How does the 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander drive?
Our expert take on Mitsubishi Outlander drivability.
The Outlander has never really put the ‘Sport’ in ‘Sports Utility’, and the latest iteration doesn’t change that. However, it has a big-car feel on the road and is much more refined than its predecessor.
Despite the average outputs on paper and the Aspire's 1725kg kerb weight, the petrol and CVT combination does a decent job delivering smooth progress without blowing your socks off. This is a car that's best driven sedately.
Hammer it and the CVT will flare the revs, though there’s enough insulation that even under full throttle it's rarely ever loud’ It does lack the low-down shove of the turbocharged rivals becoming increasingly prevalent in the medium segment, for similar money.
In terms of the ride and handling, there’s an interesting combination at play. The steering is light and the handling a little lofty, while the ride compliance is also taut and busy over smaller imperfections.
The Outlander settles as the speed climbs and impresses with its general refinement, though the 20-inch wheels don’t offer the cushy ride that the rest of the dynamics might lead you to expect.
We were impressed with the overall drive thanks to its predictable steering and body control, inspiring confidence whether you’re tackling B-roads or carparks.
The Outlander’s driver assist suite may be significantly more advanced than before, but I found some features lacking given the 2021 launch timing.
Namely, there’s no semi-autonomous highway driving mode like you’ll find in many rivals, and the lane-keep assist is so lax you could basically drift into the next lane. You could argue this is fixed by paying attention 100 per cent of the time, but given the Outlander is popular amongst parents with crying babies, having a safety net can be the difference between a last-minute re-centre or a dangerous accident.
Otherwise the adaptive cruise and blind-spot monitoring systems are helpful inclusions, and are useful in day-to-day driving. The clear 360-degree camera and parking sensors make manoeuvring this 4710mm-long and 1852mm-wide family SUV that little bit easier.
All-wheel drive in the case of our test car inspires extra confidence in poor weather or over loose surfaces, with Mitsubishi’s trick S-AWC system that uses torque vectoring via braking to help improve handling and enhance the dynamic feel.

Logbook service is required 15,000km or 12 months
2024 Mitsubishi Outlander vs other SUV's to consider
The Outlander is one of the newest entrants to the mid-sized SUV segment, and has one of the largest interiors. It's also quite unique in offering seven seats; seven-seat rivals are limited to the Nissan X-Trail and Honda CR-V, and both cars are significantly older.
In five-seat guise, it's a more practical alternative to the Mazda CX-5 and Toyota RAV4. Those cars do have an edge on the Outlander when it comes to driving dynamics though, and both are available with more interesting engine options.
Should you buy the 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander
Is this the right car for you? Out experts buy or not guide.
The Outlander offers a lot of space and technology for the money, which has traditionally been a strong suit for the badge. It also stands out with the option of a seven-seat interior.
We’d argue the Aspire is the sweet spot in the range, though the $4000 jump to the Exceed brings desirable upgrades such as a panoramic sunroof, tri-zone climate control, Bose premium audio and memory them .
