Mitsubishi Outlander (07 on) - Review

Review by Simon Harris on
Last Updated: 03 March 2011
The second-generation Outlander is the best car Mitsubishi has produced in years. Nearly all models come with seven seats, making it a good choice for larger families, while the interior is well built and durable. There's plenty of cabin space, it's very good to drive and comes well equipped - even in entry-level trim. Unfortunately it isn't quite as refined or as practical as other offroaders with a narrow load space and a firm ride. The extra seats are also very cramped and offer little comfort. On the plus side, it's available with a 2.0-litre diesel engine from Volkswagen which offers strong performance and useful economy. The Citroen C-Crosser and Peugeot 4007 are both based on the Outlander.
