2013 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport Review

We test-drove the Mitsubishi 2013 Outlander Sport for one week in exchange for a review! No other monetary compensation took place and ALL thoughts and opinions associated with this review are 100% my own.

Um, who doesn't love practical family vehicles, right? If you're currently looking for a vehicle that's simple yet practical for a small-sized family — then look NO further than the 2013 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport. It's literally a practical car buyer's dream come true! It's stylish, it's sleek, and it's solid! The 2013 Outlander Sport is undoubtedly a durable vehicle, it's perfect for smaller families who're looking for something reliable to get them "to" and "from" all of their daily activities, like soccer practice. As for the styling, the 2013 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport is quite impressive with its shark-like grill and swanky wheels. So, if you're looking for an pleasurable and comforting riding experience, the 2013 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport definitely doesn't disappoint. The biggest drawback of the 2013 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport is there's not a tremendous amount of leg room, so if you have a LARGE family, like mine, you'd probably want to go with the 2013 Mitsubishi Outlander instead. That's just my two cents!

Superior Safety

Do you EVER forget to put on your seat-belt? Um, seriously who hasn't forgotten, right? With so much going on (family, work, OR errands), it can often-times slip your mind, especially when you're running late. We've all been there, right? I've been there (but it doesn't happen often). If you've forgotten to put on your seat-belt (we won't tell, promise!), there's no need to panic. If your seat-belt remains unfastened for longer than one minute, the warning light will come on and BLINK repeatedly and then the tone (buzzer) will sound intermittently. I know this shouldn't be a "WOW" factor, BUT have you seen the high cost of seat-belt tickets? They're freaking EXPENSIVE! So, I appreciate Mitsubishi for thinking about my life, safety and pocketbook.

Them darn keys, where are they? Um, I ask myself this everyday. Hey, I'm forgetful! With the Keyless Entry System (which I love SO much!) You can effortlessly lock (and unlock) your door, trunk and turn on the ignition switch, without having to whoop out your keys. Simply keep your key/s somewhere (safely tucked) in your purse, and the system will automatically sense the Smart Access key, without you even having to pull it out. How awesome, right?

 Rear Parking Assistant!

Um, who doesn't need a little help backing out, right? I know I sure do! I don't know how many times I rolled over an object (or two) when backing out of the driveway. It's ridiculous, really! Thanks to the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport, I NO longer have to worry about accidentally rolling over something, like my son's skateboard. Um, skateboards are expensive, right?

We LOVE it!! 

I'm LOVING the wheels! They're very nice, and I mean NICE!! They really add to the appeal and beauty of this vehicle. Other wondrous features of this vehicle include an amazing panoramic roof with mood lighting, heated outside mirrors, halogen fog lights with chrome accent, rain-sensing windshield wipers, 18-inch aluminum-alloy wheels, air conditioning with pollen filter, one-touch start/stop (OSS) engine switch, heated front seats, glove box with illumination and pen holder, rear privacy glass, 6-way manually adjustable driver’s seat, 710-Watt, Rockford-Fosgate audio system with 9 speakers including 10-inch dual-voice coil subwoofer with Punch control and much, much more.

Final Thoughts 

The 2013 Outlander Sport doesn't have a tremendous amount of POWER, especially when it comes to driving up steep hills. That's not necessarily a bad thing, unless you live near the mountains or something. Other than that, we really like the Outlander Sport. As with any vehicle review, it's impossible to cover every feature, so please forgive me if there's something I forgot to mention.

  6. It's a little thing but the pollen filter - great stuff! My husband suffers horribly from allergies, and right now in Texas they're really bad - we could use a filter like that in our vehicles!

  14. I like vehicles built to stand the toughness of not only conditions on the outside of a vehicle, but build tough on the interior as well.
