The 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander Fuses Heritage with Next-Gen Design


The next-generation Mitsubishi Outlander will debut in February 2021—that was just confirmed by the Japanese automaker as they also revealed the very first official sneak peek.

Developed under the ideal of the Japanese term “I-Fu-Do-Do”, which means authentic and majestic, the 2022 Outlander is said to demonstrate strength and quality from the inside out. The exterior design, first shown as the Engelberg Tourer Concept last year, will carry Mitsubishi’s next-generation styling.

Officially, Mitsubishi has yet to reveal any details, but it’s said to leverage its alliance with Nissan by adopting the all-new X-Trail / Rogue platform. It could also mean it’ll offer the very same normally-aspirated 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine when it debuts first for U.S., Canada, and Puerto Rico. The 2.4-liter PHEV powertrain is said to carry over unchanged.

“The Outlander is an iconic SUV for the company, so when we developed the next generation model, we took inspirations from our rich SUV heritage to realize a bold and confident styling with a solid stance that excites our customers,” said Seiji Watanabe, Division General Manager of Design (Head of Design), MMC. “The all-new Outlander is the first model epitomizing the new generation of Mitsubishi design and the frontrunner of our design strategy.”
