Here, we'll compare this versatile and value-packed ride to another popular option in this vehicle segment: the 2020 Toyota RAV4.

Features, Pricing & Value

• For the 2020 model year, the new Mitsubishi Outlander is now offered in six distinct trim levels, including the new SP or special edition model. Every version of the Outlander boasts new-for-2020 features, proving that Mitsubishi isn't resting on its laurels with this well-regarded sport-ute! The Outlander ES 2.4 base trim and every edition after it gets upgrades like redesigned second-row seating and HVAC controls, plus enhanced third-row seat comfort. There's even power driver lumbar support as standard.
• Toyota's 2020 RAV4 carries over mostly unchanged from the previous model year, save for the new TRD Off-Road model that's geared toward the few crossover SUV buyers who actually take their vehicles off-road, or who just like that all-terrain look. The new RAV4 also offers six trim levels, but they're each priced significantly higher than a corresponding or comparable 2020 Outlander.
• With its highly competitive pricing, distinct editions and impressive list of standard and available features, the 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander lineup outshines that of the pricier 2020 Toyota RAV4. Plus, you'll only find Mitsubishi's highly advanced Super All-Wheel Control (S-AWC) on one of these two crossover SUVs, and that's the versatile new Outlander!

Versatility & Performance

• Your search for an agile, affordable and versatile new CUV can end with the 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander. Why? Because it's the value-priced new SUV that comes standard with three rows of seating for up to seven occupants! Toyota's RAV4 can only be had with 5-passenger seating in two rows.
• One look at the Outlander and RAV4 models, and it's clear to see that the Mitsubishi is a longer vehicle. Even with its extensive 128 cubic feet of passenger volume compared to just 99 cubic feet in the Toyota, the Mitsubishi Outlander retains a sporty driving feel and impressive maneuverability.
• When you consider that the 2020 Outlander is the roomier of the two crossover SUVs and the only one that offers three-row seating, you may be surprised to learn that it's also lighter than the comparable 2020 Toyota RAV4. With the Outlander's up to 224 hp compared to just 203 hp in the RAV4, that extra power and lighter weight will go a long way. We encourage you to test drive these vehicles to experience the many perks of picking the Mitsubishi!

Factory Warranty Coverage

• Mitsubishi is known for its superb warranty coverage, and the 2020 Outlander benefits from this generous bumper-to-bumper and powertrain package. It's clear that the automaker stands behind its vehicles, as it provides 60 months or 60,000 miles of bumper-to-bumper warranty, whereas Toyota vehicles only come with 36 months or 36,000 miles of the same coverage.
• With a powertrain warranty of 120 months or 100,000 miles, every driver of the 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander will have the confidence and peace of mind to go the distance in this crossover SUV. Toyota's meager 60-month or 60,000-mile powertrain warranty applies to the 2020 RAV4 and leaves a lot to be desired, especially compared to the extensive coverage that Mitsubishi provides.
• Mitsubishi isn't done, though. The automaker provides every motorist with a full 60 months of roadside assistance with any brand-new Mitsubishi automobile, including the 2020 Outlander! Drivers who select a new Toyota like the 2020 RAV4 will have to settle for just 24 months of on-road assistance or pay extra to upgrade to a more extensive plan.
