Mitsubishi's 4 cyl motor has no power but fuel consumption is like V6. Interior is combination of cheap plastic (cheap plastic is everywhere: steering wheel, dash, seats etc) and "attention to details" such as shifting knob. I woudn't care if this car had some power. Depreciation... This car will not re-sale well. Most annoying thing is: its remote control - you need to press Open twice to open passenger's door because if you pressed once, it will only open driver's door. During that, car makes annoying horn noise. Welcome to Mitsubishi. Gas mileage is too high city 22, Hwy 25 on empty. I traded-in my dying car and Mitsubishi dealer was happy to take it. Next step is to find a car I really want and trade in my Outlander Sport (there is nothing.... nothing sporty).

It’s ok
Test drove the base model. Nice LED lights, power interior, back up camera, scotch guard fabric, alloy wheels with locks. Great leg room in rear, 60/40 split seats do not recline though.

Ok SUV
Gave it two Stars because it’s pretty nice looking but that’s it. No power seats, no gps drives like crap. You would think as much as it costs it would come with these two things. Cheap plastic all over. It’s not worth that much money. Walk away….better yet run!! Go get something better.

I love my 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport LE!
I swore I'd never own a crossover SUV. I am a tall person with really bad knees due to my military service and anything less than a full-size SUV meant pain in my k red anytime I got out of the vehicle. However, full-size SUVs are going the way of the dodo, and the ones left are so expensive now. I'd been looking at different cars for two years, nursing another few months out of the Jeep Liberty I'd been driving for several years, and just didn't like the appearance of the ones I was seeing. As important as everything else is about a car, for me... The appearance matters, too. One fay, I happened to drive past a local Mitsubishi dealership as a truck was there unloading cars and I saw a red one that looked fantastic, in my opinion. I went home and immediately looked up the website to see what car it was. They had others on the lot, so they already had one like what I was looking for. The Outlander Sport LE had everything I was looking for, plus a few more bells and whistles than I usually spring for when buying a car, and the price was right in the middle of the price range I was seeking.. The mileage rating were great, the safety ratings were great, reviews from other past owners were surprisingly positive given you rarely see these on the road or in commercials (and what's up with that, Mitsubishi???) All in all, it seemed like a solid car that people enjoyed owning. I woke up early the next morning, a Saturday, got pre-approved for the loan, took a tall friend with me (I am also tall, but I wanted the friend so they could help me with the roominess of the back seat) and was at the dealership when they opened their doors. I did a test drive over about an hour over a variety of roads and came away extremely happy with the car. I will say the transmission can be a little sluggish, particularly when going uphill, but taking your foot off the gas to give it a chance to "catch up" for a second or two helps in that regard, but otherwise, the car's far more impressive than Edmunds and Car & Driver would have us believe. I'm not a novice driver. Until I got out of the Air Force and drove exclusively SUVs because of my knees, I was strictly a muscle car w/a stick shift person who has lived and driven all over the world. The 2023 Outlander Sport LE still impresses me. I live in a semi rural area and the car handles the curvy roads well, with no concerns about it not holding the road on the curves. The steering is tight but comfortably so and because of rhis, it's a joy to drive. The inside comfort is such I feel I can do a long drive and not feel as though i've just been best up. The comfort bells and whistles, including the steering wheel controls for the radio and phone, are simply the cherry on top of this ice cream sundae. What I enjoy the most is routinely getting between 25 and 30 MPG, as I drive both highways and city street to work everyday. The pain at the pump is no more. Even with higher gas prices right now, yesterday, with my dash light telling me I needed gas, I filled the car up for just under $40, which will last me a full two weeks. Finally, total strangers are constantly telling me how much they love my car, both the color (red) and the body style. So long as Mitsubishi keeps making this car, and they keep the same body style, I will continue to drive these cars until I take my last breath. I would also recommend this for newer, young drivers, teenagers. With better than average safety ratings and how great it is in gas, this would be a good car for them. It vs not so powerful they would have trouble handling it, but it's still a good looking car at an affordable price.

Don't listen to the "experts!"
This is my 2nd Mitsubishi. The first (Galant) lasted me 10 years and had 160,000 miles on it when I traded it in. I wanted an SUV and found a great deal on a Chevy Equinox. After two back-to-back Chevy Equinoxes, I went back to Mitsubishi. I found a used 2020 Outlander Sport and have been driving it for 2 years now. I love it. It's a great little SUV for getting around in. Has plenty of room, comfortable seating, and more get up and go for merging onto the highway than my previous Equinox. I don't know why the experts don't like it, but it is an affordable, reliable, cute, easy to operate, fun to drive little vehicle that does not break the bank.
