The Mitsubishi Outlander is part of the very popular compact SUV segment. Introduced in 2003, the Outlander has a very nice silhouette and is offered with a nice choice of engines. Depending on your tastes, you can opt for a more fuel-efficient engine like the 168 horsepower 2.4-litre four-cylinder engine linked to a CVT transmission.
