The Outlander Sport will come with a 2.0-liter, 148 horsepower, and 4-cylinder MIVEC engine. Its styling draws information from Mitsubishi's Lancer sport and is part of part of Mitsubishi's plan to reposition itself as a maker of smaller and more efficient cars. The vehicle is expected to get fuel economy above 30 miles per gallon on the highway and produce low emissions. To save weight, the Outlander Sport comes with recycled plastic front fenders and thinner high-strength steel in the tailgate, doors, and hood.
However, the 2009 XLS had a 220 horsepower V6 engine, so only a small increase in speed is available between the two different editions. Also, the 2009 Outlander had an EPA estimated 20-25 miles per gallon average, depending on the model.
Combined with the other new technologies in the 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander, the engine options provide performance and durability coupled with efficiency.
