Which Outlander does Edmunds recommend?
Edmunds' Expert Review
Overall rating
6.6 / 10The 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander is one of the least expensive SUVs you can buy with a third-row seat. It also comes with an appealing set of features and offers an optional V6 engine. So far, so good, right? But if you research this Mitsubishi more closely you'll realize that it comes up a bit short.
For one, the Outlander isn't particularly rewarding to drive. The base four-cylinder engine is underpowered and noisy. You can get that V6, but fuel economy is poor, and it's only available on the most expensive trim level. And as for that third-row seat, well, it's small, even for children.
If you need a three-row crossover on a budget, the Outlander might be worth a look. But in one of the most hotly contested segments, just about every manufacturer is making a competitive crossover, and most of them are more refined. We recommend shopping around before settling on the 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander.
2019 Mitsubishi Outlander configurations
The 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander is a seven-passenger crossover SUV that comes in four different different trim levels: ES, SE, SEL and GT. The LE trim level has been dropped for 2019.
The base engine in the Outlander is a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine (166 horsepower and 162 pound-feet of torque) paired with a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT). Front-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive is optional.
Standard features for the ES include 18-inch alloy wheels, LED running lights and taillights, heated mirrors, rear privacy glass, cruise control, dual-zone automatic climate control, a leather-wrapped tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, second-row air vents, a 60/40-split folding second-row seat that slides and reclines, a 50/50-split third-row seat, a rearview camera, voice controls, Bluetooth connectivity, and a six-speaker sound system with a 7-inch touchscreen display and a USB port.
Stepping up to the SE gets you foglights, keyless ignition and entry, power-adjustable front passenger seats, heated front seats, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration, a second-row USB port, and an upgraded audio system with satellite radio. The SE also has an optional Convenience package that includes a sunroof, power-folding side mirrors, and blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert.
The SEL starts with the SE's content and adds automatic headlights, power-folding mirrors, automatic wipers, a power liftgate, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, leather upholstery, and an auto-dimming rearview mirror.
The SEL also has some optional equipment that you can't get on lower trim levels. The Premium package adds LED headlights and foglights, a sunroof, a heated steering wheel, a 360-degree parking camera system, and a nine-speaker Rockford Fosgate audio system. The SEL Touring package includes the Premium package contents plus automatic high beams, adaptive cruise control, a forward collision warning system with automatic braking, and a lane departure warning system.
The GT comes standard with all of the above options except the advanced safety technologies, all of which are included in the optional GT Touring package. Exclusive standard features on the GT include a 3.0-liter V6 (224 hp, 215 lb-ft) paired with a conventional six-speed automatic, all-wheel drive, chrome exterior beltline accents and steering-wheel shift paddles.
Trim tested
Each vehicle typically comes in multiple versions that are fundamentally similar. The ratings in this review are based on our full test of the Mitsubishi Outlander SEL (2.4L inline-4 | CVT automatic | AWD).
NOTE: Since this test was conducted in 2016, the current Mitsubishi Outlander has received some revisions, including the addition of new infotainment features and revised steering and suspension tuning. Our findings remain applicable to this year's Outlander, however.

Mitsubishi Outlander vs. the competition
2019 Mitsubishi Outlander
2018 Honda CR-V
Mitsubishi Outlander vs. Honda CR-V
The CR-V sets the bar for the small-SUV class. While the Outlander seems to be very similar to the CR-V on the spec sheet, the Honda's high level of refinement really sets it apart. It's more powerful, more composed over bumps, and more stable when going around turns.
Mitsubishi Outlander vs. Kia Sorento
Larger and more expensive when fully loaded, the Sorento offers a bigger, more powerful V6 engine along with a more useful third-row seat. The base Kia is well-equipped, but you'll need to check off all the options boxes in order to compete with an option-heavy Outlander.
Mitsubishi Outlander vs. Ford Escape
The Escape might be getting on in years, but it's still a solid all-around choice in the compact SUV segment. The Escape's optional turbocharged 2.0-liter engine packs a greater punch than the Outlander's V6. You miss out on the third row if you get the Ford, but it can be downright fun to drive on a curvy road.

See your car's valueThe 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander is a moderately priced choice for consumers looking for a small to midsize SUV with three rows of seats. It's been mildly updated for 2019, in both style and content, after a more thorough redesign in 2016. And even though that third row is really only suitable for small kids, the extra capacity, with the seats up or down, could be a deciding factor for families shopping on a budget. In addition, the Outlander also is available with a V6 engine, something many of its competitors lack. But even with those advantages, the Mitsubishi lags behind its rivals in the red-hot compact SUV market.
The interior is definitely the Outlander's strongest selling point. In addition to seven-passenger seating, buyers will like the quality materials, clean design, available driver assist features and decent cargo capacity. One sticking point may be the infotainment system's user interface, which is a little dated and not as easy to use as the systems on most of the Outlander's competitors. Optional equipment includes auto high-beam LED headlights, a suite of advanced safety technology, a 360-degree camera, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto functionality.
The standard powerplant for the ES, SE and SEL trim levels is a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 166 horsepower and 162 pound-feet of torque and comes linked to a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT). The GT model comes with a standard 3.0-liter V6 that puts out 224 hp and 215 lb-ft of torque and comes mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. The GT is equipped with standard all-wheel drive, a feature that is optional on the first four trim levels.
On the road, the Outlander handles well enough for a vehicle in its class, but most drivers will probably find engine performance to be subpar compared to the competition, especially with the standard four-cylinder unit. But neither engine is particularly lively, and the four-cylinder version is both underpowered and noisy. As a vehicle for city commuting, the Outlander could work fine, but there are likely better choices for highway travel or serious off-road use.
Fuel economy is another area where the Outlander is a little below average for its class. The base two-wheel-drive model with the four-cylinder engine is EPA-rated at 27 mpg combined (25 city/30 highway). The GT trim, with all-wheel drive and the V6 engine, is rated at 22 mpg combined (20 city/27 highway).
The base ES model comes fairly well-equipped with such features as heated side mirrors, alloy wheels and dual-zone automatic climate control. But higher trims offer such features as leather seating, adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a premium sound system. But only the top-of-the-line GT gets the more pleasant V6 engine. Whatever you're interested in, let Edmunds help you find the right 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander.

Should I lease or buy a 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander?
Is it better to lease or buy a car? Ask most people and they'll probably tell you that car buying is the way to go. And from a financial perspective, it's true, provided you're willing to make higher monthly payments, pay off the loan in full and keep the car for a few years. Leasing, on the other hand, can be a less expensive option on a month-to-month basis. It's also good if you're someone who likes to drive a new car every three years or so.
