The Mitsubishi Outlander is the perfect crossover for the modern city dweller. It is one of the few jeeps that simultaneously combine high maneuverability, safety and at the same time cross-country ability. For the first time this car was born exactly 10 years ago (in 2003) and since then it has been in stable demand in the world market. Serial production of Mitsubishi Outlander crossovers ceased in 2006, after which it was replaced by the second generation of cars. Nevertheless, in the secondary market, its popularity has not diminished in any way. But what is special about the first generation of Mitsubishi Outlander SUVs? Feedback from car owners will help us sort out this issue.
Appearance
By the way, "Outlander" in translation from English stands for "stranger". But looking at the photo, you can hardly call Mitsubishi a stranger. This is a modest city car, a small predatory animal with a solid design. The appearance of the first generation is quite original for the Mitsubishi Outlander crossover. Reviewdrivers especially notes the radiator grill, which is visually divided into two parts. Between them flaunts a powerful chrome emblem of the company. Embossed and swift hood successfully emphasizes the style of the SUV. Also among the features worth noting are the rails, made in a tubular form. Not a single modern SUV has such details, but the Mitsubishi Outlander does. The Japanese also successfully came out with the combined headlights of the main light. The bumper is purely off-road - high, massive, without any elements of luxury. This is perhaps the only Japanese-made crossover that has such a high cross-country ability. As test drives show, the Mitsubishi Outlander calmly overcomes all those places that are subject only to all-wheel drive SUVs. And what is under the hood of the car?
Mitsubishi Outlander: technical specifications review
Under the hood of the crossover there is a powerful two-liter gasoline engine with 136 "horses". But that's not all. This unit is only the base for the Mitsubishi Outlander. The owner's review especially notes the "top-end" 2.4-liter engine with a capacity of 160 horsepower. Such an engine is capable of accelerating an SUV to a maximum of 190 kilometers per hour. That's where the real power is! The car is equipped with "mechanics" and "automatic". As for fuel consumption, in urban conditions, the Mitsubishi Outlander consumes about 13.8 liters of gasoline (almost like the Russian UAZ Hunter on the highway). Outside the city, this figure is 8 liters.
How much does a Mitsubishi Outlander (2013) cost?
The price of a first-generation SUV as of 2013 ranges from 430 to 560 thousand rubles. The representative of the new third generation of Mitsubishi Outlander crossovers costs from 970 thousand rubles in the base and up to 1 million 420 thousand in the top configuration.
As you can see, both the technical characteristics of the car and the reviews are very impressive. "Mitsubishi Outlander" has always been and will be on top, regardless of generation and configuration.
