5 reasons to buy the 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander

1. So much space

When your busy schedule includes family errands and work obligations, an SUV that can adapt to each task is exactly what's called for. The 2022 Outlander steps up with a sizeable interior that can accommodate extra kids, bigger boxes, and everything in between. When the school run suddenly includes their BFFs, the Outlander has a handy third row of seating, pushing capacity to seven. If you've agreed to help out at a community program, flipping the back rows down will give you 79.7 cu-ft of space for craft supplies, catering, or gardening equipment.

2. Well-equipped from the get-go

Available in five trim levels for the 2022 model year, the generous roster of standard equipment on the Outlander ES base trim immediately catches the eye. Passenger-pleasing features like Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto integration connect your smartphone apps to Outlander's eight-inch touchscreen. Bluetooth® hands-free calling allows you to stay in touch on the move, while remote keyless entry is a blessing on those busy mornings when your hands are full.

3. Bold exterior design

Fully redesigned for the 2022 model year, the Mitsubishi Outlander has plenty to shout about. Expect stares in the parking lot and questions at the water cooler because this compact SUV is bigger and bolder than ever before. The high-set front fascia features large headlights and sleek LED daytime running lights, both surrounded by a dazzling chrome bezel. Chiseled side panels and an extended rear with a broad-visibility window complete the transformation.

4. Power to suit your style

While there's just one engine option for the 2022 Outlander, you can still personalize the performance to suit your driving style. The 181-hp, 2.5L four-cylinder engine delivers power via a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT). Front-wheel drive is the standard and that's more than enough for regular roads and typical seasonal conditions. If you enjoy driving on forest trails or regularly face inclement weather, however, hold out for an all-wheel drive model–it's an available option on all trims and standard on the 2022 SEL Launch Edition.

5. Lots of driver assistance

With plenty of driver assistance features onboard, the 2022 Outlander sets you up nicely for added awareness whatever the environment. Feel confident parking in any space, thanks to the additional perspective of the standard rearview camera. Upgrade to the SE trim and above for a 360-degree birds-eye view camera system. Downtown shopping centers and airport collection areas are hectic places, with people on foot and multiple transport options for collection and setting down; the Outlander's pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, and rear cross-traffic alert add a layer of awareness that complements and enhances your own.
