What Kind of Engines does the 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander Have?
The Base Model Engine
The lowest trim levels of the Outlander are equipped with a 2.4L inline 4-cylinder engine. This option provides its driver with a respectable 166 horsepower that is matched almost exactly by its 162 lb-ft of Torque. Fuel efficiency is better with this option, as is expected with smaller powertrains. This powertrain also includes a continuously variable transmission (CVT). For those who don’t want a CVT or who just need more power, consider the upgraded engine option.
The Upgraded Engine
If the base model engine doesn’t sound like enough power for you, try the 3.0L V6 available on the SE S-AWC, SEL S-AWC, LTD. ED. S-AWC and the GT S-AWC trims. This engine generates up to 224 horsepower and 215 lb-ft of Torque for those who want to get the most out of their Outlander that they can. That makes the SE S-AWC and above the obvious choice for those that want to travel off the roads or pull trailers. Also, you get a 6-speed automatic transmission for a more traditional, hands-on driving feel.
Which Trim Level of the 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander Should I Pick?
Even if you know the powertrain you want, it might still be hard to decide on one trim. If you are going for fuel economy above all else, the fanciest trim with the base engine is the EX-L S-AWC. The ES S-AWC and the EX S-AWC are both acceptable, but the EX-L S-AWC is where you will find the best features. Ignoring powertrains, the SE S-AWC is the middle trim overall, making it a great option for the undecided. The GT S-AWC supplies its driver with the best features of all, but if the starting MSRP is just a little too rich for your blood, try the SEL S-AWC or stick with the SE S-AWC mentioned before.
