Took me a while to understand Scotty. While other UA-camrs speak to car enthusiasts or about exotic cars, he speaks to the average person who uses a car as a transportation method, which is 90% of people, and that’s why he’s good.
imagine if Mitsubishi made a hybrid if they can do 40 miles a gallon with a regular gas engine the hybrid would be insane for gas milage it may be something crazy like 60 or 70 as a hybrid🤣
@@nikhil4utube Might be MPG vs MPGe so normal gas & diesel vehicles are rated as mile per gallon. Where as electric vehicles, CNG or propane & some Plug in hybrids are rated as miles per gallon of gasoline-equivalent. In theory the EPA uses the amount of electric energy that's equal to the energy in one gallon of gasoline.
I bought one from the dealer brand new back in 2014 when I didn't know any better. But my wife liked it so much, she ended up driving it to and from her workplace. By the time she accumulated 90,000 miles on it, she gave it back to me, and I kept driving it up to 145,000 miles until I traded it for a new vehicle. There was nothing wrong with it. I could have kept accumulating miles on it because all the maintenance was done at the dealer. I am treating the new vehicle the same way. I follow the required maintenance schedule from the dealer, and keep all the documents in a file.
Only Scotty can release a video called "What the Hell is This" with no other explanation or even punctuation and get almost quarter of a million views in less than a week. People just know it's good. Speaks to his honesty and breadth of knowledge. What a legend!
I have a '23 Outlander SE and I absolutely love it! I took it on a roadtrip from the midwest to california and that ride was so enjoyable with there lane assist "MyPilot". The camera in the windshield can spot the Speed Limit and asks for you to adjust and you just gotta push a button and it does it for you. 14 gallon tank, with gas prices $3 for 87 oct where I live, a little over $40 and I get almost 500 miles a fill up. I get complimented from time to time, mainly "I didn't know Mitsubishi made cars that nice" Lol.
Their parent company, Nissan who bought Mitsubishi Motors a few years ago is determined to nerf them so the Nissan product lineup looks better by comparison
I have a 2018 Outlander Sport SE It’s 6 yrs old and has not had one problem Not even a light bulb Regular maintenance and I change CVT fluid every 30 K ( about 4 quarts ) drain and fill Also the CVT inline paper filter located under the battery tray every 60 K For someone who wants a good solid vehicle for a good price Mitsubishi is the way to go
I have a 2022 Outlander SE and I absolutely love it! The gas mileage is great, there’s enough room for my family, and it’s very comfortable to drive. Ever since my back surgery, it’s been hard to drive for long distances. This SUV definitely took care of that issue!
I have a 2009 now has 70K bought it new and I love it is my everyday car I don’t travel to far at all that’s why is low in mileage, batteries,shocks,wheel sensors,regular maintenance and tires in 13 years, only 1 issue the was a rusted sensor but again I love it it will stay with me forever and I must say I do have a weekend vehicle as well!!
@@amitchell4206 I have a 2017Mitsu outlander 55000 miles. No issues to date. Love it. Brakes lasted way longer than my last car. Heated seats are my fav feature.
My wife drives a 2022 outlander SEL AWD. We paid sticker prices. HWY MPG is around 36 A lot of bang for your buck. My only complaint is the engine power. But for her it is fine. She has no complaints. The 20 inch wheels give it a tight ride but you can feel the bumps through the cabin. App doesn’t work great. Being made in Japan and the 100k warranty we decided to buy it. I’m a Lexus. Toyota. Mazda guy. But she likes it and it was a fair deal. Hopefully it last 🤞
At what speed can you get 36 mpg? Interstate for us and we’re lucky to get 30mpg. We are not heavy on the accelerator and avg about 24.5 overall. Disappointing but we still love it. Getting our new hood next week and praying the paint matches.
@@insidedadshead9691 my wife has about a 40 minute round trip to work. Basically all highway miles. Speed limit is 55 so she probably drives between 55/60. We just got back from a seven hr round trip and I drove and got 32 mpg averaging 70 mph. Remember if you sit in drive throughs… warm your car up… etc. that will kill your mpg average.
Our 22 Outlander has 17K miles on it and still runs like brand new. This is what’s good about Japanese cars they invested all their time in making the best automobile engines to compete with high end vehicles
Watching this in my 2021 Mirage. Today's Mitsubishi is what all other car companies should be. No subscription heated seats or remote start, no turbo, no crazy tech to break and cost thousands.
I used to own a 2008 lancer for 9 years. The only problem I ever had with it was an exhaust leak and a dead battery after the first 7 years. Great car, and I used to drive it hard too
@@applepoop10 when I got it, it was late 2007 and the new EVO didn’t exist yet plus it would be way more expensive. And it was a strange situation. I saw one, fell in love with the design and my car that I had literally dies that very day so I needed a car asap.
My first car as a teenager was a 2005 Mitsubishi gallant,my second car a 2016 Mitsubishi lancer which I still own and use without any issue and I just bought a 2023 Mitsubishi outlander it’s the best car right now no debate. Lots of people sleep on this brand. I have driven various brands but none come near Mitsubishi. The new Mitsubishi outlander drives like a dream. It’s a beautiful work of art
@@lanceryderwilson8618 i had 3 and they lasted forever. Never any issues. Just oil change and one had a bearing which after 9 years was still covered by warranty. In the rest of the world including Japan mitsus are some of the best most reliable cars
I never really liked SUVs but was surprised as hell after driving this on vacation. It’s not obnoxiously big or hard to maneuver, was great on gas, and was fun to drive. I also liked that the model I drove didn’t use an electronic shifter or electronic e-brake. Used ones are actually pretty cheap, too. Hard to believe it doesn’t get more love, honestly.
Big kudos to Mitsubishi for putting a standard flat 4 engine in this vehicle. Simple to work on and reliable, no fancy gimmicks. Other manufacturers put turbos on small displacement engines which in the long run could diminish it, especially 3-cylinder engines with turbos. Mitsu just has to market themselves a lot better and come out with more solid vehicles.
All the older outlanders had the bulletproof Mitsu developed 2.4 petrol engines (in my country anyway). Not fast or particularly efficient. But they could take serious abuse.
I drive for a living in houston Texas so I see alot of different cars on highway every day and I've always wondered why Mitsubishi and Mazda are the least popular of the Japanese brands. It's very rare I ever see a Mitsubishi these days . When I was a kid the lancers and eclipse were everywhere
I could say with total confidence that mitsubishi is the most underrated car out there. Mazdas are gaining clients over Toyota and Honda but Mitsubishis aren't 🤷
It’s lack of dealership support. Houston has several Mitsubishi dealers but they are mainly always the most backwards. High pressure, second chance financing, 25 chain smoking, fast talking ex-cons all looking for a commission. Their lots maybe have a dozen Mitsubishi’s and 300 preowned vehicles. Until Mitsubishi cracks down on dealer network, a lot of people won’t go to them. No matter how much of a value they are.
@Harold Beauchamp 100% agree. It's not that Mitsu made bad cars, they just made bad business decisions. I remember in the 90s and early 2000s when Mitsu was going toe to toe with the big Japanese MFGs in the NA market. What's weird though is their overseas presence is huge. For example in Australia, Honda is pulling out and Mitsu is 2nd only to Toyota. Perception is reality it seems.
We are in the market for a car and I completed forgot about Mitsubishi. I was given this as a rental. I'm 6-2 and was comfortable behind the wheel. My wife had to make a 7 hour trip with it. Initially, she thought it was too big. But now she wants one. She said she felt very safe driving it. She has also watched many reviews and priced one. We are looking at 40k or less with many options. And the warranty is 10 years, WOW.
@KoDeMondo Yes , bought one, fully loaded. My only complaint is the engine. It really lacks power when you need it. I have to account for this when making a left turn. She is perfectly fine with the lack of power.
I bought the 2023 Outlander SE. Haven't had a single problem with it. I bought it in the Dark Blue color. Looks black at night, but when the sun's on it or the sun comes up, you can see that it's blue. I've gotten Lots of compliments from people and those who ride in the 2nd row always have a smile on their face. "This is a Nice Car!" Nice sound system too. Thanks Scotty. 🙂
I have one of these and it’s hands down the best bang for the buck and the warranty is great . I’ve owned it for a little over a year and I’ve had no issues
I have a 2005 Mitsubishi and it is still going. My 2012 Prius V needs is Hydraulic Brake Booter replaced for $5000. It was recalled but Toyota will not honor the recall. The dealer is the only one that fix it. So it is sitting in the garage for 8 months and now the battery died.
I’m glad to see Mitsubishi is making a come back. A couple years ago I saw very few Mitsubishi’s on the road by me. Now a see a few of these a day. I might switch over from VW who’ve jacked the prices up on all their cars.
Haven’t looked at Mitsubishi in a long time, your review is interesting, gonna have to go by and check one out. By the way, with all the fancy computer stuff and screens they are putting on the new cars, don’t you think a really nice touch would be a on board diagnostic read out on that fancy screen. You could check out your engine and transmission and all those sensors with a touch of a button.
@@mcc7762 yeah, unfortunately; you are absolutely right, about THAT; on the other hand; if enough customers "asked for it"... ¿Do you remember that OLD saying= "The customer is always right"? (I wonder what ever happened to THAT attitude?)
I have a 2018 Outlander Sport Here is a list of everything that has gone wrong in 4 1/2 years of ownership. Ready here it is …………….. Nothing Nada Not even a lite bulb It’s rated for 23 city and 28 highway I get 28 city and between 32-35 on the highway Everybody knocks Mitsubishi except the people that actually own it.
@@anguslean4058 you are right they are very reliable, i recently sold my 2008 outlander for my cousin with 120k miles no problems at all,,6 years of driving..all kind of weather
Nah, there's no continue income streams from their customers. An actual OBDII on board diagnostic readout would also bring the Karens out the dealerships complaining if their fuel trim readings are off my .0001% to the service shops.
I've owned 2 Mitsubishi Lancer (2009 and 2015) Those things were built like tanks... very sturdy, good looking enough, fun to drive. Both were front wheel drive.
I saw this exact car in February this year at a Mitsubishi dealer in Sapporo. This car really left a good impression and got me interested in the Mitsubishi brand. Thanks Scotty!
Mitsubishi was real auto maker and was strong competitor in the auto world. They're the original tech source for the Hyundai some decades ago. Still can produce amazing cars but idk what's unruled in their corps and what business men are doing to mess up the design and engineering of the Mitsubishi. I rent the Mitsubishi few times and surprise by its quality and thought that Toyota is not the greatest but the Mitsubishi could be 2nd greatest.
I am on my third Outlander and it is the best car I have ever owned. I've had Dodge, GM, Ford, Nissan, Mercedes, even was dumb enough to buy British years ago (UGH).
My 2001 Montero was the best vehicle I've ever owned. After 20 years and the fact that they haven't sold any in the US since 2008 due to the stupid government, getting parts was getting rather difficult so I sold it. The 2010 Toyota FJ cruiser I bought is a nice vehicle but I really miss my Montero.
First new vehicle I bought was a 1993 Montero. I had it for 17 years and 260k trouble free miles. I traded it in on the "Cash for Clunkers" and got $4,800. Mitz eventually started making bad cars. Hope they are back.
See those cars are being sold in the middle east for decades more than even Subaru or Honda. When I went to Saudi Arabia They only use Pajeros and Land cruisers in the deserts. If you take Subaru or Honda they will make fun on you. US people got low information about them. But next years they will go up Toyota. But why only Mitsubishi let only Outlander in the US? Where is the magnificent Pajero? I trust Scooty.
Proud owner of the V6 2020 Outlander. I live in a place that gets loads of snow and it never failed me once in the snow over the years. Even with all season tires. Thanks for the great review Scotty
@bhaumikpatel4077 I can't speak for the newer models since they're V4 with SVT transmission but, based on the reviews of those ones I'm pretty sure it'll perform splendidly well. As long as ur all seasons are only a few months old they will serve u well in the winter but since it's a new car for extra safety and extra precaution I would recommend u grab a nice pair of used winter tires for dirt cheap and slap them on just to give u better braking range and added stability and control. But their AWC system will definitely please you... I'll wait for ur report after the first snow storm :)
@@bhaumikpatel4077in case of southern Ontario just use the winter tire not because of snow but for the fact that we get a lot of road freeze which all season tires are bad dealing with
2023 OUTLANDER has 2021 NISSAN ROGUE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION; however, why Outlander fuel economy is 13% worse than Rogue? Can anyone explain. The Outlander weight is not that much higher...i could not find the drag coefficient specs for these cars, though
I bought a 2022, and what a great car. You either like or hate the looks. Some of my friends make fun of it because it is unusual, but that makes it easy to spot in a crowded parking lot. I have nicknamed it "The Outlandish".
I’m glad to see Mitsubishi getting back into things, I had an Eclipse I loved. I have had family members with Outlander Sports and while leased, they were pretty damn solid. Really few issues
@@anonlarson2875 Are you saying that Mitsubishi is selling a Nissan product with Mitsubishi Emblems on it? Or Nissan Rogue body with Mitsubushi drive train?
@@fazilm1Nissan owns about 30% of Mitsubishi Motors, Mitsubishis are basically 30% a Nissan. That's why they've been bad in the last 10 years. Those damn CVTs.
I bought my 2022 Outlander 7 months ago for my business. It's been absolutely trouble free and I get a lot of positive comments about it from my customers
My 22 is a freaking mess. I can see how it could be an awesome car but something had to happen to mine. I was the second owner, thinking I was getting a great deal at 17k miles
Had a 2018 outlander 4cyl with the cvt Was very reliable and easy to maintain. Yes the cvt is not a great transmission but servicing it every 30k will make it last Had 97,000 miles on it when we traded it in for a bigger car
Hi. I own a 2018 purchased it brand new with 16 miles i currently have it 44xxx miles. I do oil changes every 5k miles. What type of servicing did they do at 30k miles? Thank you for your time.
I've had an Outlander Sport since 2014 with no major issues till this year (driven mostly in PA and the exhaust is now shot). While I consider Mitsubishi to be average, I will say they make great air conditioners. We've since moved to Texas and the AC keeps us quite chilly. I'm willing to buy another Mitsubishi based on my experience with the AC alone.
It's because Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Mitsubishi Motor's sister company, has been making commercial HVAC for over 50 years. Mitsubishi reliability is severely underrated because their marketing department sucks.
My father sold his 2017 outlander with 200.000 miles and plenty of life. Mine is at 143.000 now, nothing wrong happened yet to any of those cars. So don't worry about it you will be good.
@@kromahj Yes, it's still considered new. But, I've seen people with a new Ford with less miles in the shop over and over. My Mitsubishi was built in Japan and the quality is better.....
I recently bought an outlander, I was kind of nervous clicking on the video but am ecstatic that you recommend it. I've been watching you for years and I really respect your opinion keep up the great work!
Scotty is such a cool guy I swear lol. They don’t make em like they used too! Would love to have a friend or even an associate like him. The way he talks with his hands is so legit ❤
Mitsubishi is one of the most durable and reliable engines in philippines than toyota, although toyota makes bunches of car models, Mitsubishi are known not too fancy cars but their engines speak the most
I'm glad you like it. It will be my next car when my Outlander Sport dies. It's still going strong though, so I hope the Outlander is still good when the time comes.
In the United States those vebicles are worth more but in Puerto Rico🇵🇷 you get them for less price. Mitsubishi has been a good brand on vehicles and electronics as well for a really long time..🙂👍
To whoever reading this, never stop chasing your dreams you can do it. Keep pressing and thriving you will make it! Consistency is the key to achieve your goals.
I got a 2015 GT with 3.0v 6 and non-cvt auto trans I bought new. Other than a new battery in the cold of Michigan here its been a great vehicle with no problems. P.S. The Paddle shifts work great if your towing to keep you in the right gear range. The trans computer constantly tries to upshift when towing.
@@yaboi9191 I’m just saying it will be tough for them to make a comeback because whether or not that information is true, a lot of people are aware of it, and it will deter many buyers. it Mitsubishi must not feel much differently since they are discontinuing the car.
Thanks for this Scotty. My Lancer has one of those crappy CVT transmissions and I've already had the valve body replaced in it. I was actually looking at an Eclipse Cross or Outlander and this makes me feel better about possibly getting one of them for my next rig.
I just bought a 2023 Outlander Black Edition and I absolutely love it! Its got the tech package with the all digital display, a bigger screen, and all black rims. It really makes the diamond white paint pop!
They're great. I have 2011 Mitsubishi Outlander 2.4L, 4wd with CVT. I brought it used at 70,000km in 2015, and I'm 5th owner, not sure why so many previous owners but it was selling for only $14,000(cad) .... I took it. 8 years later and rolling at 200,000km I have zero issue other than regular maintenance. It surpassed all of my previous cars for these range/timeline of car ownership, I'm very impressed or is it just a dumb luck. No plans on getting rid of it, I'd keep it for another decade.
I bought a used 2010 lancer in 2013 with 50k miles on it, im now at 181k miles and no huge issues yet with routine maintenance even the same starter and alternator it had when i bought it. Hell, i replaced my serpentine belt at 175k miles and it still had the mitsubishi oem tag on it.
I've had a 2008 EVO Lancer GSR since new. After 250,000km, it needed a new clutch and a turbo. The turbo was still working but a check of the bearings showed that it was about due for replacement. These are both wear items IMO, so I was OK with that. The only thing that bothered me was the AYC pump, which had to be replaced 3 times. The third one was relocated from behind the rear differential to inside the trunk, and it never gave any problems after that. Mitsubishi should have replaced the first two under warrantee, but they didn't which is why I think that 10year/100k warrantee is completely fraudulent. Otherwise, the car is great and I still drive it today.
Same car and year over here.... have about 170,000km on the car. I've also had the pump replaced under warranty (1 time). Running e85 (flex fuel tune) and have taken it to multiple track days. Car has been rock solid so far (knock on wood). I have no complaints. We also have a 2015 outlander sport and 2015 mirage. No issues with any of them besides brake pads. Good cars in my opinion.
Thank you, Scotty, very informative. I bought a Mitsubishi cold climate heat pump system for my house last year. It heats my house down to -16F all by itself, then the matching electric furnace comes on when it gets colder to supplement the heat pump. Works very well, I’m so impressed. I’ll definitely look at a Mitsubishi Outlander next time!
@Anon Larson. Maybe you should look at a Rogue. They look, feel, and drive different. Underpinnings may be the same, but they sure made them feel completely different!
I’ve seen these around and I love the way it looks. Pretty different design👍I’ve had a Galant and a Lancer and they were pretty darn reliable. Would definitely buy one
I had a 2008 lancer. It was totaled in an accident that wasn't my fault over the summer. But i loved that car. Great in winter. Stylish, good looking, and sturdy as hell. Mitsubishi is pretty damn good in my opinion.
I had a 2011 Outlander SE that I drove for 9 years, putting around 160k miles on it. Got close to 30mpg on long highway trips, which was great for that generation. Engine was never a problem. I also found it very comfortable, especially as a tall driver. My biggest issues were no local dealer (two had either stopped handling Mitsubishi or shutdown altogether) and ability to get parts. At the end, the cost of some of the suspension and exhaust items I needed were more than the car was worth. They had sold so few of them in the US from those years (< 10k/yr), that it was difficult to get parts when I needed them.
@@kl1958 Tough call. The only reason I wouldn't have bought it, with the benefit of hindsight, would be the residual value and parts cost/supply. I was otherwise happy with it. That 9 years is the longest I have kept a single vehicle.
@@pict4119My 2018 Outlander Sport SE with the 2.4 gets a consistent 32 mpg It’s only rated for 28 I only use 87 reg from a brand named Gas station 6 yrs old and I have had no problems Not even a light bulb I do a drain and fill on the CVT every 40K and change the CVT paper in line filter located under the battery box every 60 K Do this and don’t abuse the CVT and you will have no problems.
If I’m not mistaken, I think this is actually a Nissan rogue with Mitsubishi badging on it. Good looking car. I owned a 2012 outlander with a V6… I loved the car… Traded it off for a truck this year… My 2012 outlander had zero problems… I did change the timing belt at 100,000 miles… But other than that just oil changes and tires and brakes… It never burned oil… It never leaked oil.
Those Nissan 2.5 QRs have been around since like 2002. Not bad engines and they were ahead of their time way back then imo. Not a fan of certain Nissan or Mitsubishi models, but Nissan does make good engines.
I've got an old 2004 Endeavor, and this honestly seems like an update to that series more than an outlander. I love the Endeavoor and would pick one of these up if I could swing the price.
@@gratefulbear257 I had two of them I sold first with 196K miles, and the other with 200K miles, just did brakes and 02 sensors, nothing else broke on these they are tanks (also timing belts but this is maintenance)
I have a 2022 and 2014 outlander. The new outlander is amazing. Everything you said was true from the gas to the tires. I bought mine used and the warranty carries over from the original owner! Most of the dealerships don't charge over MSRP as well since its a requirement from the HQ. Such a good buy for what you get and it looks amazing!
I have a 2020 outlander and I haven't had any problems with it. One of the best cars I have ever had. The only thing I have to do on it is just your basic service.
Proud owner of a 2022 outlander myself. It's a great vehicle, has exceeded every expectation I had. Does NOT get 40 on the highway though. Most I've got is 35
Finally Scottie!!! I was waiting for you're review on the car that I have , the SE in white with the tech package... Bose stereo, 12" screen roof also drives itself but after 10 seconds a warning light comes on and tells you to put your hands back on the steering wheel... some really nice stuff. Love it... Great channel by the way, have been with you for years now. God bless.
I remember when Mitsubishi and Nissan had great cars. I hope they come back. I wouldn't buy one yet but hopefully they come back. On another note, I can't say why, but I absolutely love the front end styling on this. There is something fascinating to me about thr headlights.
@@TopG800 Supposedly, a new eclipse is currently in the design phase thanks to the remodeled Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi deal. So one of their sports cars might make a return at some point in the coming years.
I had a Mitsubishi mirage back in the day. It was super reliable standard transmission. I believe it was a 93 and I had to replace the clutch around 300k but other than that it ran like a top. Sold it at 500k for 500$ to a friend and he had it for another couple years. Wife and I are looking to get a new vehicle and this one is on my radar. It looks like a good option for the price.
Why? My son drives 2009 CR-V with 2,0L turbo engine that runs flawlessly all the time. Why this Scotty is at war with turbo charged engines? And for how long? I'm positive he drove a a car with such an engine in the past and was in love with it.
Neah that's it. If Scotty recommending this. I am buying this as my next compact SUV. Thanks to Scotty's advise of how to maintain Nissan Jatco CVT especially after it reaching 100K KM's and following that routine has actually worked wonders!
I have a '17 outlander sport. I bought it brand new at the end of the model year for $15,900. I needed a new car, cheap as I was saving all I could for a new house. I can say that Mitsubishi makes a really good vehicle. Oil changes, tires and brakes, thats it. 81,000 miles and runs like a top. Test drove the new outlander when my wife bought a new car last year. I love the styling and everything about the car ecept for the ride. I like feeling the road, but it was rough. Went with a santa fe. Def a step up in comfort. Still i would buy another Mitsu.
i got 2016 outlander, 100,000 miles now. i just change oil follow the 30-60-90 rules. same and feels like brand new. i bought brand new for $22,500 SE. now it’s more like $38,000 for SEL. wheeww no more trade in needed. expensive and interest rate is 7-%10.
It’s Been One Hell of a Ride, Thank You:

As a salesman at Mitsubishi - Seeing you like the Outlander makes me even more confident selling it! 😀
Let us know if you see a bump in sales after this video.
yes because Scott is something else.
He is the best out of 5 millions
Now i'm thinking about one the next 4 years
Hey could you tell me the mileage outlander phev gives? The official number says 26mpg and Scott here says 40…I am confused.
@@nikhil4utube Might be MPG vs MPGe so normal gas & diesel vehicles are rated as mile per gallon. Where as electric vehicles, CNG or propane & some Plug in hybrids are rated as miles per gallon of gasoline-equivalent. In theory the EPA uses the amount of electric energy that's equal to the energy in one gallon of gasoline.
I bought one from the dealer brand new back in 2014 when I didn't know any better. But my wife liked it so much, she ended up driving it to and from her workplace. By the time she accumulated 90,000 miles on it, she gave it back to me, and I kept driving it up to 145,000 miles until I traded it for a new vehicle. There was nothing wrong with it. I could have kept accumulating miles on it because all the maintenance was done at the dealer. I am treating the new vehicle the same way. I follow the required maintenance schedule from the dealer, and keep all the documents in a file.
I am thinking to buy the same model. Here in Germany they say the plug in hybrid version has a lot of problems. Which engine did you have?
Only Scotty can release a video called "What the Hell is This" with no other explanation or even punctuation and get almost quarter of a million views in less than a week. People just know it's good. Speaks to his honesty and breadth of knowledge. What a legend!
Agreed
True 😂 everyone loves him ❤
I bought one this week based on your recommendation.
I have a '23 Outlander SE and I absolutely love it! I took it on a roadtrip from the midwest to california and that ride was so enjoyable with there lane assist "MyPilot". The camera in the windshield can spot the Speed Limit and asks for you to adjust and you just gotta push a button and it does it for you. 14 gallon tank, with gas prices $3 for 87 oct where I live, a little over $40 and I get almost 500 miles a fill up. I get complimented from time to time, mainly "I didn't know Mitsubishi made cars that nice" Lol.
Hell has frozen over: Scotty has something nice to say about a Mitsubishi. Never thought I would see the day!
I rented one of these the other day. It has the smoothest steering and is so quiet that I thought it was turned off. It easily goes off-road.
Mitsubishi is an AWESOME brand. Tough, reliable, durable and the build quality is incredible
This is an Nissan Xtrail and Altima engine. Refined by the years. Looks solid.
Mitsubishi is really trying to put good products out there. Its great to see them make real progress!
Good products were designed decades ago. Now it is just charging for needless nonsense.
Yes, but they have been making bad cars for years & people don't forget.
Should bring back the goddamn Lancer Evo if they're gonna make good cars
Their parent company, Nissan who bought Mitsubishi Motors a few years ago is determined to nerf them so the Nissan product lineup looks better by comparison
@@Whit_Siever Doesn't seem like that's working out for Nissan
My 2019 Outlander Sport is still going strong @ 120,000 miles. Not a single problem
Mine has almost 200,000 and is still going strong with just regular maintenance. By far the best car I’ve ever had!
I have a 2018 Outlander Sport SE
It’s 6 yrs old and has not had one problem
Not even a light bulb
Regular maintenance and I change CVT fluid every 30 K ( about 4 quarts ) drain and fill
Also the CVT inline paper filter located under the battery tray every 60 K
For someone who wants a good solid vehicle for a good price
Mitsubishi is the way to go
I have a 2022 Outlander SE and I absolutely love it! The gas mileage is great, there’s enough room for my family, and it’s very comfortable to drive. Ever since my back surgery, it’s been hard to drive for long distances. This SUV definitely took care of that issue!
Is the suspension adjustable??
I have a 2009 now has 70K bought it new and I love it is my everyday car I don’t travel to far at all that’s why is low in mileage, batteries,shocks,wheel sensors,regular maintenance and tires in 13 years, only 1 issue the was a rusted sensor but again I love it it will stay with me forever and I must say I do have a weekend vehicle as well!!

_”Made in Japan by Japanese people that know what they are doing.”_
*EXACTLY!*
My wife drives a 2022 outlander SEL AWD.
We paid sticker prices.
HWY MPG is around 36
A lot of bang for your buck.
My only complaint is the engine power. But for her it is fine. She has no complaints.
The 20 inch wheels give it a tight ride but you can feel the bumps through the cabin.
App doesn’t work great.
Being made in Japan and the 100k warranty we decided to buy it. I’m a Lexus. Toyota. Mazda guy.
But she likes it and it was a fair deal.
Hopefully it last 🤞
Get that cvt serviced every 30,000 miles and you should be fine. The cvt is the weak spot.
At what speed can you get 36 mpg? Interstate for us and we’re lucky to get 30mpg. We are not heavy on the accelerator and avg about 24.5 overall. Disappointing but we still love it. Getting our new hood next week and praying the paint matches.
@@insidedadshead9691 my wife has about a 40 minute round trip to work. Basically all highway miles. Speed limit is 55 so she probably drives between 55/60. We just got back from a seven hr round trip and I drove and got 32 mpg averaging 70 mph. Remember if you sit in drive throughs… warm your car up… etc. that will kill your mpg average.
Mazda for life ❤
Our 22 Outlander has 17K miles on it and still runs like brand new. This is what’s good about Japanese cars they invested all their time in making the best automobile engines to compete with high end vehicles
Watching this in my 2021 Mirage. Today's Mitsubishi is what all other car companies should be. No subscription heated seats or remote start, no turbo, no crazy tech to break and cost thousands.
SOOOO TRUE MY SUBARU has remote start that i have to pay 15$ a month for... why do i have to pay for a feature of the car LOL.
I'm thinking of getting a 2022 Mitsubishi mirage G4 It's got 37k miles and it's being sold for 9500. Is it gonna last me?
@@thedevilsdaughter9793that sounds like one heck or a desl for a low mileage 2 year old car
I used to own a 2008 lancer for 9 years. The only problem I ever had with it was an exhaust leak and a dead battery after the first 7 years. Great car, and I used to drive it hard too
The same here ...I really loved my Lancer!
Why didn’t you just buy the Lancer Evolution instead?
@@applepoop10 probably because he needed a car to use daily. I wouldn't daily an Evo :/ too precious
@@applepoop10 when I got it, it was late 2007 and the new EVO didn’t exist yet plus it would be way more expensive. And it was a strange situation. I saw one, fell in love with the design and my car that I had literally dies that very day so I needed a car asap.
This one is actually a Nissan Rouge.
Rented a 2024 SE today and comfortable as heck, rode great and real good gas mileage.
My first car as a teenager was a 2005 Mitsubishi gallant,my second car a 2016 Mitsubishi lancer which I still own and use without any issue and I just bought a 2023 Mitsubishi outlander it’s the best car right now no debate. Lots of people sleep on this brand. I have driven various brands but none come near Mitsubishi. The new Mitsubishi outlander drives like a dream. It’s a beautiful work of art
it’s actually very popular outside the North American market
Nice to see Scotty starting to like Mitsubishi! lol
next week he wont anymore
Shut up...
@@ventocz6476 Next week: "Here is why this Mitsubishi i liked literally last week is crap"
@@lanceryderwilson8618 i had 3 and they lasted forever. Never any issues. Just oil change and one had a bearing which after 9 years was still covered by warranty. In the rest of the world including Japan mitsus are some of the best most reliable cars
He looks, that he received some from the company 😅😅
haven't watched scotty in a long minute and it's the 1st time i've seen him pretty happy and very enthusiastic in a long while . good for him.
I got tired of him constantly bitching about EVERYTHING.
I never really liked SUVs but was surprised as hell after driving this on vacation. It’s not obnoxiously big or hard to maneuver, was great on gas, and was fun to drive. I also liked that the model I drove didn’t use an electronic shifter or electronic e-brake. Used ones are actually pretty cheap, too. Hard to believe it doesn’t get more love, honestly.
It has a V6 option with 6 speed transmission.
Big kudos to Mitsubishi for putting a standard flat 4 engine in this vehicle. Simple to work on and reliable, no fancy gimmicks. Other manufacturers put turbos on small displacement engines which in the long run could diminish it, especially 3-cylinder engines with turbos. Mitsu just has to market themselves a lot better and come out with more solid vehicles.
Mitsubishi did a great job designing this car 🚗 it looks astonishing and it stands out among other SUV on the road.
I hate the styling that is my opinion, but it is reliable
looks like a lexus/land rover made a baby lol
@@TopG800 I totally agree, the front end of this thing is flat out HIDEOUS.
I'm pretty sure it's a reliable, solid car, but it's ugly af. lmao.
Ive had a 2010 outlander since 2015 and it has suprisingly been one of the best cars ive ever owned.
They're really solid if you maintain them even remotely
But this ones a Nissan Pathfinder now
@@atgimm2090 Nissan rogue my guy. Actually it's better than a rogue bc the rogue has a 3 cylinder turbo now.
Got two of them.
All the older outlanders had the bulletproof Mitsu developed 2.4 petrol engines (in my country anyway). Not fast or particularly efficient. But they could take serious abuse.
Scotty,
I love your energy and enthusiasm.
You are a bright bright light in this murky world of corporate shenanigans and fakery.
You left out that have been kicked out of 100 plus countries in past history but we never got the memo.
I drove one for several months. Can’t speak for its long term reliability, but it was nice.
Why did you end up getting rid of it?
I drive for a living in houston Texas so I see alot of different cars on highway every day and I've always wondered why Mitsubishi and Mazda are the least popular of the Japanese brands. It's very rare I ever see a Mitsubishi these days . When I was a kid the lancers and eclipse were everywhere
I could say with total confidence that mitsubishi is the most underrated car out there. Mazdas are gaining clients over Toyota and Honda but Mitsubishis aren't 🤷
Less dealership
It’s lack of dealership support. Houston has several Mitsubishi dealers but they are mainly always the most backwards. High pressure, second chance financing, 25 chain smoking, fast talking ex-cons all looking for a commission. Their lots maybe have a dozen Mitsubishi’s and 300 preowned vehicles. Until Mitsubishi cracks down on dealer network, a lot of people won’t go to them. No matter how much of a value they are.
@Harold Beauchamp 100% agree. It's not that Mitsu made bad cars, they just made bad business decisions. I remember in the 90s and early 2000s when Mitsu was going toe to toe with the big Japanese MFGs in the NA market. What's weird though is their overseas presence is huge. For example in Australia, Honda is pulling out and Mitsu is 2nd only to Toyota. Perception is reality it seems.
We are in the market for a car and I completed forgot about Mitsubishi. I was given this as a rental. I'm 6-2 and was comfortable behind the wheel. My wife had to make a 7 hour trip with it. Initially, she thought it was too big. But now she wants one. She said she felt very safe driving it. She has also watched many reviews and priced one. We are looking at 40k or less with many options. And the warranty is 10 years, WOW.
Hi so any news about this car?
@KoDeMondo Yes , bought one, fully loaded. My only complaint is the engine. It really lacks power when you need it. I have to account for this when making a left turn. She is perfectly fine with the lack of power.
How is the ride, those 20 inch wheels don't provide much cushion between the rim and the potholes/pits in today's roads.
I bought the 2023 Outlander SE. Haven't had a single problem with it. I bought it in the Dark Blue color. Looks black at night, but when the sun's on it or the sun comes up, you can see that it's blue. I've gotten Lots of compliments from people and those who ride in the 2nd row always have a smile on their face. "This is a Nice Car!" Nice sound system too. Thanks Scotty. 🙂
I have one of these and it’s hands down the best bang for the buck and the warranty is great . I’ve owned it for a little over a year and I’ve had no issues
I’ve had my 2023 Outlander for 6 months and love it. The CVT transmission is as smooth as silk, and Scotty’s right, the gas mileage is phenomenal.
I have a 2005 Mitsubishi and it is still going. My 2012 Prius V needs is Hydraulic Brake Booter replaced for $5000. It was recalled but Toyota will not honor the recall. The dealer is the only one that fix it. So it is sitting in the garage for 8 months and now the battery died.
I’m glad to see Mitsubishi is making a come back. A couple years ago I saw very few Mitsubishi’s on the road by me. Now a see a few of these a day. I might switch over from VW who’ve jacked the prices up on all their cars.
Haven’t looked at Mitsubishi in a long time, your review is interesting, gonna have to go by and check one out. By the way, with all the fancy computer stuff and screens they are putting on the new cars, don’t you think a really nice touch would be a on board diagnostic read out on that fancy screen. You could check out your engine and transmission and all those sensors with a touch of a button.
@@mcc7762 yeah, unfortunately; you are absolutely right, about THAT; on the other hand; if enough customers "asked for it"... ¿Do you remember that OLD saying= "The customer is always right"? (I wonder what ever happened to THAT attitude?)
I have a 2018 Outlander Sport
Here is a list of everything that has gone wrong in 4 1/2 years of ownership.
Ready here it is
……………..
Nothing
Nada
Not even a lite bulb
It’s rated for 23 city and 28 highway
I get 28 city and between 32-35 on the highway
Everybody knocks Mitsubishi except the people that actually own it.
@@anguslean4058 they're really nice honestly
@@anguslean4058 you are right they are very reliable, i recently sold my 2008 outlander for my cousin with 120k miles no problems at all,,6 years of driving..all kind of weather
Nah, there's no continue income streams from their customers. An actual OBDII on board diagnostic readout would also bring the Karens out the dealerships complaining if their fuel trim readings are off my .0001% to the service shops.
I've owned 2 Mitsubishi Lancer (2009 and 2015) Those things were built like tanks... very sturdy, good looking enough, fun to drive. Both were front wheel drive.
good looking enough? complete eye sore
I saw this exact car in February this year at a Mitsubishi dealer in Sapporo. This car really left a good impression and got me interested in the Mitsubishi brand. Thanks Scotty!
Mitsubishi was real auto maker and was strong competitor in the auto world. They're the original tech source for the Hyundai some decades ago. Still can produce amazing cars but idk what's unruled in their corps and what business men are doing to mess up the design and engineering of the Mitsubishi. I rent the Mitsubishi few times and surprise by its quality and thought that Toyota is not the greatest but the Mitsubishi could be 2nd greatest.
I am on my third Outlander and it is the best car I have ever owned. I've had Dodge, GM, Ford, Nissan, Mercedes, even was dumb enough to buy British years ago (UGH).
My 2001 Montero was the best vehicle I've ever owned. After 20 years and the fact that they haven't sold any in the US since 2008 due to the stupid government, getting parts was getting rather difficult so I sold it. The 2010 Toyota FJ cruiser I bought is a nice vehicle but I really miss my Montero.
Wow, that’s a pretty good rap for the Mitzi.
Pajero/Shogun/Montero has been killed off worldwide as of 2021
First new vehicle I bought was a 1993 Montero. I had it for 17 years and 260k trouble free miles. I traded it in on the "Cash for Clunkers" and got $4,800. Mitz eventually started making bad cars. Hope they are back.
Our L200 triton pickup with 4d56 diesel engine was one of our family's best owned and reliable vehicle.
@@finerbiner wow. First gen monteros are one of the best looking SUV of all mitz line up for me.
See those cars are being sold in the middle east for decades more than even Subaru or Honda.
When I went to Saudi Arabia
They only use Pajeros and Land cruisers in the deserts.
If you take Subaru or Honda they will make fun on you.
US people got low information about them.
But next years they will go up Toyota.
But why only Mitsubishi let only Outlander in the US?
Where is the magnificent Pajero?
I trust Scooty.
Proud owner of the V6 2020 Outlander. I live in a place that gets loads of snow and it never failed me once in the snow over the years. Even with all season tires. Thanks for the great review Scotty
I recently got 2023 LE in Southern Ontario. How was the all season tire performance in snow? I really want to give it a try this winter!
@bhaumikpatel4077 I can't speak for the newer models since they're V4 with SVT transmission but, based on the reviews of those ones I'm pretty sure it'll perform splendidly well. As long as ur all seasons are only a few months old they will serve u well in the winter but since it's a new car for extra safety and extra precaution I would recommend u grab a nice pair of used winter tires for dirt cheap and slap them on just to give u better braking range and added stability and control. But their AWC system will definitely please you... I'll wait for ur report after the first snow storm :)
@@bhaumikpatel4077in case of southern Ontario just use the winter tire not because of snow but for the fact that we get a lot of road freeze which all season tires are bad dealing with
Hold onto the V6, last of the Mitsubishi built vehicles, and last without a CVT.
2023 OUTLANDER has 2021 NISSAN ROGUE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION; however, why Outlander fuel economy is 13% worse than Rogue? Can anyone explain. The Outlander weight is not that much higher...i could not find the drag coefficient specs for these cars, though
I bought a 2022, and what a great car. You either like or hate the looks. Some of my friends make fun of it because it is unusual, but that makes it easy to spot in a crowded parking lot. I have nicknamed it "The Outlandish".
I’m glad to see Mitsubishi getting back into things, I had an Eclipse I loved. I have had family members with Outlander Sports and while leased, they were pretty damn solid. Really few issues
It's not an actual Mitsubishi, but a Nissan Rogue. Scotty should know this.

Hi. I own a 2018 purchased it brand new with 16 miles i currently have it 44xxx miles. I do oil changes every 5k miles. What type of servicing did they do at 30k miles? Thank you for your time.
@@dean_carries5940 CVT fluid change every 30K is recommended for all CVT Mitsubishi vehicles including older ones that previously were every 60K.
I've had an Outlander Sport since 2014 with no major issues till this year (driven mostly in PA and the exhaust is now shot). While I consider Mitsubishi to be average, I will say they make great air conditioners. We've since moved to Texas and the AC keeps us quite chilly. I'm willing to buy another Mitsubishi based on my experience with the AC alone.
😅 well said. That’s why I bought one last year.
It's because Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Mitsubishi Motor's sister company, has been making commercial HVAC for over 50 years. Mitsubishi reliability is severely underrated because their marketing department sucks.
Outlander sport is a different vehicle than the one in this video
@@ThorD4602 The point I was making is that Mitsubishi is worth buying for the air conditioner alone.
This! Had a 2010 mitsubishi galant- best AC ever!!!
We have an Outlander Sport. 90k miles. Not a thing has gone wrong with it. Very solid.
My father sold his 2017 outlander with 200.000 miles and plenty of life. Mine is at 143.000 now, nothing wrong happened yet to any of those cars. So don't worry about it you will be good.

I’ve got about 216k on my sport and still going strong. No check engine light😊 Will definitely consider the outlander for my next ride.
This needed to be said. I've owned my Outlander Sport for 2 years now, and it's been a trooper. No issues at all.
Different car, this is an outlander, the sport is a completely different vehicle.
I owned outlander sport, untill 2 years in i realized its a feminem car. Made me look like a betch.
I bought a 2019 outlander in 2019. No regrets. They're putting money back into the engineering and I love the updates, might trade up.
In the United States those vebicles are worth more but in Puerto Rico🇵🇷 you get them for less price. Mitsubishi has been a good brand on vehicles and electronics as well for a really long time..🙂👍
To whoever reading this, never stop chasing your dreams you can do it. Keep pressing and thriving you will make it! Consistency is the key to achieve your goals.
I got a 2015 GT with 3.0v 6 and non-cvt auto trans I bought new. Other than a new battery in the cold of Michigan here its been a great vehicle with no problems. P.S. The Paddle shifts work great if your towing to keep you in the right gear range. The trans computer constantly tries to upshift when towing.

Thanks for this Scotty. My Lancer has one of those crappy CVT transmissions and I've already had the valve body replaced in it. I was actually looking at an Eclipse Cross or Outlander and this makes me feel better about possibly getting one of them for my next rig.
I just bought a 2023 Outlander Black Edition and I absolutely love it! Its got the tech package with the all digital display, a bigger screen, and all black rims. It really makes the diamond white paint pop!
Does it have a sunroof?
They're great. I have 2011 Mitsubishi Outlander 2.4L, 4wd with CVT. I brought it used at 70,000km in 2015, and I'm 5th owner, not sure why so many previous owners but it was selling for only $14,000(cad) .... I took it. 8 years later and rolling at 200,000km I have zero issue other than regular maintenance. It surpassed all of my previous cars for these range/timeline of car ownership, I'm very impressed or is it just a dumb luck. No plans on getting rid of it, I'd keep it for another decade.
I bought a used 2010 lancer in 2013 with 50k miles on it, im now at 181k miles and no huge issues yet with routine maintenance even the same starter and alternator it had when i bought it. Hell, i replaced my serpentine belt at 175k miles and it still had the mitsubishi oem tag on it.
@@jarwins649 - And all this because Mitsubishi uses an old, proven, reliable engine and accessories 🤨
I've had a 2008 EVO Lancer GSR since new. After 250,000km, it needed a new clutch and a turbo. The turbo was still working but a check of the bearings showed that it was about due for replacement. These are both wear items IMO, so I was OK with that. The only thing that bothered me was the AYC pump, which had to be replaced 3 times. The third one was relocated from behind the rear differential to inside the trunk, and it never gave any problems after that. Mitsubishi should have replaced the first two under warrantee, but they didn't which is why I think that 10year/100k warrantee is completely fraudulent. Otherwise, the car is great and I still drive it today.
Same car and year over here.... have about 170,000km on the car. I've also had the pump replaced under warranty (1 time). Running e85 (flex fuel tune) and have taken it to multiple track days. Car has been rock solid so far (knock on wood). I have no complaints.
We also have a 2015 outlander sport and 2015 mirage. No issues with any of them besides brake pads. Good cars in my opinion.
Thank you, Scotty, very informative. I bought a Mitsubishi cold climate heat pump system for my house last year. It heats my house down to -16F all by itself, then the matching electric furnace comes on when it gets colder to supplement the heat pump. Works very well, I’m so impressed. I’ll definitely look at a Mitsubishi Outlander next time!
they make tons of HVAC system for building. This company is huge, their car division is small tho.
Mitsubishi also makes the best ball point pens in the world. Literally!! You should try it!
You could look at a Nissan Rouge. It is the exact same vehicle.
@Anon Larson. Maybe you should look at a Rogue. They look, feel, and drive different. Underpinnings may be the same, but they sure made them feel completely different!
@@mrgurulittle7000 I'm poor lol. I just like Scotty's videos and know a lot about cars.
I’ve seen these around and I love the way it looks. Pretty different design👍I’ve had a Galant and a Lancer and they were pretty darn reliable. Would definitely buy one
I had a 2008 lancer. It was totaled in an accident that wasn't my fault over the summer. But i loved that car. Great in winter. Stylish, good looking, and sturdy as hell. Mitsubishi is pretty damn good in my opinion.
I had a 2011 Outlander SE that I drove for 9 years, putting around 160k miles on it. Got close to 30mpg on long highway trips, which was great for that generation. Engine was never a problem. I also found it very comfortable, especially as a tall driver. My biggest issues were no local dealer (two had either stopped handling Mitsubishi or shutdown altogether) and ability to get parts. At the end, the cost of some of the suspension and exhaust items I needed were more than the car was worth. They had sold so few of them in the US from those years (< 10k/yr), that it was difficult to get parts when I needed them.
So if you had to do it again you would have bought the vehicle again?
@@kl1958 Tough call. The only reason I wouldn't have bought it, with the benefit of hindsight, would be the residual value and parts cost/supply. I was otherwise happy with it. That 9 years is the longest I have kept a single vehicle.
@@paulfromjupiter OK Sounds great...you have been most helpful. Thanks.
I have a 2016 Outlander Sport with 76K miles and no problems, runs great.
I have a 2022 sport with 15k. I hoping it will last 200k! I've never had a CVT before and that's the only concern I have....
What is MPG
@@pict4119My 2018 Outlander Sport SE with the 2.4 gets a consistent 32 mpg
It’s only rated for 28
I only use 87 reg from a brand named Gas station
6 yrs old and I have had no problems
Not even a light bulb
I do a drain and fill on the CVT every 40K and change the CVT paper in line filter located under the battery box every 60 K
Do this and don’t abuse the CVT and you will have no problems.
If I’m not mistaken, I think this is actually a Nissan rogue with Mitsubishi badging on it. Good looking car. I owned a 2012 outlander with a V6… I loved the car… Traded it off for a truck this year… My 2012 outlander had zero problems… I did change the timing belt at 100,000 miles… But other than that just oil changes and tires and brakes… It never burned oil… It never leaked oil.
We have an 04 outlander, 4cyl awd. It's been good to us for 8 years, over 180k on it
Those Nissan 2.5 QRs have been around since like 2002. Not bad engines and they were ahead of their time way back then imo. Not a fan of certain Nissan or Mitsubishi models, but Nissan does make good engines.
I thought the consensus was any Nissan car past the year 1999 was not good.
This outlander is basically a rebadged Nissan rogue, so yep.
@@TheCyberspaceCowboy Their trucks are good.
@@know916bound No
@Matt Cleod9. Nonono you dummy! You are the fifth stereotypical person saying that! Nissan only makes the power train. That's all!
My 5 speed Mitsubishi 2017 has 228,000 miles original clutch and motor only changed basic maintenance parts and it feels fast still
I've got an old 2004 Endeavor, and this honestly seems like an update to that series more than an outlander. I love the Endeavoor and would pick one of these up if I could swing the price.
How many miles your endeavor got
@@gratefulbear257 I had two of them I sold first with 196K miles, and the other with 200K miles, just did brakes and 02 sensors, nothing else broke on these they are tanks (also timing belts but this is maintenance)
I have a 2005 outlander with 70k miles and it runs like new.
I like it Scotty, it's very stylish. Can't beat the gas mileage for an SUV. 😎👌👍
I have a 2022 and 2014 outlander. The new outlander is amazing. Everything you said was true from the gas to the tires. I bought mine used and the warranty carries over from the original owner! Most of the dealerships don't charge over MSRP as well since its a requirement from the HQ. Such a good buy for what you get and it looks amazing!
How is the ,2014 doing
Nice to see Mitsubishi trying again and actually making some good cars again.
They always made great cars just USA never got them
@@anthonyramdin1037 good point
I have a 2020 outlander and I haven't had any problems with it. One of the best cars I have ever had. The only thing I have to do on it is just your basic service.
I test drove one yesterday, behold it shows up on my UA-cam. I already ordered one.
Proud owner of a 2022 outlander myself. It's a great vehicle, has exceeded every expectation I had. Does NOT get 40 on the highway though. Most I've got is 35
It is rated at 31 hwy.
@@davidhoulden5791 yeah, idk where he got 40. Lol
I4 or V6? That would make the difference.
@@JodyBruchon they only make them 4 cylinder
Finally Scottie!!! I was waiting for you're review on the car that I have , the SE in white with the tech package... Bose stereo, 12" screen roof also drives itself but after 10 seconds a warning light comes on and tells you to put your hands back on the steering wheel... some really nice stuff. Love it... Great channel by the way, have been with you for years now. God bless.
I remember when Mitsubishi and Nissan had great cars. I hope they come back. I wouldn't buy one yet but hopefully they come back. On another note, I can't say why, but I absolutely love the front end styling on this. There is something fascinating to me about thr headlights.
Sadly from the research and what I found, Mitsubishi may never make a performance/sports car again endless it is probably a boring unreliable ev
The engine and the transmission on this Outlander is from Nissan. Ironically.
Agree with you about the front. It seems to be either you love it or hate it. I think the front is pretty cool…wonder why it’s so dividing for people.
@@TopG800 Supposedly, a new eclipse is currently in the design phase thanks to the remodeled Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi deal. So one of their sports cars might make a return at some point in the coming years.
I had a Mitsubishi mirage back in the day. It was super reliable standard transmission. I believe it was a 93 and I had to replace the clutch around 300k but other than that it ran like a top. Sold it at 500k for 500$ to a friend and he had it for another couple years. Wife and I are looking to get a new vehicle and this one is on my radar. It looks like a good option for the price.
Why? My son drives 2009 CR-V with 2,0L turbo engine that runs flawlessly all the time. Why this Scotty is at war with turbo charged engines? And for how long? I'm positive he drove a a car with such an engine in the past and was in love with it.
I had a Mitsubishi Endeavor back in the day, one of the best SUV’s ever! I wish Mitsubishi would bring it back!
I bought this car a week ago!!! Super car! I am very glad!
Glad Scotty liked a new Mitsubishi. I was first sceptical about this Outlander, because it's actually a Nissan rogue underneath.
Neah that's it. If Scotty recommending this. I am buying this as my next compact SUV. Thanks to Scotty's advise of how to maintain Nissan Jatco CVT especially after it reaching 100K KM's and following that routine has actually worked wonders!
I have a '17 outlander sport. I bought it brand new at the end of the model year for $15,900. I needed a new car, cheap as I was saving all I could for a new house.
I can say that Mitsubishi makes a really good vehicle. Oil changes, tires and brakes, thats it. 81,000 miles and runs like a top.
Test drove the new outlander when my wife bought a new car last year. I love the styling and everything about the car ecept for the ride. I like feeling the road, but it was rough. Went with a santa fe. Def a step up in comfort. Still i would buy another Mitsu.
I own a 2013 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport FWD with 200,000 miles. Still going strong!
I had a 2004 lancer 1.3cc 4cy engine it was the best car ever 210,000km never burned oil very economical and it never failed anything on it.
Had one -98 worst car ever had with strange problems no other car has.
No car channel keeps it more real and authentic than Scotty.
I just got last year a 2023 Outlander with 20 inch
i got 2016 outlander, 100,000 miles now. i just change oil follow the 30-60-90 rules. same and feels like brand new. i bought brand new for $22,500 SE. now it’s more like $38,000 for SEL. wheeww no more trade in needed. expensive and interest rate is 7-%10.
