Pros Cheap Inoffensive design Practical interior space Finally, more safety features
Cons Noisy engines Underwhelming power Mediocre fuel economy Lackluster quality
The 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport packs a lot of features into a small and somewhat practical crossover body. It can make for a good value proposition, and Mitsubishi provides a pretty solid warranty, too.

PROS Well-equipped for the price Excellent warranty coverage surpasses that of many rivals
CONS Ride quality is very rough over bumpy roads Many interior materials look and feel cheap to the touch Transmission is aggravating due to slow responses Raucous drone while accelerating, especially with 2.0-liter engine
