Mitsubishi Autlender 2022 review

Standard features on the entry-level ES include a 9.0-inch multimedia display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Bluetooth connectivity, sat-nav (GPS navigation system), front-row dual-zone climate control (even better than just air conditioning). , front and rear parking sensors, adaptive cruise control, reversing camera, electric parking brake, push button start, cup holders in all rows, trip computer, lane keeping assistant and LED headlights and running lights.

Next comes the LS and that's when things get really good. The LS adds privacy glass, automatic headlights with automatic high beams, leather steering wheel, proximity key (smart key for keyless entry with automatic door lock), silver roof rails, wireless phone charger and rain sensors.

Aspire adds 20-inch alloy wheels, heated front seats, micro-suede/synthetic leather seat trim, 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, 360-degree monitor, power driver's seat, power liftgate and head-up display.

Exceed adds leather seats, three-zone climate control, a panoramic sunroof, power front driver and passenger seats, rear window sunshades, and a Bose audio system.

The Exceed Tourer is the largest model in the lineup, but all it offers over the others is a two-tone exterior color, two-tone leather interior and front seat massage.

ES and LS come with a full size spare tire, while higher versions come with a spare tire to save space.

There's not much missing here in terms of standard features other than a rear-seat entertainment system, a heated steering wheel, or park assist (automatic parking).

If you're wondering if the Outlander has a differential lock, the answer is no - more serious SUVs like the Pajero are equipped with a differential lock.

Awnings are included in the catalog of original Mitsubishi parts for Outlander, but there are also those that are suitable for any SUV.

There is currently no sports version of the Outlander.
