Mitsubishi Outlander 2020

FROM
$19,250

The 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander range of configurations is currently priced from $14,995.

Our most recent review of the 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander resulted in a score of 6.9 out of 10 for that particular example.

Carsguide Contributing journalist Peter Anderson had this to say at the time: We're talking honest, down-to-Earth transport here, and a car that has stood the test of time on the reliability front. Sure, you won't turn a lot of heads, but you also won't spend your life at the dealership for repairs, either. Besides, it's not only one of the cheapest ways to move seven people, but also one of the most affordable plug-in hybrids on the market.

Mitsubishi Outlander 2020 FAQs

2004 Mitsubishi Outlander remote no longer synced

Ultimately, you may have to resort to a locksmith to have the key fob re-synced with the car. But before you do that, try this: Mitsubishis of this era often have a key fob with a lock and unlock button. While sitting in the car (or standing next to it) push both lock and unlock buttons down together. Hold them down until you see the fob’s LED flash three times. Then, push the unlock button for one flash of the LED. The LED should then flash another two times and you’re all set. The lock and unlock buttons should now work.

It may not work with all cars, but it’s definitely worth a try. If it doesn’t, you probably have a Mitsubishi model where syncing has to take place via the OBD (On-Board Diagnostics) plug which requires a bit more know-how and the correct plug tools. That’s where your friendly locksmith or auto electrician comes in.

What can I drive on red P-Plates?

The NSW government website advises that you must not drive a high performance car on red P-Plates. But that’s hardly the case for a 2007 Outlander, so you should be fine. The catch is that you must also only drive cars that feature the type of transmission you took your test on. So, if you took your test in an automatic or clutchless manual car, then the Outlander you drive unsupervised must have the same transmission type, and not have a conventional manual with a clutch pedal.

Should I buy a Nissan X-Trail or a Mitsubishi Outlander?

This issue will always come down to the documented service history that each car comes with. A switched-on previous owner will not only have serviced the vehicle by the book, but will also have kept the relevant receipts as proof of this crucial work being done. We'd always choose the vehicle with a big wad of service receipts over a similar car with no (or less) evidence of scheduled maintenance.

Beyond that, the Nissan clearly has almost 50,000 fewer kilometres on its odometer, so all things being equal it probably nudges ahead at that point. In either case, the CVT transmission fitted to these cars is likely to be the major source of mechanical grief down the track. Both brands' CVT transmissions have been known to give trouble. If that bothers you, then perhaps the one to buy is the Outlander AWD with the turbo-diesel engine option. In that guise, the vehicle has a conventional automatic transmission rather than a CVT.
