THE MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER- OUTSTANDING STUFF

THE MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER- OUTSTANDING STUFF







The Mitsubishi Outlander is a good-looking, fun-driving, flexible-seating, sports utility vehicle. The Outlander was introduced in the Japanese markets by The Mitsubishi in 2001 by the name AIRTRECK. In the U.S.A. it was introduced by the name The OUTLANDER in 2003.

DESIGN

































The Mitsubishi Outlander is Manufactured in the G.S. platform of LANCER EVOLUTION. Its brakes, suspension and aluminium roof (for a low centre of gravity) are all borrowed from the same. Compared to the other soft roaders in India, Outlander has more S.U.V look. 215 mm ground clearance and 215-70 R 16 tyres prove this. The interior of Outlander is black and the seats are very comfortable. The paddle shift gears are as large as those of conventional sports cars. The dials and controls are majestic. Seats split, tumble, slide, recline and hide themselves away in optimum fashion at the touch of a button. The cargo space is enormous and easy to load via a split tailgate. And there are some truly inspired touches like a controlled-temperature glove box, solar-trapping glass and an odor-eating roof! Of course there's also air conditioning, electric door mirrors and windows, cruise control, Bluetooth hands-free, 30-gigabyte hard drive satellite navigation and a 650w, 9-speaker, immerse-yourself-in-sound audio system.

DRIVING

















The outlander doesn’t disappoint those who expect thrill of driving and control. The 2.4L 4 cylinder petrol engine will give 167BHP and 226nm torque. Only automatic transmission fac ility is available in the Outlander. It has chassis designed for sporty handling. It takes just 11.45s to reach a speed of 100km. The triptronic mode makes driving funnier. Steering is comfortable.
