This Year's Model Updates:

Mitsubishi jumps into the mini-SUV battle with the Outlander, which offers different styling but little else to separate it from the likes of the Subaru Forester or Honda CR-V.

Pros:
  • Roomy and comfortable ride, peppy around town, solid handling.
Cons:
  • Lacks punch for passing, distracting audio controls.

  • Love it! - 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander
    By -

    I own a 2003 XLS AWD. I have all the extras: leather, seat heaters, sun roof, Infinity stereo, auto dimming rear veiw mirror. I am getting 22 MPG which I think is pretty good for an SUV. The car has plenty of room for my active family, I have 2 dogs, a husband and a 3 year old. My husband is just over 6 feet tall and has plenty of head/leg room. Others have complained about the power, I am satisfied. I commmute 50 miles in and out of Washington DC and have no problems navigating the beltway. I have recieved many compliments.

  • Outlander is Out of this World!! - 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander

    I did my homework and researched all of the SUVs in this pricerange. CRV, Vue, Highlander, Tribute, and Escape. Not one of them could offer all of the extras for the same money that I got with my Outlander. I got leather, moon roof, everything for less money than a stripped down Escape or Highlander. The ride is incredible and very quiet. With the sport-tronic shift I can easily pass cars on the highway. The airconditioner is the best! This SUV has everything. I love it!!

    My wife and I were quite impressed with the styling/ design of this car (inside & out). The engine performs well on both city and highway driving and its got enough zip for merging/ passing. The ride is comfortable and the cabin is very quiet for such a small car. Having downsized from a 00 Mazda MPV (which we loved) I must say cargo space is more than adequate for our needs. My only comment about the stereo has to do w/ the faceplate. I wish it was more customized (with more options) for this car and it did not look so generic. Otherwise, so far so good.

    the outlander is outstanding. It handles like a car but feels and has the capacity of an suv. The ride is extremely quite and smooth. I picked this over the new honda element because of the ride. It has great styling and the price is right!

  • Do Not Overlook - 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander
    By -

    We needed to replace our 98 Pathfinder. My wife wont drive a wagon or mini van. So, the usual "cute ute" suspects were Rav4,CRV & Forester. Did not consider Outlander due to power issues. Tried to buy the Toyota, but couldnt get the right deal. On the way to a 2nd Toyota dealer, we decided to stop and check out the Mitsubishi. She loved the style, it drove great, and power, while more would be nice, isnt that bad. Bottom line is we got a lot more for our money with the Outlander. Do not overlook it in your search for the right "cute ute".

    I bought the outlander thinking I was going to buy another car later. Yea right, Im keeping this bad boy. I made some modifications but from 160 hp Im up to 190 hp. Im very happy. Also I put 18" chrome rims on it. And a cold air intake. Think about it. You can wonders with this vehicle. I love it.

    Nice vehicle, well built

  • I Love My Outlander! - 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander
    By -

    This is the best vehicle Ive ever owned. It rides as smooth as any luxury car, but is more fun to drive! It may not be as powerful as a sports car, but it has enough power to safely merge on any freeway. The interior is comfortable and beautiful. I hope to drive it for many years.

  • Fun To Drive - 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander

    Bought this car after trade in of Leased Galant. Price was right, had to wait to get the Pearl White with Sun &Sound Package but I am glad I got it. The only problem I have with the vehicle is that the steering wheel placement blocks top of speedometer, Sunroof did not open as wide as I expected, and power is lacking a little.
