2025 Mitsubishi Outlander price and specs
The updated petrol-powered Mitsubishi Outlander has received retuned steering and suspension, plus new equipment, but all members of the range are now at least $2000 pricier than before. The refreshed mid-size SUV goes on sale locally from June. Mitsubishi has yet to release local pricing and specifications for the updated Outlander PHEV lineup. Hundreds of new car deals are available through CarExpert right now. Get the experts on your side and score a great deal. Browse now. The Black Edition that slotted between the LS and Aspire is dead, while the Exceed and Exceed Tourer lose their third row of seating. All petrol variants have subtly revised front fascia designs, new wheel designs, and smoked tail-light lenses with full LED lighting. Inside, there's a larger centre bin, cupholders that are now positioned along the length of the centre tunnel, and "higher quality materials" and "ornate interior stitching". All interior lighting is now touch-capacitive LED, as well. Gone are the 8.0 and 9.0-inch infotainment screens, as all variants are now equipped with a larger 12.3-inch touchscreen system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus three USB-C ports up front. A 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster is now standard across the lineup, as are Yamaha-branded sound systems. As we've previously reported, all 2025 petrol Outlanders are fitted with an Australian-developed steering and suspension package which has also been adopted for global markets. There are recalibrated front and rear shock absorbers and a smaller-diameter front anti-roll bar, while the electric power steering mapping has been adjusted to improve on-centre feel and provide "a more linear response when turning". There are also new Bridgestone summer tyres, and there have also been updates to the chassis and body to reduce noise, vibration and harshness. The petrol-powered Outlander range continues to come exclusively with a naturally aspirated 2.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine and either front- or all-wheel drive. There's also a choice of five- or seven-seat configurations. Mitsubishi refers to the latter as a '5+2′ seating arrangement, evidently managing buyers' expectations about the amount of space back there. Fuel consumption is 7.5L/100km for the base ES, rising to 7.7L/100km for the LS and Aspire, 7.8L/100km for the all-wheel drive ES, and 8.1L/100km in all other variants. Mitsubishi hasn't yet published dimensions for the refreshed Outlander. The pre-facelift model's dimensions are listed below, and are unlikely to change much. All five-seat Outlanders have a full-size alloy spare, while seven-seat variants have a space-saver. 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. Mitsubishi hasn't yet provided service pricing for the updated Outlander lineup. All vehicles are sold with 12 months of roadside assistance, which can be extended for up to four years when the vehicle is serviced at an authorised Mitsubishi dealer. The Mitsubishi Outlander has a five-star safety rating from ANCAP, based on testing conducted in 2022. Standard safety equipment includes: Aspire grades and above get Mi-Pilot, which combines lane centring and Traffic Jam Assist functions. There are five trim levels in the petrol-powered Mitsubishi Outlander lineup. Mitsubishi has published only limited specification information thus far. The base ES comes standard with the following equipment: The LS adds: The Aspire adds: The Exceed adds: The Exceed Tourer adds: The following exterior finishes are offered on the Outlander: The Exceed Tourer is offered in a range of two-tone exterior finishes.

Outlander fans left puzzled as they spot multiple 'inconsistencies' ahead of final season
Outlanders fans flocked to Reddit to voice their concerns about one particular storyline surrounding Murtagh Fraser. Outlander's highly anticipated eighth and final season is looming with the show expected to air in late 2025 or early 2026. However, while the excitement is building for the grand finale, some die-hard fans are still hung up on previous plot "inconsistencies" surrounding their favourite characters which have left them puzzled. Fans rushed to the social media site Reddit to voice their concerns with the storyline surrounding Jocasta Cameron and Murtagh Fraser's romantic reunion. In the Starz show, the pair develop a romantic relationship despite the fact that Murtagh is supposed to be madly in love with Ellen, Jocasta's sister. This relationship is hugely different from what happens in the original Outlander books, written by Diana Gabaldon. In the novels, Murtagh actually dies at Culloden but in the series, he lives and his story continues, which is when his relationship with Jocasta develops. Murtagh eventually dies at the Battle of Alamance in the fifth season, the Irish Star reports. One fan took to Reddit to remark: "I would give myself a headache if I stopped to consider all of the inconsistencies they never thought about. Bless you for having the stomach for it. "That said, the the whole Jocasta/Murtagh 'reunion' when he brought Brianna to River Run made no sense. "Murtagh was a Fraser and wouldn't have been in the habit of hanging out at Leoch, but he attended the Gathering where he tried to court Ellen. Jocasta was already married off and gone by then. They never would have met before." A second echoed: "Maybe Murtagh visited Miss Fitzgibbons." A third replied: "Not impossible, but it wouldn't explain Jocasta acting like he's her long lost love." A fourth agreed: "Yes, her remembering his hands sounded as if they grew up together." Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

A fifth chimed in: "Even once Jocasta was married I suppose she still could have gone to the Gathering or otherwise visited her sister Ellen? "Jamie identifies him as a Fraser by surname but his aunt by marriage Mrs. Fitzgibbons is at Leoch. "When we met him he's traveling/living with the MacKenzies intermittently. "While obviously that's for Jamie's benefit, none of the other men behave as though he's an outsider or a guest at Leoch's table, to the point that Claire has to be told he's not just another Leoch MacKenzie. "I always assumed he had some marginal connection to the Leoch MacKenzies like a grandparent." In other news, several Outlander stars have joined forces for a new venture just last month.

Driven: 2025 Mitsubishi Outlander Is Plusher Than You'd Expect
The term "flagship" usually conjures images of an elegant sedan or a flashy full-size SUV. But things are a bit different over at Mitsubishi. The Japanese automaker considers the Outlander—a compact SUV that competes in one of the most mainstream segments there is—to be its flagship. We can see why Mitsu might say this when you compare the Outlander to the other vehicles the Japanese automaker sells in our market. Last redesigned for 2022, the Outlander is the only car in Mitsubishi's current stable that can be considered remotely competitive within its segment. It's a decent-looking crossover inside and out, and it also offers a relatively advanced plug-in-hybrid powertrain with more electric range than many of its rivals. The Outlander is also Mitsubishi's bestseller, which explains why the company is boasting about all the small changes it made for 2025's mid-cycle refresh. Little has changed underneath. The Outlander remains on the same platform as the Nissan Rogue and, in base form, still uses a dated Nissan four-cylinder engine paired with a continuously variable automatic transmission. But the update does include freshened front- and rear-end styling, additional standard features, suspension tweaks, more sound-deadening material, and two new audio systems from Yamaha with up to 12 speakers and 1650 watts of power. It's worth noting that these changes will only appear on gas-fed 2025 Outlanders; the PHEV will get the same updates for the 2026 model year. Say what you will about the Outlander's polarizing face, but the look is distinctive. The extra chrome trim and nice 20-inch wheels found on most trims (ES models get 18s) make the Mitsu look more upscale than a Toyota RAV4 or Honda CR-V. We drove one of the upper-trim models, an SEL, with the Premium package and thought the cabin's plushness was a good match for its aspirational sheetmetal. Soft-touch dashboard materials, quilted leather upholstery, and knurled switchgear make this interior a pleasant place to spend time. The Yamaha stereo's new speakers add an extra dash of visual interest. Even with our limited seat time, we'd rate the Outlander's accommodations near the top of the compact-SUV class. The Outlander has one other cabin trick up its sleeve: a standard third row. Since the Volkswagen Tiguan is dropping its third-row option for 2025, the Outlander will become the only compact SUV that can seat seven. But even Mitsubishi admits that the wayback is meant for "occasional use" (translation: It's only for kids, and even then, only in a pinch). Thankfully, the second-row seat is plenty comfortable for adults, and it slides fore and aft to offer various cargo configurations. The Outlander's middle-of-the-road driving demeanor continues to jibe well with its comfy interior. Driven at a reasonable pace, we found it quiet and refined by this segment's standards. We couldn't really notice the various changes to the dampers, spring rates, and bushings, but the additional sound-deadening appeared to be doing its job. As before, the Mitsu is no handling maestro; its mushy brake pedal and vague steering don't engender confidence when pushed to more aggressive speeds on twisty roads.... Not that you'll be gathering much speed to begin with. While the Outlander's Nissan Rogue sibling has adopted a turbocharged three-cylinder with variable-compression-ratio tech, the Mitsubishi chugs along with a carryover naturally aspirated 2.5-liter four making 181 horsepower. That isn't much in an SUV of this size, and the engine has to work hard to get the Outlander moving. The 2025 Outlander's pricing is reasonable on the lower end, starting at just over $31,000, but it's tough to justify the higher-end models that stretch well into the $40,000 range. Sure, the Mitsu does give you a solid amount of equipment for the money, but at that price point we'd spring for competitors that offer far more powerful engine options, like the Mazda CX-50. The changes made to the 2025 Outlander don't thrust it to the top of its class, but at the same time, it's far from our least favorite compact SUV. It's more refined and pleasant than you might expect a Mitsubishi to be, and its solid midpack performance is made more appealing if you need a third row of seats but don't want to step up to a mid-size SUV.
