I was looking at this a couple of days ago. It looks nice just not too crazy about the roof.

Sorry to say - I think it's ugly.

not a fan
- front end reminds me of kids smooshing their face in with their hands, saying "chubby bunny"
- tires are sipped backwards
- why do our vehicles have to keep getting so big?? it is a smaller crossover...not a full size suv

The Outlander is moving up in size to compete with the Mazda CX-9, Honda Pilot, Toyota Highlander.

This is exactly how good cars get ruined - two perfect examples are the Outlander and Cherokee.

I like it. It's consistent with the style that cars are going now, angular, sharp. I am bummed that the car is getting bigger. That's the whole reason I bought this car, didn't want a ginormous SUV. One less reasonably sized CUV in the mix. But it's clear, that's what the NA market wants.

"MT: Do you see Mitsubishi becoming a company that only builds crossovers in the future?

DS: I see it more focused on CUV. We’re talking about our next CUV now. We’re talking that we’ll take the Outlander and move it a little up, and I mean up in size, so it will become a little wider, a little longer, and then we’ll bring another car in between the Outlander Sport and the Outlander."

I think expanding their line to compete with the Market is the best move to keep Mitsubishi Alive in North America.
I could use something the size of a Pilot or CX-9 to move my family around. It would be awesome if the new Outlander could be the one. Mitsubishi provides the best bang for your dollar in a vehicle.
