 Until a week ago I had never driven a Mistsubishi, let alone own one.  After owning the 2017 Outlander SEL for a week, I think I’m a customer for life.  Seriously, ignore the so called expert reviews.  They point to things like acceleration and inadequacy of the engine and fuel economy.  What they don’t realize is that most people aren’t using this car to drag race with.  For the normal everyday family, this car can’t be beat.  It’s whisper quiet, gets amazing fuel economy, and drives smoother than any car or suv I have ever owned.  I don’t even know what side of the car the gas tank is on because I haven’t had to fill it up yet.  It’s easily the best bang for your buck.  It feels much more expensive than it is.  It has awesome features like awd, Apple CarPlay, heated seats, etc.  It’s also very nimble and fun to drive.  I would recommend this car to anyone.
