Mitsubishi Outlander Sport

All Mitsubishi Vehicles

Model Generations

Latest Model

2015 Model Redesign Year

This aging small SUV is a shortened version of the previous-generation Outlander, but with less rear-seat room and cargo space. Despite the name, when it comes to driving it's not exactly a sporty SUV. Handling is mundane, and acceleration is just adequate. In addition to the 2.0-liter engine, a more powerful 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine is available. The Sport's choppy ride and very noisy cabin further detract from the driving experience. Still, it has a commanding driving position, as well as passenger and cargo versatility.

All Outlander Sports come with standard all wheel drive. Top-trim Outlander Sports are priced like many larger, more capable SUVs. Highway-speed AEB is not available, and BSW and RCTW are optional.

2015-Present

2015 Model Redesign Year

A more powerful 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine arrived for 2015 for this shortened version of the Outlander SUV. It has reduced rear-seat and cargo space. Despite the name, it's not exactly a sporty SUV to drive. Handling isn't that nimble, and acceleration from the 148-hp, 2.0-liter engine is just adequate. The Sport's choppy ride and very noisy cabin further undermine the driving experience. Still, it has a commanding seating position and passenger and cargo versatility.

Top-trim all-wheel-drive versions can get expensive enough that the Outlander Sport starts to compete with better SUVs. Updates for 2020 included Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, and added advanced safety equipment. For 2023, AWD became standard. Updates for the 2025 model year included standard Rear Seat Alert.

2011-2014

2011 Model Redesign Year

The Outlander Sport is a chopped version of the small Outlander SUV, with reduced rear-seat and cargo space. Despite the suffix, this is not a fun car to drive. It handles less nimbly than the larger Outlander, and acceleration from the 148-hp, 2.0-liter engine is adequate at best. A choppy ride and a very noisy cabin further undermine the experience. Still, it retains the high seating position and some of the passenger-and-cargo versatility of its larger brand-mate. All-wheel drive comes only with the top-trim version, where the Outlander Sport poorly competes price-wise with sportier and roomier SUVs.
