Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The Ford Focus stands out as the best driver’s car in the class, with handling that truly entertains. It's complemented by a fine ride that almost matches a Volkswagen Golf for comfort and passenger space very nearly on a par with the Skoda Octavia. It's mainly the iffy interior quality and slightly lacklustre performance that mark it down.

Pros
Class-leading handling
Supple ride
Roomy rear seats

Cons
Mediocre performance
Golf is better equipped
Octavia has a much bigger boot

By: 
whatcar.com

Pros
Appealing looks
Value for money
Still great to drive

CONS
No electrified versions
1.0-litre petrol can feel strained
Seating position won't satisfy everyone

By: 
carbuyer.co.uk

The 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV comes with all wheel drive. Available transmissions include: 1-speed direct drive.Many of last year's optional advanced driving aids are now standard.Lumbar adjustment on driver's seat, rear USB ports and 8-inch display are now standard.GT gets new sound system, and new GT Premium package dresses up the interior.

PROS
Delivers plug-in SUV utility without a luxury SUV price
Offers a generous list of standard features
Can travel up to 22 miles solely on electric battery charge
Sophisticated all-wheel drive offers stability on slippery surfaces

CONS
Poor cabin quality with lots of creaks and rattles
Weak acceleration and vague steering make for a bad driving experience
Unlike the regular Outlander, it doesn't offer a third row
Small gas tank limits overall range

The 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander has enough value, features, and style to make it worth considering, but not to stand out.

Pros
Standard features list
Expanded active safety tech
All-wheel drive available across the range
Exterior styling

Cons
Cheap cabin materials
Anemic base engine
V-6 isn’t much of an upgrade
Cramped third-row seat

By: 
thecarconnection.com

The Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV is a roomy SUV that’s very economical for short journeys if you can plug it in to charge the battery – it’s just a shame it looks a bit drab and doesn’t drive that well

Pros
Cheap to run on short journeys
Quiet around town
Roomy back seats

Cons
Terrible infotainment system
Unsettled on bumpy roads
Drab interior
