Driving the Outlander is a pleasurable experience heightened by quick, responsive handling and highquality craftsmanship. The ride is also extremely quiet thanks to enhanced noise reduction measures that lower engine, road and wind noise. From generous cabin space and comfortable seating to quality materials and refined amenities, every detail contributes to your traveling joy.
Power the Outlander with your choice of three clean and efficient engines — the 2.0-liter MIVEC, 2.4-liter MIVEC or 3.0-liter V6 MIVEC. The 2.0 and 2.4-liter engines are extremely responsive and fuel efficient, while the high displacement V6 engine supplies supremely powerful acceleration even when carrying heavy loads or traveling up mountainsides.
The engine is mated with an advanced CVT that automatically adjusts in response to changing road and vehicle conditions to deliver smooth, swift acceleration whenever you demand it, as well as outstanding fuel efficiency beyond what conventional automatic transmissions provide. Fully pressing the pedal now generates powerful response with the automatic transmission’s step-up shift like exhilaration and reduced engine noise. For manual-like driving pleasure, you can also take advantage of the 6-speed Sports Mode and paddle shifters.
Electronically controlled 4WD offers incredible traction and stability even in challenging terrain by optimally combining with Active Stability Control [ASC]. The Drive Mode Selector lets you easily select the most appropriate drive mode when desired: 4WD ECO mode for maximum economy, 4WD AUTO mode for normal driving conditions, or 4WD LOCK mode for rough terrain.
New larger diameter front struts and rear shock absorbers help ensure ideal damping at all speeds.
Safety
Forward collision mitigation helps prevent a frontal collision or reduce damage if the collision becomes unavoidable. Responds to vehicles and pedestrians via camera and laser radar.
Adaptive cruise control maintains a selected distance between your vehicle and the car ahead via radar for greater safety and peace of mind. It reduces driver stress especially during traffic jams on highways.
Automatic high-beam switch to low beams when vehicles are detected ahead and automatically switch back to high beams so you don’t have to remove your hand from the steering wheel to switch the beams manually.
