This Year's Model Updates:

For 2006, the Mitsubishi Endeavor gets revised front and rear styling and some interior trim revisions. The XLS trim level has been dropped, while the Limited's leather seating and heated seats are now optional instead of standard. On the positive side, antilock brakes are now standard on all Endeavors and 2WD versions receive standard traction control.

Pros:
  • Rides and handles like a car, roomy seating front and rear, torquey V6 power plant, solid build quality, good crash test scores.
Cons:
  • No third-row seat or side curtain airbags available, less cargo capacity than peers, mediocre interior materials.

    This is my first SUV, and so far, I am very happy with it. The ride is ultra smooth, it handles well in snow (Im in Denver), and has a "sleek" look to it. Also, the gas mileage is decent as Im averaging 19/24 mpg. The only thing I wish was different was it had somewhat more horsepower (it has 225), as its acceleration is somewhat slow. Then again, with high gas prices, I would rather opt for the better gas mileage. All in all, the Endeavor is a solid buy.

  • Great SUV, Slaughters Toyota - 2006 Mitsubishi Endeavor

    The car has performed flawlessly since the get go and everyone I talk to says itll go 200K easy. Those only problem I here of is a clogged A/C drain that backs up into the cab and its a $1,200 fix. A simple coat hanger or air gun up into the drain would do the trick people. Easiest car to maintain and cheap to fix.

  • After 3 years, still love it! - 2006 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    This vehicle is Mitsubishis best kept secret. It handles with ease in all types of weather & road conditions. We are quite comfortable traveling long distances, no back aches... no more leg pains! We are tall people and having the leg & head room plus comfy seating is simply awesome! I get exceptional gas mileage in town, averaging 19-24 and on the highway our best was 29 mpg! Cant beat that for this sized vehicle. The engine runs smooth, automatic shifts easily and steps right into passing gear when you need it!

  • Great Ride and Handling for an SUV - 2006 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    I love the way it handles on curving roads. It is a very soft ride, but no swaying. It handles great and has tons of room for my wifes antique shopping. The transmission is great, being able to shift yourself is nice, especially when going down mountain roads you can put it in 2nd gear and not ride the brake. It does not have a top heavy feel. Overall Mitsubishi did it right.

    My 2006 Mitsubishi Endeavor is better than I had expected. It has excellent handiling and a nice ride. It did well in heavy snow, however the all season Bridgestone tires are not agreesive enough for heavy snow conditions. It provides an all around great driving experience!

  • "Rishi" - 2006 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    I really shopped for a new SUV; it was down to a Honda, Jeep and the Mitsubishi Endeavor. I selected the Endeavor for its power, styling and "feel". It is a very fun SUV to drive compared to the other canidates. I am very satisfied with the Endeanvor, however it requires high preformance gas which I did not know until after reading the owners manual. I use my Endeavor as a real estate broker and my clients all seem to enjoy riding in it. I think the quality of the sound system needs to be upgraded and some of the electronics seem to be style dated. The exterior styling is "hot," the exceleration is excellent and the ride is very good.

  • Love, love, LOVE IT!! - 2006 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    I owned a Land Rover previous to this, and had to call AMA about 7 times in the winter and it had problems every 2 to 3 weeks. I needed a more reliable vehicle, and was ecstatic when I found a 3 year lease return 2006 Endeavor (so, only 1 previous owner!). Ive had it for almost a year and it drives incredibly, and Ive had NO problems with it so far. Everything works perfect, plus it is a beautiful, spacious, comfy ride. I couldnt be more thrilled with this vehicle! Even if something did go wrong, Im still covered under the 100,000 km warranty. No worries!

    My Endeavor handles great and its ride is very comfortable. I love the audio system with the volume adjusters on the back of the steering wheel. Seats fold up very easily, with one hand. It has an excellent ride and is lots of fun to drive.

  • Love this SUV! - 2006 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    My wife and I purchased this SUV several weeks ago. So far we really love it. Its quiet, fast, handles like a luxury car (thats a good thing), and has a great transmission. The sound system is very good and I love the display in the dash. I cant believe Mitsubishi is not selling these things as fast as they can build them. The dealership was willing to give us 1% over invoice and 0" APR on the loan. Its incredible that such a great vehicle is discounted so much. My wife and I laughed all the way home. And we love that warranty! Plus it got a great rating in Consumer Reports. Thats always a MUST!!

  • Terrible Idea - 2006 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    By -

    Ive owned my Mitsubishi Endeavor for approximately five months now. It requires premium gas which I am not happy about and wasnt informed of when I purchased the vehicle. Already my air conditioner drain has clogged, flooded the front passenger floorboard, and because of a design flaw, the whole motor has to be taken out to get to the air conditioner. The dealership and the corporate office told me this is not covered under warranty. It is going to cost approximately $1,000 to correct a "design" flaw. Also, the paint is terrible and I have chips from touchless carwashes. I absolutely hate this vehicle. I wish I would have purchased an American made vehicle. Mitsubishi is not a customer oriented company!
