Overview & Reviews

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.

• Roomy and comfortable ride, peppy around town, solid handling.

• Lacks punch for passing, distracting audio controls.

  Good Performance with Premium Fuel - 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander
  By OutLanderer - April 10 - 2:00 am

  One thing I discovered in last few months is, substantial improvement in acceleration with Uleaded Plus or premium fuel(even better). I never used to believe in it. But the difference is day and night. The added bonus is 1 more extra mile gallon (compensates for extra money spent).

  My New Outlander - 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander
  By Linus - March 20 - 2:00 am

  I would have given this car a perfect "10" but for two things: 1. I wish it came in a V6 option. 2. I wish it had XM satellite radio as an option. Otherwise, this car is perfect in every way (OK, maybe Im exaggerating, but I really love this car).

  Great Vehicle for the Money - 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander
  By crd - March 16 - 5:20 am

  The Mitsubishi Outlander is everything that I was looking for. It is roomy, comfortable, quick and responsive, high off the ground, and it has a very thoughtful interior design. Its gas mileage is a little higher than I expected, about 25 mpg on the highway.

  number one out of my last five cars - 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander
  By blutenchi - March 10 - 10:00 am

  I purcahased my Outlander in January of 2003, and I love it. Its my fifth vehicle and my favorite. Compared to its competitors it lacks a little in performance power, but its handling is great and it is one of the most distinctive vehicles out. Since it is still a fairly new vehicle on the market many people dont know what it is but always comment on its style and features.

  Outlander outdoes itself - 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander
  By Congaman - February 6 - 2:00 am

  I went in to buy a Montero Sport, and walked out with the Outlander. It rides like a car, and has plenty of room for my stuff. And my kid’s stuff, Hula dancing, boogie boarding etc. I realized I could do most of the same driving in the Outlander than in the Montero for less money and better fuel efficiency.

  Outlander - Great Ride/Drive - 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander
  By bigdaddyhow - January 7 - 2:00 am

  This is a very driver friendly vehicle, especially in the city. Quick acceleration 0-30, but 4 cyl not ideal for two lane passing. One of the better body styles out there in its class. About 25-26 MPG highway which is pretty good considering.

  Disappointed - 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander
  By john - December 7 - 11:20 am

  I bought this vehicle brand new thinking I was getting a good deal since it was the last 03 in town. Well lets see, the catalytic converter has been replaced, as well as they entire air conditioning system-which you can only buy the parts from the dealership. Also the cv-joints have been replaced and I only get 16mpg- combined city and highway. You would think it had 100k plus miles, but I just traded it in with 67k. There was no power, touchy transmission, a super disappointment to drive. I also felt every bump in the road and it was so uncomfortable. Also my partner was 64" and his knees hit the dashboard and he could hardly drive it. It was cramped and a huge disappointment.

  XLS AWD with leather package - 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander
  By ikay - September 30 - 2:00 am

  I got it and I love it. The engine has not been a problem. 140hp is enough for most people. Someone likes to compare with 200-hp+ SUV. We never get to use the full power anyway or you get busted. However, when speeding up, the engine is kind of loud as other mitsubishi. It did not bother me. The sportronic is very nice and it actually works well. It has a very good driving position in the car. you dont slide so much even with leather when turning (the bucket seat is doing some work). Overall, it is good and worth the $$. Comparing with CR-V, just less space with cooler look. Your call.

  Great deal for its cost!!! - 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander
  By jnpchad - September 25 - 2:00 am

  Ive had the car for a short time but it is truly fun to drive. Its a smooth ride and very comfortable to sit in and drive. For the cost of this car you really get more than what you pay for. Prior to this car I had a Ford Expedition which I LOVED....I am just as happy with this car with the exception of the 4 cyl. engine...I am use to a V8 so this is quite a difference. But overall, I am very happy about the quality and comfort of this vehicle for its cost.

  Fantastic, XTERRA ++++! - 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander
  By javagirl1 - July 2 - 2:00 am

  very similar to Nissans XTERRA only with additional features and better gas milage. Only drawback is it is a bit less stable due to narrower roadbase footprint. Had EXTERRA, like this much more for a comparable price. Bettrta than Honda CRV too! 4cyl is amazing...skeptic till I test drove it.
