2022 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport Review

For any adventure, you want to feel as comfortable as possible. That’s why the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport is full of soft-touch materials that cradle you through every mile. The available leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob are complemented by the 6-way adjustable driver seat that provides your ideal level of support.

Move over, Mother Nature; the perfect temperature is what the Outlander Sport is all about. The standard automatic climate control and available heated front seats will ensure you’re as warm or cool as you like.

There’s also plenty of room in this compact SUV. You can unwind in the following dimensions:

What about cargo space? Open the trunk to place your packages or bags in 21.7 cubic feet. If you need more room for your next road trip, simply lower the back seats to expand the cargo area to 49.5 cubic feet.

While you’re on the road, it helps to stay connected to your friends and family. Hook up your smartphone to your Outlander Sport with the available Apple CarPlay® or Android Auto™. This enables you to make phone calls, use navigation tools through voice control, and download your music library to the available 8-inch Smartphone-link Display Audio system.

You can enjoy all that connectivity with greater peace of mind, too. It’s all thanks to standard safety systems like:

The available Blind Spot Warning with Lane Change Assist will also have your back. It will look out for vehicles riding alongside you so you can change lanes with ease. It works with Rear Cross Traffic Alert, which will come in handy in a crowded parking lot. It will make sure the coast is clear before you back out of a tight parking space.

From the trails to the center of town, the Jeep Gladiator has your back. With the optional ParkView® Rear Back Up Camera display, you’ll have dynamic gridlines that guide you when backing up and an available 4X trailer hitch zoom that helps you get on the road sooner.

The Push Button Start system makes it a breeze to rev either the standard 148-horsepower, 2.0L MIVEC 4-cylinder engine or the available 168-horsepower, 2.4L MIVEC 4-cylinder engine.

The Outlander Sport comes standard with 2-wheel drive (2WD), while All-Wheel Control (AWC) is available if you regularly find your journey takes you onto slick streets.

What’s your pleasure when it comes to fuel efficiency? The base Outlander Sport boasts an EPA-estimated 24 city/30 highway MPG when equipped with 2WD and a similar EPA-estimated 23 city/29 highway MPG when equipped with AWC.

If you opt for the more powerful 2.4L engine available with the GT and GT Special Edition trims, you’ll still enjoy a respectable EPA-estimated 23 city/28 highway MPG.
