After reading all the "expert" reviews about the Outlander, an SUV shopper would pretty much be discouraged to buy one and look somewhere else. Anyway, I test drove a Subaru Forester, Honda CRV, Nissan Rogue, and the Outlander. I ended up choosing the 2019 Outlander SEL over the other SUVs I test drove. The Outlander was the quietest and most comfortable one to drive. It has the most features that come standard with the SEL. The second row reclines and can be moved forward and back and it has a third row that can come in handy. The Outlander also had the best price and warranty and even offers road side assistance. The Rockford Fosgate sound system with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto connectivity sounded much better than the sound sytems of the other SUVs I test drove. It has almost been 3 months since I purchased the Outlander and have no regrets. I love driving it and enjoy listening to the awesome stereo. Although the 4 cylinder won't blast you to 60 mph in a few seconds, it is quite adequate and delivers better than expected gas mileage. It rides smooth and is very quiet contrary to what I what car magazines experts have said. Any complaints? Maybe one which is the deletion of the spare tire and putting a tire repair kit instead. But other than that, I find it hard to agree with what car expert reviewers say about the Mitsubishi Outlander. I'm happy I chose the 2019 Outlander and continue to feel the same way as time goes on owning and driving the Outlander.

Our 1500 hundred mile trip to pick up our college student from North Dakota and back was a real pleasure. We were in one situation that required braking and maneuvering to avoid an accident would not be possible had we been in our previous vehicle. Thanks Mitsubishi. The gas milage did not even suffer with all the cargo and wheight of 3 adults. around 29 to 30 mpg. Ya know

* UPDATE2* 45k miles on odometer, no major issues, however some minor issues tho: 1. Interior panel fitment, panels around passenger and back seat got lose and started rattling in couple area. Not sure why. 2. Touch panel is not responding on certain area. No fix 3. Window motor getting loud 4. This car doesn’t like any accessories attach to the OBD2 port. Warning light is up. Leave it open. Drivability is still good and I’ve been happy with some minor mods I’ve done to make this wagon more fun to drive daily. Drive assist sensors are helpful but not always working. Visibility all around is excellent. I’ve done some distance driving more than 6 hrs and I didn’t get tired at all. *UPDATE* 6k mile driven since my last review. It’s going strong and everything I wrote preciously still stands. Improvements I’ve done: 1. I have removed the 3rd row seats. It’s stupid and I didn’t buy because it’s a “7 passenger cross”. This wagon should market as a 5 passenger compact in the US (and I get it, in Japan CRV also has a 3rd row, but this is America we drive longer) 2. I installed a KN filter and improved performance significantly, much smoother and better acceleration. MPG and cruise speed have also improved. Highly recommend. 3. I have installed an OEM spare tire kit where it belongs. Had to struggle with Mitsubishi parts center but they sold kit and I installed it in my garage, easy task anyone can do and gives you extra peace of mind. I’m close to 40k and follow OEM maintenance schedule, so far so good. It’s a nice compact wagon and gets the job done. SAWC is really awesome, hugging corner (tho leans a lot due to high CG) yet never feel unsafe, mitsu rally heritage seems still alive in this wagon. I often compare it to previous Gen Subaru Forrester or outback…Outlander isn’t Subaru but does what Subaru does at less cost. ————————- I was in market for used wagon or cross, went to a big rental car sale office and test drive CX5 touring, Compass trailhawk, RAV4 XE, and outlander, all with mid 20 to low 30k miles. Since it was a rental place they had one trim level for each model. Long story short I came home with outlander SEL AWD. It was cheapest and most feature packed. CX5 came close but trunk space was not as big, otherwise CX5 might have won (a lot nicer sporty cross) Here’s what I think of this former rental wagon after driving 2k miles: It’s a decent wagon, lots of safety features are standard and simply works (not as many false alarm as my wife’s 2019 CRV) It has ample power to get up on highway and cruise at 85mph - don’t listen to “expert” who thinks cross needs clock 0-60 under 7sec. Handling is okay, definitely solid on high speed but at low speed steering feel loose. Shock absorption is adequate. Lean on corner is noticeable but yaw control is superb in AWD mode in wet condition, it’s actually a joy. Seat high enough and nothing to obstruct view. I get about 27mpg on highway commute, that’s decent for AWD. Engine room has good elbow room I was shocked considering this is very narrow wagon. Infotainment simply works - nothing complicated very straight forward big diagram and link up with my apple car play no hassle. Again, for a Japanese brand this is refreshing (take a note Subaru!) ....and this is Made in Japan. Other than luxury brand like Lexus, most “Japanese” cross on the street are made in USA. Cons - this is not a third row suv, don’t buy this for that purpose. Design is so old school you wonder this is some Eastern European car from Cold War era. Leather seat feel cheap and not sure why carbon ish panels. No spare tire. Dealer is limited and parts tend to be more expensive. I would not buy this wagon brand new, there are better cross out there that’s competitively priced. But for a used well maintained cross or wagon, Mitsu is worth a look.

My daughter bought an Outlander Sport in Oct of 19. She hasn’t had it very long. She and a co-worker were leaving work a week ago, and she got hit from behind. Luckily they walked away with being banged up and bruises. The lady hit them coming off the freeway at a high rate of speed. It totaled the car but they are ok. The only complaint I have is when Finacing the vehicle is we wanted GAP protection and the finance guy wouldn’t give it to us, saying the car is worth more then owed on it. Not true! So now she will be without a car till then. I just wanted to let you guys know that your vehicle did what it was suppose to do in the situation she was in.
