I've owned my Outlander Sport for a little over a month. Its OK. Acceleration is ehh, the sound system isn't the best, when my window is down it rattles and when I have the Apple Car Play hooked up it sometimes doesn't work properly. I love he HID headlights very good visibility at night and the gas mileage isn't bad for an SUV. Compared to its contenders its a great value, but does have some "quarky" negative things about it. The CVT transmission is just OK I feel when I accelerate it lags a bit. It drives very "trucky", can definitely feel it when you hit a bump.

This SUV is perfect if you love value. This ride has been amazing since day one. Handles well, looks great, awesome gas mileage and still able to load all my things inside.

My 2017 Outlander Sport is the first "import" I've ever owned. Probably owned or driven [because of my work] over a hundred different vehicles and this is hands down my favorite. I bought an end-of-the-year base model with the 2.0 and manual 5 speed for $15,000. out the door price. The standard equipment on this car is impressive. Power windows, cruise, stereo with cd player, hands free Bluetooth for phone and that standard Mitsubishi warranty that's second to none. The first new vehicle I ever bought had AM radio as an option to be negotiated…..otherwise, just a blank plug in the dashboard! These cars were assembled in Illinois until late 2015, but moved their operations back to Japan after the U.S plant closed. I had done my research on Mitsubishi before that and thought I was buying an American built car- but, once I took it for a test drive, I knew I was going to buy it regardless. Stable ride, plenty of power with the 5 speed, quiet, nice climate control, great heater, availability of parts should be fine with Nissan being an international partner. They've been making automobiles since 1917 so..... not new to the game. Love driving this car!

Don't pay attention to the "expert" reviews

This is actually my wife's car and we've owned it now for 8 months. We considered tons of other vehicles, from the crosstrek, to a rav4, and escape in the same range. What sold us was the price. With my corporate discount we got a brand new 4x4 out the door for $17k, no other 4x4/awd setup came close to that price. I couldn't justify an extra $6k for a competitor's option. Being in the Lake Erie snow belt we needed ground clearance and 4x4 to get through the 17ft of yearly snow. With a set of smaller 16" winter rims/nokian tires it's gone through anything including a 2ft snow drift in the driveway. Mileage wise is not bad at 24 city/29 hwy, my older forester barely cracks 20mpg city. One negative is a car seat in the back is pretty cramped, we have to move our seats up pretty far to travel with our 4yr old niece.
