Larger, more refined and more technologically advanced, the critically acclaimed 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander offers the prestige and safety that have always been synonymous with the Mitsubishi brand. Prestige because the Japanese automaker’s vehicles enjoy international renown, and safe because the sport utility vehicle avails of cutting-edge technology and a warranty like no other in the automotive industry.
If you’re familiar with the old Outlander, forget everything you think you know about this vehicle. The new version of the Mitsubishi Outlander is not only larger and more sophisticated but also features a new type of design that distinguishes it from the rest. While it shares its platform with the Nissan Rogue, it clearly and proudly exhibits its own unique personality.
An agreement with the other members of the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance enables Mitsubishi to offer a vehicle with modern content. Mitsubishi developed the platform, the drivetrain and the chassis components—as well as the safety and connectivity technologies—in collaboration with the other automakers in the group.
However, in response to the needs of its brand, Mitsubishi has succeeded in creating a vehicle with an innovative style. Mitsubishi engineers had to combine different components to give the Outlander a unique identity with one-of-a-kind drivability.
For example, they appropriated the design from a concept vehicle presented at the 2019 Geneva International Motor Show. It inspired the 2023 Outlander and has since made its way to the other vehicles of the Mitsubishi family. This is especially true in the case of the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross.
These changes are particularly apparent in the front fascia, which employs the Dynamic Shield design concept characterized by angled multilevel headlights (three levels in this case) and an enormous chrome-framed grille.
The overall form of the Outlander is squared off and muscular. The shape is full of character, highlighting the high-flat hood, high belt line and darkened pillars, giving the impression of a floating roof. As soon as you glimpse the vehicle, you can immediately identify it and recognize its personality.
Not everything is a matter of style; it’s also a question of versatility. By utilizing this platform, Mitsubishi has enlarged the Outlander to offer improved third-row seating. Slightly larger than the previous model, the vehicle now measures 4.71 meters in length and 1.86 meters in width, with a wheelbase of 2.70 meters. All together, these new dimensions give the 2023 Outlander a more assertive look than ever. With its three rows of seats, the Outlander can accommodate up to seven passengers.
In the second row, the seats can move several centimeters, offering plenty of room and comfort to each occupant.
The reconceived style extends to the inside, as well. Besides being more elegant, the interior is distinguished by its functional practicality. In addition to the enhanced quality of the materials, the Outlander features an intuitive 9-inch touchscreen and a 12.3-inch configurable digital instrument panel. There, you’ll find Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, a wireless smartphone charging pad and two USB ports (USB-A and USB-C). A high-quality sound system and navigation are also available.
Under the hood of the 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander lurks a 2.5 L four-cylinder direct injection engine capable of producing 181 horsepower and 181 pound-feet of torque. Paired with it is an X-Tronic continuously variable automatic transmission that does a great job of simulating an eight-speed.
The Outlander’s CVT works exceptionally well, as it features INVECS-III technology. This proprietary Mitsubishi system learns your driving style and aligns transmission response accordingly. This makes all the difference in the world!
The all-wheel drive versions utilize Mitsubishi’s Super All Wheel Control (S-AWC) and Active Yaw Control (AYC). The latter is more efficient than the majority of all-wheel drive systems in its class. With the aid of a button, you can select different terrain modes, and the system will automatically adapt to the characteristics of the driving surface.
With numerous safety features, improved soundproofing and exceptional handling, the 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander is a leader in the compact SUV category. And with the addition of a 10-year warranty—the best in the country—it’s a choice that’s as appealing to your heart as it is to your pocketbook.
Now, it’s up to you to visit Saint-Léonard Mitsubishi, where you’ll discover all the qualities of the 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander.
