Used 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander SUV Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander is a rarity in the compact SUV class because it comes standard with a small third-row seat, bumping passenger capacity to seven. There are eight available trim levels: ES, SE Special Edition, SE, SE Black Edition, SE Ralliart, SEL, SEL Black Edition and SEL 40th Anniversary. All Outlanders use a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine (181 horsepower, 181 lb-ft of torque) and a continuously variable transmission (CVT), and front-wheel drive is standard. Most trims offer Mitsubishi's Super-All Wheel Control (S-AWC) as the optional all-wheel-drive system, though it's standard on the SE Ralliart and SEL 40th Anniversary. Feature highlights for each trim include:

ES
The entry-level Outlander ES comes standard with:

  • 18-inch alloy wheels
  • LED headlights with automatic high-beam operation
  • Dark-tinted rear privacy glass
  • Push-button ignition
  • Dual-zone automatic climate control
  • Cloth seats
  • 40/20/40-split folding second-row seats
  • 50/50-split third-row seat
  • 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system
  • Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration
  • Six-speaker audio system

Several advanced driving aids are also standard. They include:

  • Forward collision warning with automatic braking (warns you of an impending collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)
  • Blind-spot warning with rear cross-traffic warning (alerts you if a vehicle is in your blind spot during a lane change or while in reverse)
  • Rear automatic braking (brakes if sensors detect an imminent collision with an object behind the vehicle)
  • Lane departure warning (alerts you if the vehicle begins to drift out of its lane)
  • Rear parking sensors (alert you to obstacles that may not be visible behind the vehicle when parking)
  • Driver attention warning (issues an alert if sensors determine you are becoming fatigued)
  • Rear-seat reminder (alerts you to check the rear seat before exiting the vehicle)

A Convenience package is optional for the Outlander ES. It adds:

  • 20-inch alloy wheels
  • Mitsubishi Connect with Safeguard and Remote Services (a subscription-based service that provides support in emergencies and allows you to control certain vehicle functions from your phone. Includes a 24-month subscription.)

SE Special Edition

  • Mitsubishi Connect with Safeguard and Remote Services (a subscription-based service that provides support in emergencies and allows you to control certain vehicle functions from your phone. Includes a 24-month subscription.)
  • Wireless charging pad
  • Front parking sensors (alert you to obstacles that may not be visible in front of the vehicle when parking)
  • Surround-view camera system (gives you a top-down view of the Outlander and its surroundings for tight parking situations)
  • Mi-Pilot Assist system — partially automates some driving actions. Consists of:
    • Adaptive cruise control (maintains a driver-set distance between the Mitsubishi and the car in front)
