Mitsubishi Outlander

I'm driving the handsome G line 2/4WD 5 seater 2.4L and loving the ride as much as I love my wife (grin). This car drives solid and has an unassuming century run of 8.5 sec in shift gear mode. Recently decided to install a new set of performance coilovers & BBK and the lowered ride handling is even more amazing. Imagine cornering this huge machine at 60kmh with much grip and confidence. Power to wheels is not as reactive but this can be easily solved if you know where to tune it. The magical part of owning this ride is about unlocking its hidden potential while still being practical. The rest of the good stuffs have already been mentioned in other bros' reviews.... Read More

Been driving the 2009 model (G-line 7-seater), comes with 2WD & 4WD, for the past to 2 years. The verdict for the car is if u don't mind the money that u gonna pay for the petrol for the rest of the years that u gonna possess this car, it's a worthy buy. At the current fuel price, for S$100 (after discount) of petrol, it will take u 380-400km on Singapore's road (on 2WD). That works out to be about 10km/litre on urban/highway drive. The price of this car is cheaper than any other 7-seater SUVs and some MPVs. Power is good when u switch to the sequential gear shift on the gear stick. Overtaking is easy breezy even on high speed (100-130km/h). Comes with paddle shifter too which makes u feel like driving a F1 car :D. Never try it on off-road but on paved roads is definitely a very reliable & stable car. Handling is good though steering a little stiff when on low speed. So far have not experience any body roll (maybe have not a speed high enough to experience that :D). The height of the car is good too. I have a short wife and a short daughter (both about 1.40m). They board this car with ease. My wife also likes the driving position of this car cos when she's driving the car, she has a clear view of the car front. Can't complain much about the interior. Typical Japanese car design with all the plastic but good quality 1 though. Leather steering wheel (with steering wheel control buttons) and gear knob. It sits 5 adults comfortably with ample legroom in the 2nd row. However, the 3rd row legroom is only good enough for kids not above 1.5m i reckon. The 3rd row seat is also not recommended for long journey unless u have additional seat cushions. Overall, am quite satisfied with this car except for the FC.... Read More
