2003 Mitsubishi Outlander Overview

Introduction

The 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander is an all-new sport-utility similar in size and character to the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4.And it measures up well against those two.Built on a car platform, it's smooth and quiet, and feels rock steady at highway speeds.It has four doors and a roomy cargo area, and loading stuff in back is easy.

Like other small crossover sport-utilities, the Mitsubishi Outlander offers elevated seating for better visibility.But it is neither tall nor tippy.Its compact size helps it negotiate the often-hostile asphalt jungle.All-wheel drive is an option when the pavement disappears beneath snow and ice or dissolves into a dusty, rocky trail.

Taut and toned, the Mitsubishi styling is bolder, more aggressive than the Honda, Toyota, or Subaru.The Mitsubishi Outlander is a good alternative to those vehicles and is priced aggressively against them.The Outlander ranges from a suggested base price of $17,997 to a fully loaded suggested price of $23,390.Read full review
