Exterior - What the Auto Press Says

The 2009 Outlander receives praise for its refined, modern exterior. It boasts two standout features: LED brake lights most commonly found on Lexus vehicles, and a sturdy fold-down tailgate that extends to cover the gap between the bumper and cargo area.

  • "As I alluded to earlier, the styling is quite modern and the vehicle's dimensions make it appear to be the well-balanced machine it is. The styling evokes the athleticism of a sport sedan and the sophistication of a premium SUV. LED tail lamp clusters give the Outlander a distinctive, high-tech appearance." -- Chicago Sun-Times
  • "Styling has always been a strength of Mitsubishi's and this vehicle is no exception." -- Fort Worth Star-Telegram
  • "For starters, the new Japan-built Outlander is handsome, decidedly dashing next to its predecessor." -- Motor Trend
