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 amToothless 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!

A/C issue not even 24 hours of ownership - 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander
By 4DogsCon - October 23 - 2:46 pmI have had this vehicle for less than 24 hours and already in for service. First time Mit. owner and maybe the LAST. Never had this problem with others-- then given loaner and told "make sure you put the same amount of gas in it." You kidding me? I have to check in my brand new SUV for 3-5 days for service and you have the nerve. Unbelievable. So far first impression is not too good. Other than that I thought the value was good although I hope this isnt the type of value yet to come.

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

Not driven a lot yet , But enjoying it! - 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander
By 1stXmitsuowner - May 21 - 8:03 pmNice sporty ride, tight handling and good MPG so far! Sharp looking and peppy for a 4 cyl. Wish I upgraded to moon roof and R/F sound system. But sound not bad! Bought because of value and warranty. Looked at Kia, Mazda and Ford prior to buying the Outlander!

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

My First Mitsubishi - 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander
By arelle20 - October 24 - 5:36 amSo far, I am pleased with the handling of my 2010 Outlander. The 3.0V6 is nicely responsive on both city streets, as well as on the highway. Fuel economy is not as indicated on the brochure but that may be the result of my somewhat aggressive driving. With the 230HP powertrain, its so easy to enjoy the thrill of experiencing "G-force acceleration" without breaking any laws. We havent had much snow in our area, so cant say much about the 4WD except that I can hardly wait to put it through its paces.

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