TCC Test: 2007 Mitsubishi Outlander

Mitsubishi is celebrating its 25th anniversary of selling cars in the U. S. by unveiling the second-generation Outlander compact SUV, and the competition should take notice. Compact in name only, the 2007 Outlander is longer, taller and wider than the model it replaces. A wider track helps increase hip room. And despite a minimum ground clearance of 8.5 inches, step-in is easy and car-like.

In other words, this new Outlander's a much stiffer competitor for the RAV4, the CR-V, and the Escape. And with its newly acquired third-row seat, the Outlander puts a foot in the world of true mid-sized utes like the Honda Pilot.

It looks good!

Hopefully, Mitsu gets the success it deserves for it.

Are those the same rims as on the Silverado SS?

good job! the ONLY misgiving with this vehicle is that the 3.5 with 250+ hp is not available as an option.

I personally hope this puts a dent into Rav4 and CRV sales. Because it deserves to. Especially the lame ass four cylinder only CRV.

It looks like Mitsubishi poured a lot into this program and I think it shows. Sure, the third row headrests look like alien heads but it's all good.

I've never heard of this SUV. It looks good though, both inside and outside.
