Overview & Reviews

The 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander receives its first major update since a redesign three years ago. On the outside, the Outlander has more aggressive styling than its predecessor; changes include new front and rear fascias, hood, fenders and front mesh grille. Inside, there's a new LCD gauge display, real-time traffic for the navigation system and an available "Fuse" hands-free link system that offers audio streaming and voice commands for MP3 players and cell phones. Mechanical changes include a slight power bump for the V6 engine and an upgraded version of the all-wheel-drive system, which is offered only on the new top-of-the-line GT trim level.

• Agile handling, sporty styling, useful rear tailgate/liftgate design, top safety scores, wide range of features, lengthy warranty.

• A few low-grade plastics inside, kid-size third-row seat is flimsy and hard to fold.

  Toothless from How to Train Your Dragon - 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander
  By macpower - November 26 - 10:00 am

  Toothless because it feels a underpowered at first. Then you start to play with the paddle shifters and mold the performance to your liking. Now you have a really fun ride. Peak torque at 41-4200 rpm means you almost have a turbo-feel when you think the motors starting to bog down. My wife and I are 6 tall and the interior boasts a lot of legroom. The drivers side has a slight height adjustment too. I stuck an ipod in the cup holder and wanted a small slot so I could access the A/V rcas in the console. I thought there should be a small slot for the wires to hang through - and there was one - right where I wanted it! Thats the best part of this car. A lot of thought went into everything!

  My First Mitsubishi is a great vehicle! - 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander
  By gmo - September 17 - 3:13 am

  My switch from a full size Ford pickup to a suv came when I needed a newer vehicle to drive in heavy Nashville traffic. The 2010 Outlander has been great so far with better than expected gas mileage and comfort. I researched the SUV line heavily between a Subaru Forrester,Toyota Rav 4, and the Outlander. I am 6ft. 3 and the Outlander by far is the most comfortable. I would recommend to anyone.

  Love! - 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander
  By Emma - December 19 - 7:23 am

  I absolutely love this vehicle. The technical features are outrageous. It handles more like a car, not an SUV. Have driven on snow and ice and feel very confident in this vehicle. Very roomy in the back with the back seats folded. Love the look, especially from the front. Wouldnt trade it for anything. By-the-way, this vehicle tells you if you need to switch from 2 wheel drive to 4 wheel drive when it senses a wheel spin or slip, how COOL is that?

  Much better than Ford Edge - 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander
  By James - June 20 - 10:00 am

  This is my 1st brand new SUV and I am very impressed by how it drives. Not to mention the unbeatable standard "BUMPER TO BUMPER" warranty not just the transmission like all of the American SUVs.

  Driving a Road Less Traveled... - 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander
  By Bennett - October 19 - 5:50 pm

  Bought AWD Outlander GT at Chicagoland dealership (live in MI... vehicle STILL very difficult to find here in upper-level trims)... at first underwhelmed by Rally Red color- first choice was Quartz Brown with lighter interior- but Im coming around to appreciate this classic "mid-life-crisis" colored vehicle. Looks fantastic in overcast skies: for some reason brings out its subtleties and various hues. Mileage is WAY better than expected(about 2500 miles on it already). My commute is long- 95 miles each way- across varieties of roads, including city stop-and-go, 2-lane highways(55mph) and freeways (70mph). Averaging on trip computer mpg 27-29!!! Also love its gadgetry, tailgate/storage.

  Fantastic CUV - 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander
  By cme4brain - September 22 - 6:18 am

  I owned a 2008 Outlander and bought the 2010. This is the best combination of style, performance, interior comfort, and reliability for the money. You will not be disappointed. Even with a distant dealer, I bought the car as it is so reliable- this is my 6th Mitsubishi. The rear back up camera, the integrated Audio and NAV systems are excellent, as are the modifiable computer controls. My next SUV/CUV will be a Mitsu as I am so pleased with this model. I drive 32,000 miles per year so I spend lots of time sitting in this car, very comfortable.

  First SUV - 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander
  By desarge - April 11 - 8:10 pm

  During the recent winter storms in DC the SUV rode so smoothly over the snow and ice, it was refreshing to watch everyone else get stuck while we drove around freely. The back seat has plenty of space for passengers, since my son is driving it with my wife, I spend plenty of time in the back seat. Cargo space is actually bigger then the space we had in our minivan; that was unexpected. Gas mileage is wonderful for a car this size.

  2010 Outlander GT - 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander
  By gabesta - January 31 - 11:50 pm

  Ive only had my Outlander for 10 days, but so far it is the best vehicle Ive owned. I love the styling, both inside and out. I would not recommend this vehicle for anyone who plans on utilizing the 3rd row seat regularly, as it is quite small. However, with that stowed, and the 2nd row moved back, there is adequate room for 5 adults (even if they are on the tall side). The V6 is peppy, and the S-AWC handles aggressive cornering well. True 4wd would be nice on the GT (to save on fuel), but overall economy is still relatively good. I love the FAST key system, as well as the ease of use with the NAV package. Overall, it is an awesome vehicle.

  Wonderful SUV - 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander
  By mastersarge - December 22 - 10:13 am

  The Outlander was purchased just before the great snow storm of 2010 in DC: Could not be timed any better. The Outlander rode on ice and snow as though the roads were clear and free. Handling is as good as you expect from a SUV. The sound system is wonderful and the finish is perfect. All the controls are easily accessible and conveniently located. The only item we wish we had: a compass. great feature: how many miles left on a tank of gas.
