The Mitsubishi Outlander has been redesigned, refreshed, and updated for the 2014 model year and features a couple of positive first impressions which should help make this crossover SUV a success. First off the new Outlander received a Safety Plus award from the IIHS. Secondly, the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander car seat up to 7-passengers featuring a 3rd row of seats. And thirdly, the Outlander has a base price of under $23k and comes with a 10-year/100k mile warranty. The GT model tested here starts at $27,795 and comes with Super All-Wheel Handling (AWD) and a V-6 engine.Research the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlanderhttp://www.autobytel.com/mitsubishi/outlander/2014/The styling up front is the new direction Mitsubishi is going. Gone are the days of the Darth Vader looking grille. The new grille shows Mitsubishi's new corporate face. There are strong character lines that run alongside the headlights down the front of the bumper and terminate in the lower front grille. Aside from the unique front end, the rest of the 2014 Outlander is pretty bland and uneventful. At least the 18-inch aluminum wheels are standard on the higher trim levels.Standard under the hood of the GT model is Mitsubishi's 3.0 liter V-6 MIVEC engine that makes 224 horsepower and 215 lb-ft of torque. The fuel economy ratings are 20 MPG in the city and 28 on the highway. The other engine option is a 2.4 liter 4-cylinder that makes 166 horsepower and 162 lb-ft. of torque while getting 25 MPG in the city and 31 MPG on the highway thanks mostly to the CVT transmission.On the inside the GT Touring Package includes leather seats, sunroof, navigation, Rockford-Fosgate sound system, and a number of other features. The 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander is fun to drive: the brake feel is excellent, the electric steering has a lot of communication on the road, but it just needs more power. The Outlander has a lot of exclusive features for its class. But for every positive there seems to be a negative when it comes to the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander.See More Car Videoshttp://www.autobytel.com/car-videos/Join Our Facebook Pagehttp://www.facebook.com/autobytel
