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:

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

By: 
carwow.co.uk

Pros
Plenty of cargo space
Upscale interior design and materials
Distinctive styling and paint color choices add personality

Cons
Front seats aren't very comfortable for long drives
Less than athletic handling

By: 
edmunds.com

For the Seltos's sophomore year, it gains a host of driver-assistance features as standard, including automated emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, and automatic high-beam headlamps. The larger 10.3-inch infotainment screen is now standard on more of the Seltos's trim levels, and all but the LX trim now come with automatic climate control and remote start; the top-spec SX receives a flat-bottomed steering wheel and a new Plum interior color scheme. The Nightfall Edition is new to the lineup this year and features unique black-painted 18-inch aluminum wheels and blacked-out exterior trim.

Pros
Roomier cabin than other subcompact SUVs,
slick infotainment features,
engaging driving dynamics.

Cons
Stiff-legged ride over bumpy surfaces,
optional seven-speed automatic occasionally stumbles,
base powertrain could use some refinement.
