New 2026 Mitsubishi Outlander SEL

Recent Arrival! 2026 Mitsubishi Outlander SEL Moonstone Gray/Black Roof. I found the new styling to be pretty slick and liked that it was slightly larger than other compact SUVs. The highlight here is the interior, it's what sold me. It's reminiscent of a luxury brand and its materials and styling. Super happy about this. Some say the engine is a bit underpowered, but for the average driver it feels very responsive and peppy, but do agree that at higher speeds it's a bit reluctant to get going for passing at freeway speeds. After buying the car I had to go on the road trip for work and was very happy with the 30.7 miles per gallon I got with cruise control set around 72 miles an hour on mostly flat highway. The adaptive cruise control made my 3-hour drive easy and pleasant. I was not bothered by things people complain about on the CVT transmission, though it can be a bit jerky at times unless you're smooth on the gas pedal. Third row seat is kind of a joke, but put the seats down and you get more cargo space and that's a win for me. Overall, I love the car. It handles great, gets decent gas mileage and feels much more luxurious than the price tag, even on my SE model. I'm a very happy first time Mitsubishi owner/driver. Great ride, "transformer vehicle!"
