Used 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander for sale 

Mitsubishi is a car brand that reinvents new features every time it goes through an update. In the case of this 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander, you can find a whole lot of new features that come intelligently bundled in different trims. Mitsubishi offers 6 different trims and all load various features. The engine and transmission remain the same in 5 trims whereas the costliest trim in the line the GT 3.0 S AWC comes with a 3 L MIVEC V6 which is powerful yet efficient.

Which Trim you should Consider Buying?

There is no visible difference between any of the trims. However, you will get more fun to drive features upgraded with every trim. Surprisingly Mitsubishi has kept the engine power the same in all the 5 trims. There’s no difference in engine tuning in any of the 5 trims with the same engine. The GT 3.0 S AWC does get the best features and a bigger more efficient and reliable V6 engine developed by Mitsubishi. The Price difference between the top trim and the standard trim is considerably lesser than many rivals. It just costs 7 grand more to switch from the base to the top model. We believe the top trim the GT 3.0 S AWC as a worthy option to buy among all if you consider power and performance over money. The base variant is the most value for money decision to buy with features that are suitable and practical. It also packs the same engine technology, as space and seats in the interior do remain the same as its higher trim line.

In our opinion, the 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander could have been a better performer but it is not meant to impress with a 2.4 L displacement. It has a practical amount of power which goes with three transmission options. Cleverly Mitsubishi gets you an engine option with this car that generates better power figures and will impress your boss on the road. For regular use, you will not miss on power even with the standard engine unless you are racing with a V engine. The continued use of the same engine in the car makes it a boring affair to drive for one who already drove the older version.

However, the lack of a powerful engine in the standard version is just because of the reason that many crossover or light and compact SUVs like this have a similarly powered engine. One thing that surely needs attention is the humming of the engine when revved hard. The engine growls in a buzzing note which feels a lack of breathing inside the engine hood.

How well does it Accelerate?

Acceleration lacks agility and swiftness. You will surely go low on enthusiasm when you drive this car. The Inline 4 is an efficient motor but lags on servicing the push towards its wheels. On free-running highways, you might end getting angry by continuously pushing the pedals to gain some extra spin on the rear wheels which won’t come easily. There is no difference in acceleration figures in the new version and the older one.

The 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander 0-60 figures need an update but it will fall in the same place like its competitors only fractional misses might be noted.

How are the Ride and Handling?

Ride and Handling dynamics of the 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander will never make you complain. The driving ergonomics in this car are the best in class and need not need a second thought on that. The vehicle drives quite well on the road and has a great road hold even at high speeds. Body rolls do occur on sharp turns but is not that much which will affect its overall ride quality. You can run past city roads and tight traffic actively with this vehicle.

The turning radius of this SUV is more lika na Hatchback and makes crawling over tight spaces fun. Even on sudden braking and acceleration you won't get the jerk inside the cabin, the suspension setup does a great job here. But the Mitsubishi Outlander will give you jerks on rough lanes because of the light chassis and soft suspension assembled to its body.

How is the braking of the Mitsubishi Outlander ?

The braking performance of the Mitsubishi Outlander put it in a class of SUVs with the best braking performance. The brakes perform very energetically. At normal speeds the brakes hold the vehicle in position very quickly on pushing the brake pedals. Even at high speeds the vehicle brakes pro actively clutches the vehicle and brings the SUV to halt in a few seconds. There are brake assist systems in the vehicle that assist you while driving and make it a safer driving experience.

You can be confident with the braking of this vehicle although the ergonomics and engine of this isnt capable that much that it can cruise the vehicle suddenly to higher speeds. Hence you can be worry free with your careless wife driving any day
