All petrol variants have subtly revised front fascia designs, and smoked tail-light lenses with full LED lighting. There's a larger centre bin, and cupholders that are now positioned along the length of the centre tunnel.
Gone are the 8.0 and 9.0-inch infotainment screens, as all variants are now equipped with a 12.3-inch touchscreen system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and three USB-C ports up front.
Yahama-branded sound systems are standard throughout the range, with all models bar the Exceed Touring featuring an eight speaker setup.

All petrol-only versions of the Outlander remain powered by a 2.5-litre four-cylinder making 135kW and 244Nm that's paired exclusively to a continuously variable transmission (CVT).
Kicking things off is ES, which is now priced from $39,990 (+$2250). It includes black cloth seats, 18-inch alloy wheels, and the aforementioned 12.3-inch touchscreen and eight-speaker Yahama sound system.
All-wheel drive is a $2500 option, but the ES is a strictly five-seat affair with the third row deleted from the options list. Supplied Credit: CarExpert Supplied Credit: CarExpert
One step up is the LS that now starts at $43,290 (+$2050). Upgrades include black-painted 18-inch alloy wheels, three rows of seat for a 5+2 layout, and two USB-C ports for the middle row. All-wheel drive is a $2500 option.
The LS and above are the first Australia-bound models to feature the Mitsubishi Connect system, which includes SOS emergency call assist, and automated notifications for collisions, theft and tow away. With a smartphone app owners can also remotely program the climate control system, preheat seats, find the vehicle, and send destinations to the navigation system.
In the middle of the pack is the seven-seat only Aspire priced at $47,790 (+$2950), which has 20-inch two-tone alloy wheels, black Granlux faux leather trim, a heated steering wheel, lane keeping assistance, and traffic jam assist. Supplied Credit: CarExpert
Towards the top of the pile is the Exceed that has a $55,140 RRP (+$2500). While pre-update Exceeds had seven seats, the revised model has just five seats, but includes a full-size alloy spare and a rear cargo floor box with lid.
Other features include quilted leather upholstery in black or grey, heated and ventilated front seats, aluminium pedals, frameless digital rear vision mirror, wing mirrors with auto tilt and memory settings, and front door foot lamps.
Topping the range is the $57,990 (+2800) Exceed Touring. Like the Exceed below it, it has lost two seats but gained a full-size alloy spare.
There's also quilted Brick Brown semi-aniline leather upholstery, massaging front seats, heated outboard rear seats, and a 12-speaker 1650W Yahama Ultimate sound system with subwoofer and dual amplifiers.
The Exceed Touring is also the only variant in the Outlander range to be available with a variety two-tone paint schemes: White Diamond, Moonstone Grey or Graphite Grey with a black mica roof; or Black Diamond with a Sterling Silver roof. Supplied Credit: CarExpert
Lesser models in the Outlander range are available in solid white, Cosmic Blue pearl, Sterling Silver metallic, Graphite Grey metallic, White Diamond prestige, Red Diamond prestige, and Black Diamond prestige. Aspire and Exceed variants can also be specified with Moonstone Grey prestige.
The revised Outlander range comes with a five-year, 100,000km warranty as standard. This can be extended to 10 years and 200,000km if you service within Mitsubishi's dealer network using its capped-price service program.
All vehicles are sold with 12 months of roadside assist, which can be extended for up to four years when the vehicle is serviced at an authorised Mitsubishi dealer.

‘Punching above our weight': Booming sector helping to lift Aussie economy
Australia's economy is getting a surprising boost from the wellness sector, which has quietly grown to one of the nation's leading sectors. According to a new report by Global Wellness Institute, Australia ranks seventh in the world when it comes to spending on their healthcare. In total this added $194.4bn in 2023, up 10.9 per cent year on year or around $7,402 per person. Wellness now makes up seven per cent of Australia's GDP, placing it behind the construction sector. Currently the construction industry accounts for around 9 per cent of GDP and employs more than 1.3 million people. Anytime Fitness managing director Simon Thompson says the results show the wellness economy is doing its share of the heavy lifting when it comes to Australia's economy. 'When you consider our population, Australia is punching above its weight and has pioneered many wellness communities that support healthy lifestyles, vibrant social connections, and sustainable living in its growing housing markets,' Mr Thompson said. Mr Thompson said the push was coming from younger Aussies. 'Gyms, instead of pubs and clubs, are now often the number one choice for weekend outings, and even dates,' he said. 'Gen Z now spends seven times the amount of money on getting fit than Gen X.' According to the report, Australia's overall wellness growth is coming across a number of sub-sectors. Wellness tourism has swelled by 32.9 per cent between 2019 to 2023 while thermal/mineral springs are up 21.5 per cent. Wellness real estate, mental wellness and physical activity round out the top five sectors. The report comes as prime minister Anthony Albanese separately spruiks the benefit to Australia reviving its building and manufacturing sectors. During a doorstop in the electorate of Bonner in Brisbane the prime minster and Energy Minister Chris Bowen talked up the home battery incentive and solar panel uptake. 'It's good for everyone because what it does is take pressure off the grid during peak times, and that's why this is such good public policy, good for households … of course, good right throughout Australia,' Mr Albanese says. According to the ministers, 28,000 Australian homes have installed a home battery under the government's policy. But Mr Albanese wants more Australians to take up the scheme and for the panels to be built in Australia. 'Chris (Bowen) was at the South Australian factory producing solar panels earlier this week, or at the end of last week, that's expanding by nine times,' Mr Albanese said. 'We also want to produce more things here. We have everything that goes into a battery. One of the progress we have is for battery manufacturing.' Mr Albanese went further calling for more large infrastructure projects such as trains and boats to be built in Australia. 'We want things made here and here in Queensland. I want more manufacturing, more jobs to be created here.'

Expat snaps up Bellevue Hill home for $21m at hot auction
A grand Bellevue Hill estate has sold for more than $21m— $6m above the latest price guide — at an exciting private auction tonight. There were 19 registered for the four-bedroom circa 1930s deceased estate 'Fernlee' at 41 Drumalbyn Rd, bought in 1990 for $2.3m by two doctors, Katherine Tang Yiu, and her late husband Robert. The property, on an elevated 930sqm block, has magnificent harbour views and is in a dress-circle position. It was marketed by Laing + Simmons Double Bay's Steven Zoellner and had a $13m to $14.3m guide when Fernleigh first hit the market early last month. It was revised to $15m 10 days ago after two offers were received. The exact sale price was $21,076,000.

Other sources said the buyer was an expat currently living overseas. There'd been speculation in other media that the buyer was media mogul Lachlan Murdoch, who lives nearby, but the sources said he wasn't the successful purchaser. When asked to explain why the home went so far above the buyer's guide, Zoellner said: 'This house is so unique, in a style that the buyers like something like … it has the elegance of an older-style home, with high ceilings, views and big rooms. 'There were 19 registered bidders, and it was super active. 'It was a private auction and only registered buyers could attend, and the room was completely full.' It's understood the property was bought in a company name. Auctioneer Jake Moore of Cooleys is understood to have had eight of the 19 who registered competing at rooms at Double Bay, with bidding opening at $16m and rising in $500,000 increments up to $20m. It was down to $1000k bids at the end, with four bidders over $20m and down to just two bidders above $21m. The underbidder was a Bellevue Hill resident. Katherine died at the age of 91 last July, but moved out six years ago and the house had been sitting empty. In an obituary, her beloved niece, Cho-Wai Cheung, wrote: 'I always marveled at her energy in handling a huge house and the expansive front and back yards. 'Aunty Katherine was gracious and resilient. She was a dedicated and loving wife, mother and grandmother. 'She had a good knowledge of the Chinese history and Chinese antiques. 'I was always fascinated by the historical background that she told me about the furniture and paintings in her house. 'Her mind was still so sharp!' The home was once owned by a man who received one of the highest awards that can be given by the Pope. It was purchased by Ulisse Pellegrini, managing director of the firm Pellegrini and Co, and his wife, May, in 1931 for an unknown amount. The respected firm, established in 1890 in Melbourne, provided religious supplies to Catholic churches and schools. Pellegrini died at Lewisham Hospital at the age of 56 in February 1950. According to his death notice in the Sydney Morning Herald: 'Mr Pellegrini was honoured with the Papal Knighthood of St Gregory in 1947 … Mr Pellegrini has been abroad on four occasions and in 1929 was received in private audience by the late Pope Pius Xi.'

Bizarre ‘Nintendo' solution to huge road problem
Chinese carmaker XPeng has unveiled a quirky new feature that could address one of Australia's biggest driving problems - road rage. And the EV maker's solution might be one of the cleverest ways to deal with bad drivers. The feature, called 'Road Rage Reliever', lets frustrated drivers 'throw' virtual emojis at the offender's car by using the vehicle's AR head-up display found in the new XPeng models. And it will look familiar to anyone who has enjoyed a game of Mario Kart, the Nintendo game that allows you to toss items at other road users while you race. Video circulating on social media shows the feature being introduced during the unveiling of the P7 which offers a massive 87-inch AR-HUD. During a live demonstration, XPeng showed how drivers can express their frustration by throwing virtual emojis onto the car in front by pressing a button on the steering wheel. XPeng claims the feature offers a safer way to release frustration without engaging in aggressive driving. However, the idea has received mixed opinions. Users online praised the feature as being the perfect solution for people with road rage, while others worry it could lead to further incidents caused by driver distraction. 'So you tap the screen while driving....I wonder what happens when driving distracted,' one user on Instagram said. 'Ummm does this distract the drivers?,' another said. 'This will not distract the driver in the slightest....,' another user said sarcastically. 'Imagine throwing a bunch, then they crash, and then you crash. Drivers shouldn't be allowed more distractions,' another commented. While there is visible criticism, other users saw the humorous side of things. 'Now add proximity chat at the same time with a timer. Turn the streets into a COD lobby,' One user said. 'Being visible only to you makes it ineffective, but if it was to both it'd end up being a game,' another said. According to XPeng, the feature is optional, and drivers must decide when it's safe to use. The XPeng P7 is being considered for the Australian market, but there is no confirmation yet on whether Australians will have the opportunity to see this vehicle on local roads. Additionally, it remains uncertain if the innovative Road Rage Reliever feature will be included if the car does become available. However, if introduced, it could be a surprisingly fitting addition considering the Australia's driving habits. In September 2024, a survey conducted by the insurer NRMA involving 1,464 drivers from two states highlighted a concerning trend in Australia's driving behaviour. The survey results revealed that 71 per cent of respondents had witnessed tailgating, 67 per cent had observed drivers excessively honking their horns, 60 per cent had noticed the use of hand gestures, and 58 per cent had seen motorists deliberately cutting in front of others.
