We have owned this small suv since 2016...bought it mainly for the price, warranty, luggage space and 3rd row seating. The mileage is slightly lower than the advertised 32 or 33 mpg,, we average about 25+/- in the city and 27-30-31 on the highway..and we are frar from being an aggressive driver...Actually, the only drawback of owning a small SUV of this sort is the roadnoise at speeds over 65...I have replaced the factory tires with a good set of michelin tires, in which the road handling, driving comfort, and road noise was greatly improved.

A lot of SUV for the money. Comfortable to drive, easy on gas (30 mpg highway), great technology, excellent road handling and towing. Best overall SUV I have owned.

Update: After owning the car for a year and 12K miles, I would recommend the '16 Outlander to anyone looking for a compact SUV and 7 seats. The car is unparalleled in snowy weather, and is still a smooth drive at 70 MPH (eat your heart out Jeep owners). I can't think of a single other car this size that would get 34 MPG on a highway trip to Dulles Intl. airport that doesn't have some sort of electrical engine. The 4 cylinder engine still has enough power to get you on the highway! This is still a new car, so I have yet to encounter any major mechanical issues. I will do my best to update this review if/when I do. I have owned this car for 6 months, and this is a summary of my experience. Do not compare this car to a Mercedes, as so many professional reviewers are in the habit of doing. I obtained my 2016 Outlander for just over 22,000USD brand new, which is over $10,000 less than other SUVs in its class, with the SAME exact feature set. It's shameful what other brands are charging, and the price gouging stops with Mitsubishi. Starting with the outside of the car, I adore the design, it's reminiscent of a Lexus RX series, but design is subjective. I bought the 4cyl model and it gets me 27MPG in inner-city daily driving, and over 30MPG on the highway (no I'm not exaggerating.) This car is roomy in the drivers' seat for a 6'1" Male. I love the headroom, something other cars were lacking, and my knees can breathe as well. Many reviewers complain about the third row...this costs half as much as a Toyota Highlander, and goes twice as far on a tank of gas!! Those seats are intended for short adults or kids. I have taken teens and short adults on hour long road trips with no complaints. The only issue with the back seats is no ventilation, something Mitsubishi needs to work on, make sure you cool the car down before stuffing people back there. Kick the car into lock mode and it powers through snow. I had to go to work in 8 inches of snow (24/7 365 workplace) and this car drove right through it, I did not get stuck while driving in the tracks of other trucks. This car is a comfortable ride for a crossover SUV. It is not a Lincoln, or a Mercedes, but it IS loaded with features such as power windows and heated leather seats, it costs less than a Honda Accord and comes with more utility. The warranty length is fantastic (5-year/60K mile full vehicle, 10-year/100K mile powertrain). The lights work very well and LED DRLs are standard. Fog lights were a must for me and those are effective as well. If you want a car to carry you and a few others year round, that can be packed to the gills with either people or stuff on occasion, this should definitely be on your test drive list.
