Used 2009 Mitsubishi Outlander Consumer Reviews
Love Everything About It!
Really glad we went this vehicle. The HID headlights, rain-sensing wipers, and bluetooth is really cool. But the best part is the Fosgate stereo and the sporty feel/power. Got 29 mpg on the way home from the dealership. It was 100 miles city/hwy.
Great small SUV
I have had my 09 Outlander for 2 weeks now and it's great. Handling is very good, I like the steering. Navigation is good but sometimes complicated to use, stereo has great sound strong bass. Fuel economy is just ok, but I expected that, I average around 23- 26MPG (highway). I enjoy driving it to work and all the features work great so far, glad I decided to buy it.

A g vehicle at a great price!
I bought this outlander ES (FWD) base + Conv. pkg in Black on 28 June 2009. This vehicle runs great and performs as expected or better considering that this is a 4 Cyl engine. Fuel economy on a 70 mile straight highway was about 29 mpg, and my usual driving of a 20 mile trip (80% Hwy) gives about 25-26 mpg. There seems to be a very faint buzzing sound, I need to look into that. Lots of cargo room, and comfortably seats 3 avg. adults in the back seat. Seats are nice and firm and are very comfortable on long drives. I am happy with this purchase.
ES AWD Review
This is my second day with this "CUV" and can tell already (as long as no problems come up) that it will be in the family for at least the next 5-6 years. It's comfortable, rides smooth, and it has all the space in the world as far as cargo. We test drove the comp. (rav4, santa fe, equinox, forester) and this was it - the Outlander took the prize.

I wanted a small SUV for under $25k that excelled on looks, warranty, standard features, and Edmunds Editor's Rating. Of the 10 vehicles I compared, the only one that landed in the top 3 on all 4 of my lists was the Outlander SE. Then I test drove the Outlander and the Honda CR-V EX, which is often regarded as the leader in this segment. The CR-V is more refined (quieter engine and ride, nicer interior materials) and has a better 5-year resale value. But I was swayed by Outlander's equipment, warranty, and appearance. As for resale value, by that time I'll be 70 and have bigger things to worry about. Bottom line: This is a nice vehicle, especially if you don't need a plush interior.
