Also, the car comes with a blow away Rockford Fosgate 8.1 channel system, you will like it if you are a music lover.
Overall, Mitsubishi Outlander is a great car comes with tons of bells and whistles as standard equipment that most other cars at a comparable price don’t even provides as options.
I’ll highly recommend this car.
