In the product series of GAC Mitsubishi, perhaps Outlander is the strongest in terms of comprehensive strength, after all, this is a Mitsubishi global car, and it can indeed be reminiscent of the glory of Mitsubishi Pajero in that year. A few days ago, the new generation of Outlander made its debut in China, although such an appearance is limited to the shape, although it has not even been seen in the interior, but it can also make people think of it.
Mitsubishi Outlander's domestic debut was more like a design interpretation meeting, describing that its body size has become larger and the body of the vehicle has become more powerful. The vehicle's length, width and height dimensions are 4710 mm, 1862 mm and 1745 mm, and the wheelbase is 2706 mm, which is indeed longer than the previous generation's 2670 mm wheelbase. In short, Mitsubishi Outlander has become more imposing. Many details of the front face and tail are also a tribute to Pajero, hoping to arouse the feelings of everyone.
At the press conference, the core content of the car was limited to this. Manufacturers have not explicitly given powertrain or other more hardcore information, and perhaps in this regard, Mitsubishi Outlander will not change much, or rather, there is no need to change much.
At present, the power used by Mitsubishi Outlander has become a 166-horsepower in-line 4-cylinder 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine and a 192-horsepower 4-cylinder 2.4-liter naturally aspirated engine, and everyone has their own judgment on whether this engine is old or "skinny". At present, Mitsubishi Outlander uses a CVT gearbox, which may be another topic product. Take out the combination of self-priming engine + CVT, and some people will definitely say that Mitsubishi does not want to make progress.
In fact, it does not matter what kind of powertrain Mitsubishi Outlander uses, or whether the interior design will be older. This brand still has a certain mass base in second- and third-tier cities, if the pricing is reasonable, there will still be a part of the consumer group that can rely on Pajero's reputation to recognize the Mitsubishi brand, then the most important thing is the pricing. Considering the current fierceness of the SUV market, the starting price of the current Outlander of 159,800 yuan is still a bit high, how will the new model perform? Mitsubishi said it would go public within the year.
