The Exterior – It’s confident, it’s tough, it’s majestic, it’s the all-new Outlander
The Outlander's exterior design portrays a confident and strong personality, achieved through the “Bold Stride” design concept. To express a bold aura and a sense of presence and stability, the strong, horizontal-themed proportion from front to rear, is contrasted with broad surface lines paired up by sharp edges and complemented with a large-diameter 20-inch alloy wheels and overhanging fenders that highlight the wide body.
The front of the all-new Outlander enjoys Mitsubishi Motors’ distinctive next generation Dynamic Shield which aids in enhancing the vehicle’s front look, increasing protection, and improving performance. The sharp looking front combination lights which house daytime running lights and turn signals are positioned higher to provide better visibility for other drivers as well as pedestrians. On the contrary, the low-positioned head lights provide better distant lighting without impairing the vision of oncoming drivers.
Performance – Rugged engineering maximizes performance and driver confidence
The newly developed platform of the Outlander greatly improves collision safety and achieves a high level of steering stability. For the first time ever, Mitsubishi Motors has used an ultra-high tensile strength steel sheet with hot stamping around the cabin to create a high-strength cabin structure with little deformation while also achieving weight reduction. Adopting connected cyclic structures around the engine compartment and cabin increased flexural and torsional rigidity of the body over that of the previous generation. The multi-link suspension and dual pinion electric power steering enhance the overall ride comfort and provide operability with a direct, linear feel. This greatly improves traceability during cornering as well as linear stability and provides driving pleasure.
Available in 2WD and 4WD options, the all-new Outlander enjoys a newly developed 2.5L gasoline engine which produces an improved maximum power of 181/6,000 hp/rpm, 8.9% better than previous generation, and a maximum torque of 244/3,600 nm/rpm. Fuel efficiency has also improved by 2.6%[1] over the previous model, thanks to the 8- speed sport mode continuously variable transmission. The step shift control that changes speeds crisply like a multistage automatic transmission is employed to provide a powerful and agile acceleration, the driver can immediately feel the difference when depressing the accelerator.
Used in the center coupling device that conducts front and rear torque distribution, the 4WD models enjoy an electronically controlled 4WD incorporating a hydraulic clutch operated by an electric motor, in addition to the improved S-AWC integrated vehicle dynamics control system. The Brake AYC (Active Yaw Control) is adopted on the rear wheels as well, to provide front and rear wheel-distributed-control.
The all-new Outlander has several drive modes that allow the driver to select the vehicle driving characteristics that are optimal for a variety of operation styles and driving situations via a dial located in the center console. There are six modes for the 4WD options and five for the 2WD ones. Drive modes include “Normal” for city commute, “Tarmac” for sporty driving on paved roads, “Gravel” for high traction performance and stability on unpaved roads, “Snow” for snowy and other slippery roads, and “Mud” to increase road handling ability on muddy roads, in deep snow and similar conditions. The drive modes bring out the high road handling of the 4WD models and increase the potential of 2WD models to provide a sense of security and reliability. When a mode is selected, an image representing the driving situation is displayed in the meter to allow the driver to intuitively select a mode.
The Interior: A comfortable sanctuary for the whole family
The linear instrument panel with a powerful horizontal tone gives the vehicle a spacious and roomy look while producing a functional form that makes it easy to see the changes in the vehicle’s position. The upper part is covered with a soft padding wrapped in leather, and intricate stitching to project a high-quality feel. The door panels feature a large area of door inserts, and the same soft padding as the instrument panel and floor console sides is used to create a luxurious and comfortable space.

Saddle tan accent color and semi-aniline leather seats are also available as an option for the P-Line. The H-Line features black suede combination seats and piano black interior material, while the M-Line offers light gray or black fabric material seats and piano black interior material.

The display is also equipped with a customization function that allows for information to be freely combined and exhibited. The other high-contrast meter is a 7-inch multi-information display which shows simple arrow navigation in the central information display, it utilizes the high recognition advantage of an analog display while producing a high-quality look with a stereoscopic dial and decorated indicator needle.
Available on certain trims, a large 9-inch screen for the center display which is equipped with Smartphone-link Display Audio navigation system.

The driver can manually turn the HUD ON/OFF and customize the displayed content. Multiple types of information can be displayed simultaneously. In addition to driving information and warnings, such as lane departure, the displayed content can also be navigation and audio information through a link with the center display.
