Mitsubishi at Frankfurt Motor Show

Bringing 80% of conquest customers to the Brand across Europe, it provides them with Mitsubishi Motors’ acknowledged expertise in 4-wheel drive technology dressed in a sharp envelope fit for 5+2 passengers (or 2 occupants and up to 1,691 l of cargo) all within a smaller footprint than comparable D-segment wagons.
At the occasion of the 62nd Frankfurt Motor Show, Outlander will widen its appeal to European customers with the introduction of two additional engines:
2.2 Di-D, Diesel common rail (1)*:
156 PS @ 4,000 rpm and 380 Nm @ 2,000 rpm,
All Wheel Control,
6-speed manual gearbox,
Launch: fourth quarter of 2007.
2.4 l MIVEC, Petrol (2)* :
170 PS @ 6,000 rpm and 232 Nm @ 4,100 rpm,
2-wheel drive or All Wheel Control (according to markets),
5-speed manual gearbox or stepped Sport Mode 6-speed CVT with optional paddle shift controls,
Launch: fourth quarter of 2007.
These two new “high power” engines will then complement the current 2.0 Di-D Diesel pump-jet (140 PS @ 4,000 rpm and 310 Nm @ 1,750 rpm) “mid power” power plant (3).
Further improvements for 2008 include (spec. according to markets):
New milled finish 18” alloy wheels (standard on Instyle)
Rain sensor and rear parking sensors (standard on Intense+ and Instyle)
Soft touch paint finish on dashboard
Rear view camera now available in combination with Mitsubishi Multi Communication System (Full-map touch screen Hard Disk Drive (HDD) Navigation with music server)
Leaving the role of authentic off-roader to the next generation Pajero, Outlander is a no-compromise solution for a different type of recreational vehicle.
Using the in-built adaptability of MMC’s all-new “Project Global” flexible platform it brings passenger car-like levels of active safety and driving pleasure, thanks to its All Wheel Control drive-train, 4-wheel independent suspension, high performance brakes and low centre of gravity. The latter is helped by an aluminium roof panel, using a technology tested with the Lancer Evolution IX.
