Mitsubishi Outlander SE & Outlander GSE revealed

Mitsubishi has announced two new models in the Outlander range

First up is the Mitsubishi Outlander 2.0 DI-D SE, which offers pretty decent spec level. Included are 18″ alloys, Privacy glass, Bluetooth, extra airbags and a third row of seats. Move up the the Mitsubishi Outlander 2.0 DI-D GSE and you can add leather and DVD.

Even though Mitsubishi has been doing 4x4s for ever with the Shogun, the Outlander is a different kettle of fish. Based on the Lancer’s underpinnings it is a much more road-focused 4×4 than its sibling. That’s not to say its just a soft-roader that can only manage muddy fields if pushed. It has proper, electronically controlled 4WD and a decent ground clearance, so it can do more than 95% of owners would ever ask. The engine is a VW sourced 2.0 litre diesel with 140bhp which – with its decent amount of torque – makes the Outlander reasonably brisk around town, and capable of towing an impressive load.

Prices are competitive at £20k for the SE and an extra £1.5k for the GSE.  You can also throw in 3 years servicing for just £295.
