mitsubishi outlander review 2023

The 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander is a decent contender in the crowded compact SUV segment, offering a hybrid option that many buyers will appreciate. It boasts a 2.4L 4-cylinder engine paired with an electric motor in the PHEV model, delivering a combined 185 kW and an electric-only range of about 55 km. Inside, it’s surprisingly roomy with a seven-seat layout, though the interior quality feels a bit like it’s stuck in the last decade.

Fuel economy is respectable, especially in the PHEV, which can save you some dosh at the bowser. Pricing starts around $45,000 AUD new, with used models often found between $30,000 and $40,000 AUD. Common gripes include a noisy CVT transmission and somewhat uninspiring driving dynamics.
