Very Happy Customer!

2021 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport 2.0 SE 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl CVT)
This is a great little SUV that's very stylish and the ride is as smooth as any other SUV I've driven! I have the 2021 Outlander SE and everyone who has seen this brilliant red beauty loves the looks of it! I'm not sure why the so-called experts don't approve, but if you ask those who own one what they think the overwhelming majority will tell you that they are very pleased with the … Outlander!
It even has a spare tire!

2020 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport 2.0 BE 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl CVT)
After an exhaustive search, I selected a 2020 Outlander Sport Black Edition 2.0 as the best vehicle to meet my needs. My search was guided by these non-negotiables: A spare tire A premium stereo with a subwoofer Minimal or no center console Comfortable driver seat No sharp edges on driver’s door or center console One might think these features are easy to find but they are most … definitely not! I am replacing a 2015 Honda FIt EX which I discovered has the most god-awful uncomfortable driver seat on the planet. The seat is numbingly cruel on long drives. Additionally, the hard plastic edges on the console and driver’s interior door panel conspire to create discomfort. It’s basically an iron maiden on wheels. Swearing off Hondas, my research for all my non-negotiables was frustrated. The Toyota RAV4 came closest, but the premium JBL stereo was repeatedly slagged by users as cheap and underpowered. I was inspired to check out Mitsubishi because my spouse’s 2008 Mitsubishi Eclipse is reliable and has an impressive Rockford Fosgate stereo. I discovered the full size Outlander had a very modest center console and enough space for my legs. Unfortunately, the newer models forgo a spare tire; a deal breaker. Moving down to the Outlander Sport, I found everything on my list in the Black Edition 2.0. I decided to purchase a 2020 since it appears the 2021 model year will no longer offer the Rockford Fosgate stereo in any trim level. Count me among the other consumer reviewers who are baffled at the hate grenades lobbed into Mitsubishi’s foxhole. The Edmunds reviewer throws about bludgeoning descriptors such as underpowered, unrefined, aggravating, rough, cheap, jumpy, skittish, harsh, floaty, noisy, lacking, and subpar. The reviewer intimates that if you somehow still decide to purchase the Outlander Sport after this over-the-top beatdown you cannot possibly have fun driving it unless you have an overactive imagination and your discernment for driving is overruled by your pricing requirements. The reviewer’s assessment is loaded with unwarranted hyperbole. Speaking as one who finds many cars over-engineered, I find the Outlander Sport to be refreshingly intuitive and reliable. I do concur with the Edumunds reviewer on the following: The Outlander Sport offers the basics as a compact SUV: Well-equipped for the price Excellent warranty coverage Appealing ergonomics Easy to operate, with clearly marked controls and an easy-to-read instrument panel Large door openings to the front seats Easy to learn connectivity that is simple to set up Acceptable cargo utility, the load floor is flat and expansive, and the tall roofline makes loading easy Dated but sturdy No-nonsense Dependable If you discern these latter descriptors sound like what you would imagine a great SUV to be, do yourself a favor and check out the Outlander Sport. You can use the money you’ll save purchasing the Outlander Sport doing something fun other than driving. 1st year update: 21,000 miles. Best miles per gallon: 29. All good with the glaring exception of the failure of the multi-functional display. I lost about 50% of the pixels at 18,000 miles. Dealership removed and replaced it and I've had no other issues. 2nd year update: 36,000 miles. I've noticed the multi-functional display can be hard to read during the day. The catalytic converter was sawed off while parked overnight at a Holiday Inn Express in Chicago. $4,000 dollars to fix and much time wasted. I found out a Mitsubishi dealer can weld a shield over the converter to prevent theft. I recommend you have one installed before you drive off the lot. I still recommend the car
WHAT THE FRI&&&%>K IS WRONG WITH EDMUNDS?

2022 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport 2.0 ES 4dr SUV (2.0L 4cyl CVT)
This is my 2nd Outlander sport. The first one was trouble free. for thousands of miles and many YEARS. The 2022 we got last week we like ALOT, but it is too soon to tell how reliable it will be. I will come back in about a year to update. Why does Edmunds bash this vehicle ""every year"" why?? We like our Outlander Sport, it was thousands less than the Toyota, VW & Honda AND with a … longer warranty too. Our Outlander sport has good looks, roomy interior EXCELLENT BRAKES & a good crash rating. The "stuff" Edmunds complains about is mostly subjective things like the rough ride, the "cheap interior" & slow acceleration this  is all """subjective"" we get up to 70 mph easily & we find the ride comfortable & smooth. As for the interior. The Outlander Sport is no Cadillac BUT the dash is well laid out, All the controls are easy to reach, we think it looks great, Sure Mitsubishi has not changed the dash for a few years BUT on the plus side you can get parts easier because it's been around a while. All in all, for a SUV in the 30,000-dollar category, the Outlander Sport holds its own very well with its competitors. Again, all the things even I mentioned are subjective. Edmunds should at the very least tell potential customers that much of their review is subjective and your opinions may vary.  What's wrong with you Edmunds? Why hate on Mitsubishi's Outlander Sport? Edmunds the interior comfort, engine drone, lack of acceleration & stiff ride are all subjective. I know a few Outlander Sport owners like me that feel the Outlander Sport has a comfortable ride. CVT also gets up to 70-80 mph with decent acceleration & has a decent look and feel interior with excellent heating and air conditioning. We are very happy with Mitsubishi & at least in my review unlike Edmunds, I can say our review is mostly subjective. This is our opinion of the vehicle.
Awesome quality and value. Still going strong.

2019 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport 2.0 LE 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl CVT)
Our fifth Mitsubishi in six years. Over 200k miles of perfect, worry free driving. Fantastic quality rivals any other brand. Can't beat the value either. Performance and handling are good. Fit and finish excellent. Yes, there are other brands that feature higher performance, but be ready to pony up another $6-$8k above a Mitsubishi.....I recommend Mitsubishi to anyone who will lend an … ear. And the warranty is awesome too. We found the LE to be a special value. Convinced yet? You should be. Best value anywhere. Updated 01/01/20. Still perfect. Still awesome. Highly recommend.
