Interior - What the Auto Press Says

The interior of the 2010 Mitsubishi Endeavor is spacious, but falls short because it lacks a third-row seat and has some low-grade materials.

  • "Front headroom is good, even in models equipped with a sunroof. The seats are softly cushioned, with only modest bolstering and mediocre support. Backseat space is roomy at the sides and tolerable in the center. Controls are clear and the gauges are easy to read." -- Cars.com
  • "The dash is still pretty funky, though, and its cool blue lighting should appeal to those looking for more visual excitement than many vehicles in this utilitarian class provide. Materials quality could be better, however, as there's more low-grade hard plastic than you'll find in a Nissan Murano or Hyundai Santa Fe." -- Edmunds

Seating

The seats and driving positions of the Mitsubishi Endeavor win praise from reviewers. Though the Endeavor doesn't offer a third row, its second row is particularly spacious.

  • "The seats are flat but comfortable, legroom is good ... and there are enough 12-volt outlets to power a cell phone, a computer, an Xbox, and a margarita blender." -- Car and Driver
  • Even the shortest drivers will find they have not only a commanding view of the road, but also good visibility all the way around." -- Kelley Blue Book
  • "Second-row accommodations are particularly generous with class-leading legroom and more than enough head- and shoulder room to keep three passengers happy." -- Edmunds
  • "The seats are softly cushioned, with only modest bolstering and mediocre support. Backseat space is roomy at the sides and tolerable in the center." -- Cars.com

Interior Features

The base SE model includes air conditioning, power windows, power locks and mirrors, cruise control, an eight-way manually adjustable driver's seat and a six-speaker 140-watt CD audio system. Step up to the LS, and you'll add heated leather seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shifter, a color LCD multi-function display, a 10-way power adjustable driver's seat, and a premium stereo.

  • "Most cabin trim is appropriate for the price, though the LS's seat cloth looks unattractively utilitarian. The SE's leather upholstery feels upscale, though it's only available as part of pricey option packages." -- Consumer Guide
  • "The Endeavor's neat blue dash lighting has a hip, youthful appeal." -- Kelley Blue Book

Cargo

The Endeavor's maximum cargo capacity is 76.4 cubic feet --a number that isn't quite as high as some reviewers would prefer.

  • "Although larger in most dimensions than its competitors, its cargo capacity is smaller." -- Car and Driver
  • "The seat folds in a 60/40 split with just one latch to reveal a nearly flat, unobstructed load floor. Maximum cargo capacity, however, is just 76.4 cubic feet, considerably less than the Honda Pilot's or Ford Explorer's."-- Edmunds
  • "On SE models, an available flip-up glass rear window makes it easy to access the cargo area and, with the rear seats folded, the Endeavor can swallow quite a few mulch bags." -- Kelley Blue Book
