Priced at €23,750, this model offers an interesting proposition for those seeking a spacious and versatile vehicle, without great sporting pretensions but with the reliability that characterizes the Japanese brand.

Driving experience
Behind the wheel, the 2016 Outlander with its 150 hp gasoline engine and CVT automatic transmission offers a smooth and relaxed driving experience. Don't expect dazzling acceleration (11.7 seconds from 0 to 100 km/h), but rather a linear and comfortable power delivery, ideal for long journeys and daily use. The suspension, McPherson type at the front and deformable parallelogram at the rear, filters road irregularities well, providing a good level of comfort for all occupants. The electric power steering is precise and facilitates maneuvers in the city, while on the road it offers an adequate sense of stability. It is a car that invites calm, to enjoy the journey without rushing.
Design and aesthetics
The design of the 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander, although not groundbreaking, is robust and functional. Its lines are clean and its front, with the 'Dynamic Shield' grille, gives it a distinctive and modern presence. The dimensions (4695 mm long, 1810 mm wide and 1710 mm high) give it an imposing image, typical of a family SUV. The 18-inch wheels with 225/55 R18 tires complement its aesthetics. Inside, the layout is practical and the materials, although not luxurious, are durable and well-fitted, designed to withstand the passage of time and family use. The 550-liter trunk is a strong point, offering a large loading capacity.
Technology and features
In terms of technology, the 2016 Outlander incorporates what is necessary for comfortable and safe driving. Its 2.0-liter, 150 hp gasoline engine, with indirect injection and Stop&Start system, seeks to optimize consumption (6.2 l/100km combined WLTP) and reduce emissions (144 g/km of CO2). The CVT automatic transmission, although not the sportiest, contributes to smooth running. In terms of safety, it has ventilated disc brakes at the front and solid discs at the rear, and electric power steering. Although it is not a showcase of the latest innovations, it meets the standards of the time, offering a simple and effective user experience.
Competition
The 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander competes in a very crowded segment. Its main rivals include models such as the Nissan Qashqai, the Hyundai Tucson, the Kia Sportage, the Honda CR-V, and the Toyota RAV4. Compared to them, the Outlander stands out for its interior spaciousness, its generous trunk, and an attractive price-quality ratio, especially considering the official discount of €4500. While some rivals may offer a bolder design or a greater technological load, the Outlander positions itself as a sensible and reliable option for those who prioritize space and durability.
