New Mitsubishi Outlander 2020 pricing and specs detailed: Popular SUV now more expensive

Mitsubishi Australia has quietly increased pricing for most variants of its Outlander mid-size SUV.

Of the 16 Outlander variants on sale, 14 have jumped by $400 (see pricing table below), with a Mitsubishi Australia spokesperson telling CarsGuide the adjustments were made due to weaker exchange rates.

The only two Outlanders to avoid the price rise are the entry-level ES front-wheel-drive variants, which still cost $29,490 and $31,790 plus on-road costs in five- and seven-seat forms respectively.

The five-seat ES FWD is available with a 110kW/190Nm 2.0-litre petrol engine that’s exclusively mated to a six-speed manual transmission.

A 124kW/220Nm 2.4-litre is used by nine variants, with it mated to a continuously variable transmission (CVT) and available with the choice of FWD or all-wheel drive.

There is only one grade offered with a 110kW/360Nm 2.2-litre turbo-diesel engine, the AWD-only Exceed seven-seater ($47,190).

A plug-in hybrid powertrain is found in three aptly named PHEV AWD variants. It combines a 94kW/199Nm 2.4-litre petrol engine with two electric motors (front: 60kW/137Nm, rear: 70kW/195Nm). Its 13.8kWh lithium-ion battery provides 54km of electric-only driving range.
