This machine promises to be the hottest launch of the year, with a cost-benefit ratio that will make competitors like the Corolla Cross tremble. Would you like to know more about this big car?
Mitsubishi's new medium SUV is coming with everything, maintaining the tradition of being one of the most beloved models by Brazilians since the beginning of the 2000s. The Outlander has always been synonymous with reliability and technology, and now, with this new generation, it is more modern and sophisticated than ever. It is the result of the merger between the Renault-Nissan group and Mitsubishi, and shares the same platform as the new Nissan X-Trail.
Mitsubishi Outlander engine and performance
Mitsubishi offers two engine options for the new Outlander. The access configuration comes with a 2.5 4-cylinder gasoline engine, generating 184 horsepower and 24,9 kgfm of torque, with a CVT automatic transmission that simulates up to seven gears. But the real star is the plug-in hybrid version, which is the one arriving in Brazil.

It combines a 2.4 horsepower 131 gasoline engine with two electric motors – a 115 horsepower front and a 136 horsepower rear – totaling 251 horsepower and an impressive 46 kgfm of torque. With this hybrid engine, the new Outlander is extremely efficient, being able to travel up to 60 km in 100% electric mode and averaging 16 km/l in a mixed cycle.
Design and dimensions
The look of the new Mitsubishi Outlander is jaw-dropping. Even though it remains 4,69 meters long, it has gained in other dimensions: it has a wheelbase of 2,70 meters, a width of 2,86 meters and a height of 1,75 meters. Weighing 1.565 kg, it has a spacious 620-liter trunk with the seats folded down.
The exterior design features chrome at the front, a bumper with a gray appliqué and an adaptable full LED optical set. On the sides, the SUV comes with a floating aluminum roof rack and wheels that can reach 20 inches, in addition to a two-tone paint job. At the rear, the look is completed with a spoiler, gray appliqué on the bumper and LED taillights.
Interior and Technology
Inside, the new Mitsubishi Outlander impresses with its high-quality finish. The interior space is comfortable, accommodating five adults and two children in the third row of seats. And it's packed with technology: front seats with electrical adjustments, heating and memory for the driver, in-person key, Bose premium sound system, electronic parking brake, Auto Hold, start-stop, driving mode selector on the console, induction cell phone charging, dual-zone digital climate control, panoramic sunroof, trunk with electric opening and closing with motion sensor, 10,2-inch multifunctional digital panel and much more. The multimedia center is also a show in itself, with a 10-inch screen, 360º cameras, integrated GPS and connectivity for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Security
When it comes to safety, the new Outlander puts on a show. All versions come with traction and stability controls, disc brakes with ABS four-wheel drive, dynamic chassis control, six airbags, collision warning with active braking, blind spot warning, animal, pedestrian and cyclist detection, rear cross traffic alert with braking for maneuvers, automatic high beam switching, traffic warning lane change, license plate reader and adaptive cruise control with stop and go function. It is as complete as the top SUVs in the segment.
The new Mitsubishi Outlander promises to be the leader among medium SUVs in Brazil. With an incredible design, cutting-edge technology, efficient engines and a competitive price that should vary between R$200 and R$330, it is enough to displace models such as the Corolla Cross, Jeep Compass and other competitors. Mitsubishi, which is already a traditional brand here, has everything it needs to win over even more fans with this new generation of Outlander. So, what do you think of this machine?
