Of all the face-lifted 2011 Mitsubishi Outlander, and it's interesting how it turns out the best. This is the first time, Mitsubishi offers to drive the front wheels instead of four-wheel drive, the price bringing it down to the very competitive under £ 23k, hoewel upholstery, and this is despite the well-equipped entry-level status.
How does it feel?
To the best of the new Outlander is far from the best in its class. Mitsubishi has a new 2.3-liter engine (not available on the Peugeot and Citroen variants) offer enough performance, but a combination of other awkward and unequal distribution of power all too often let you into a narrow band of torque. This means that by the end of frequent changing (and not with respect to notch a comfortable shift), better than in the other set-up car.

Ride and handling are also lower than the current class standards Mitsubishi SUV. Isolated, it's good - there's enough grip car with front wheel drive, a majority of people moving from a four-wheel drive happy, and there is an appeal in the modest nature, a good economy and a spacious interior with seven seats.
But there is much more torque to a stronger body than to ride in one of the obvious competitors, and although the ride quality is acceptable in most situations are rarely resolved at higher speeds, even on the highway surface.
Should I buy?
The Outlander is sadly one of these cars at a time, but it is recommended that the class has moved and the changes are not sufficient to bring him up to speed. His paper outweigh the benefits of real problems and with the competition rules of the Hyundai Santa Fe and Nissan Qashqai 2 is comparably priced competitors unfairly Outlander.
