Mitsubishi Outlander in the new body: pros and cons. Mitsubishi Outlander III - Description of the model Active safety and suspension

18.01.2017

It has a controversial design, but, according to the manufacturer, at the moment, the car has a reference appearance as for the city crossover. Exterior appearance Auto divided fans of this model into two camps: one it seems ugly and boring, and the other is modern and fresh. Despite this, the car remains popular in the market and occupies high places in the rankings of the best-selling cars in its class. Today on secondary market You can find a large number of offers for the sale. used Mitsubishi Outlander 3But for what reason the owners will break up so quickly with their car, we will try to find out.

A bit of history:

The story of Mitsubishi Outlander began in 2001 and lasts for 16 years. The second generation appeared on the market in 2005 and the design reminded Mitsubishi LancerSuch similarity has been favorably affected by car sales. Debut Mitsubishi Outlander 3 generations held in 2012 at the international auto show in Geneva. For six months before the official presentation of Mitsubishi, the third generation outlander, the president of the company puzzled the world community with a statement that the first foreign country, in which the sale of new items start, will Russia. The overwhelming majority of specialists were firmly convinced that this generation would be created in the image and likeness of the concept, which was presented to review the broad public at the Tokyo Auto Show in 2009. When developing the third-generation design, outlander developers almost completely abandoned Mitsubishi brand stylistics " Jet Fighter."Which in recent years has become a business card of most popular models of the Japanese brand.

Such a decision chief designer Misubisci explained that aggressive style remains prerogative passenger cars, And serious cars can not afford such youth frivolity. The new car design, compared with the second generation of the model, looks less aggressive and deprived of any excesses. Build a car is carried out in Japan, the Netherlands, Thailand, India and Russia. In 2012, a hybrid version of the car was also presented at the auto show in Paris. Outlander phev" In 2014, Mitsubishi's management announced a restyled version of the model. The overwhelming part of the changes touched the appearance of the machine, mainly its front part, also, there were minor changes and specifications.

Advantages and disadvantages of Mitsubishi Outlander 3 with mileage

Traditionally, for Japanese cars, paints are quite weak, therefore, chips and scratches on the body are a common phenomenon. Body iron, in principle, of good quality and, if the car has not been restored after serious accidents, there should be no problems with corrosion resistance. In places of chola, paint after a while, the metal can start oxidize, but, as a rule, it does not lead to serious consequences, nevertheless, with restoration of paintwork, it is better not to delay. It is not famous for its reliability and windshield (chip and even cracks may appear from a small pebble). By electrician, the owners are numbered on the electrician control unit - the dipped turns on the low light and the engine cooling radiator fans are constantly spinning. The problem is floating, it is possible to eliminate it only by pulling out the fuse.

Engines

Completed with the following power units: 2.0 (163 hp), 2.4 (167 hp) and 3.0 (230 hp)Also, a hybrid version with a motor is available for this model. 2.0 (118 hp). In European markets can be found and diesel versions car. All the motors are a bit defined and changed the control program, thanks to this, they disband the 92nd gasoline without any problems, only the most powerful motor became the exception. Also, these changes have a favorably affected fuel consumption, so, for example, engines 2.0 and 2.4 average flow The city is 10-11 liters per 100 km. Motors 2.0 and 2.4 are equipped with a chain drive GRM, But the strap is installed on the three-liter motor. According to the regulations, the belt needs to be changed every 90,000 km, but already at 70,000 miles of mileage you need to closely monitor its condition. The chain is quite reliable and, provided that the maintenance is properly maintained, it is capable of listening to 300,000 km, but here is the cost of its replacement - it may be unpleasant to surprise.

If we talk about the reliability of the power units in general, then there were no significant flaws in them yet. Perhaps negative statistics are not yet because most cars did not even drive even 100,000 km. Of minor troubles, you can allocate: the loss of tightness of the cooling radiator ( in most cases, the lack of warranty), unstable work At XX on some copies, as well as vibration in the body. Often, even on a car with a slight mileage, a generator squeak appears ( for maximum load ). Motor service interval 15000 km, but many experts assure that it is very big, and recommend changing the oil and filter at least once every 8-10 thousand km.

Transmission

Completed with three types of gearboxes - stepless variation CVT from Jatco 7, six-speed automatic and mechanics ( installed only for diesel versions). Automatic transmission very demanding about quality lubricants and service interval ( no less often than every 60000 km). If you fulfill these requirements, the transmission can serve without repairing 300-350 thousand km. The variator is quite a capricient, and unfortunately will not be able to please their owners for a long time Services ( his resource does not exceed 200000 km), and the replacement will cost about 5000 USD. Therefore, from buying a car with such a transmission in second hands is better to refuse, especially if the machine mileage is more than 80,000 km. The first sign of the malfunction of the variator will serve a distinct metal knock at acceleration, and on high revolutions The car is badly accelerated. Also, it is necessary to check the color of the oil, greenish color - oil changed recently if the oil has changed a long time ago, its color will be brown.

The disadvantages of this transmission include rapid overheating at a frequent movement in traffic jams, slip and at speeds above 120 km / hour. On cars released after 2014, an additional radiator began to install, it improved the situation slightly, but the problem completely - did not solve. The four-wheel drive is connected, and is activated using a multi-disc clutch when the front wheels slip. The coupling is maintenanceable, but in the gearbox, it is necessary to change the oil and the filter times in 100-120 thousand km. The system of the full drive is generally reliable, but is very afraid of frequent overheating, therefore, consider this car for permanent halves on off-road. To check the clutch status, you must enable four-wheel drive ( AUTO or LOCK.), Then, slowly and smoothly make several turns of 360 degrees. If there is a characteristic crunch, screech, clang or other outsiders, from buying such a car it is better to refuse.

Disadvantages of Mitsubishi Pendant Outlander 3

Like the previous generation, Mitsubissi Outlander 3. equipped with a fully independent suspension: in front - MacPhersonBehind - multi-pharmacyAt the same time, the suspension settings were changed. As for the reliability of the chassis, most of its details are not famous for their endurance. Most complaints cause rubber suspension elements ( shock absorbers, silent blocks, stabilizer bushings) And the problem is not in their quality, but in the fact that they are very poorly carrying the impact of salts and reagents that the roads are generously sprinkled. Traditionally, for modern cars, long live stabilizer racks ( up to 40,000 km). Rear shock absorbers, with careful operation, are able to stop 50-60 thousand km, the front slightly longer - 70-80 thousand km. The remaining suspension elements, on average, live to 80-100 thousand km. Brake pads walk 30-40 thousand km, discs - 60-70 thousand km. When replacing the pads, it is necessary to lubricate the guides of the calipers, otherwise, with time, the brakes will begin to establish.

Salon

Compared to the predecessors, the salon began to look more modern, but the quality of finishing materials, unfortunately, remained at the same low level. As a result, foreign sneakers and knocks do the owners of even practically new cars. Do not famous new Outlender and good noise insulation. On most copies, over time, on the ceiling ( in the area of \u200b\u200bPlafon) Will begins to gather moisture. As for electrical equipment, at the moment, any serious problems It was not identified. The only thing that many owners complain about, so it is on a weak blowing of the glasses.

Outcome:

Generally, reliable car, with a good off-road potential, but, nevertheless, consider this car for permanent shootings on off-road - not worth it.

Advantages:

  • Spacious interior.
  • Comfortable suspension.
  • Four-wheel drive.

Disadvantages:

  • Weak paintwork.
  • A small resource of the variator.
  • Hardening salon.

2,0- and 2,4-liter engines Mitsubishi Outlander. Power, respectively, 146 and 167 liters. from. Quietly "digest" 92th gasoline. But a three-liter V6 unit with a capacity of 230 liters. from. Only the 95th is required. All crossover motors belong to the MIVEC family and are installed on many other models of Mitsubishi. In particular, a similar three-liter engine worries under the hood of one of the versions sUV PAJERO.. Transmissions on cars with 2.0 and 2.4 liters - variators with six virtual transmissions, a six-band "automatic" is used on the three-liter version. Out of ten versions of the car presented in our market, only two have front-wheel drive, the rest is full.

Perhaps it is only worth aware of the non-ideal course stability of a new "outlander" on the speed direct. The highways around Peter are good and even very good, but places there are asphalt gates, in which our crossover requires infringement. He is sensitive to the gusts of the side wind - we were noted when we moved along the dam, crossing the Finnish Bay. Deep night here is free, there are only rare wagons. Taking advantage of this, we decided to disperse a three-liter car to maximum speed. The first "honeycomb" three-liter vehicle was reached for 8 with a small second, as indicated in passport data. Approximately the same time occupied overclocking from the steady speed of 80 km / h to 120. At high speeds of the "voice" of the engine became sophisticated, but in general, the insulation of the cabin, I would praise (colleagues journalists who participated in the test drive, seem to be underestimated her). Wind noise was heard only at speeds above 170 km / h.

Mitsubishi Outlander is a car that is particularly popular with Russian motorists. The second generation of this crossover (with the "XL" prefix in the name) literally conquered everyone with his sporty style, uncontrollable zeal on the roads and unpretentiousness in operation ... But there is nothing eternal in this world and it's time to significantly update the "Hit-Hit Three Diamonds" - such It's time for the third way mitsubishi generations Outlander (for the first time he "lit up" at the international auto show back in 2011, and in the "serial execution" was presented at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show).

Already in 2014, the "third outlander" was subjected to an easy restyling - the main part of the change is concentrated in the front of the car (which is very clearly via the photo).

And also: the form of the rear bumper and "Figure" 18 "changed slightly wheel disks, Wheel arches appeared, and rear lights Engaged LED technology ... In addition, the suspension and noise insulation were improved, and the variator cooling system was also updated.

In general, it can be said that the appearance of the Mitsubishi Outlander of the third generation (in comparison with the second), of course changed, but not so much so that it could not be recognized as "familiar features" ...

The body contours remained the same, actually as its dimensions (changed only on a part of centimeters): the length of the crossover is now 4,655 mm (the increase of + 15 mm), the width remained unchanged - 1,800 mm, and the height "kicked up" - to the mark in 1 680 mm (- 40 mm), while clearance amounted to 215 mm.

Minor change of inclination windshieldAlso, more streamlined feed contours, allowed 7% to improve the aerodynamic indicators of the car, and the application in the manufacture of elements of the body of a larger amount of light high strength steel led to a decrease in the total mass of the updated crossover almost 100 kg.

The greatest changes of the appearance are visible in the front of the Mitsubishi Outlander 3-Generation, where the designers sent a large "mouth" of the radiator lattices - to change the small and compact decorative "lattice", which is located a massive bumper with a large oblong air intake. The lower corners of the bumper are crowned with convex "eyes" of fog lamps, and at the top there is a stylish xenon optics Super-HID "WIDE VISION" of the unique multifaceted form.

The side of the car has become smoother, lost the volumetric wheeled arches, but it turned out normal rear rack With the right slope.

The contours of the back of Mitsubishi Outlander of the 3rd generation "are built around the trunk cover" - as if shelters with a bumper and cutting with a stylish contrasting strip connecting the lanterns. By the way, the back door, finally, received an electric drive (what the numerous "Outlander" fans persistently asked about so long and persistently).

Interior of the cabin at the new generation of this japanese crossover It was redesigned almost completely, only the front seats remained unchanged, and some elements of the trim.

The front panel has become more functional, the ergonomics of all controls has changed in the direction of improvement. The instrument board acquired a color display of the on-board computer, the informativeness of the speedometer and the tachometer improved.

Interior decoration materials in the Third Outlander Japanese designers replaced with soft plastic - in basic configurationAnd skin - in expensive equipment of the car.

In general, the novelty interior became more attractive, modern and convenient.

As an option, it was possible to install the third row of seats, and the geometry of the rear armchairs changed, which made it possible to increase the volume luggage compartment up to 541 liters.

Specifications. IN Russia Mitsubishi. Outlander III. Initially, it was offered only two four-cylinder gasoline engines with a volume of 2.0 and 2.4 liters, but from May 2013 to them "joined" 3.0-liter force aggregate:

  • A two-liter power unit has an inline layout of cylinders and is able to develop up to 146 hp. Maximum power at 196 N of torque. The upper power limit is achieved by 6000 rpm, and the peak of the torque falls at 4200 rpm.
  • The second engine has the same ran arrangement of cylinders and, with a 2.4 liter volume, its maximum power is increased to 167 hp, developed by about 6000 rpm. The torque grew to the mark of 222 N M, and its peak is achieved at 4100 rpm.
  • Third - Three-liter V6 with maximum power 230 hp (6250 rpm) and torque 292 N m at 3750 rpm.

In fact, the "Outlander" of the 3rd generation is set slightly improved engines from the second generation crossover. From the cardinal improvements, the use of an even easier aluminum unit and the installation of the catalyst in the exhaust manifold should be selected, which made it possible to improve exhaust ecology indicators with a minor power loss. The decision to use old engines is quite justified, since these power units have already proven themselves in russian conditions operation and do not cause complaints from owners of second-generation cars.

All power units are equipped with an electronic gas distribution phase control system and valve lifting height (MIVEC), as well as a fuel injection system, which ensures the best acceleration dynamics and maximum use of the engine efficiency.

As a gearbox for the "first two" options applies only safety variator Invecs III, for the "tri-liter" - 6-speed "automatic", but the "mechanics" is not provided even in the future.

With two-liter engine Mitsubishi. Outlander 3 will be able to accelerate to the maximum 185 km / h, while acceleration until the first hundred spending about 12 seconds. The average fuel consumption "DVILs" will not exceed 8 liters per 100 km. The engine is more powerful (2.4 liters) will be able to disperse updated crossover Already up to 195 km / h, spending only 10.5 seconds for overclocking up to 100 km / h. Accordingly, the average consumption will increase to 9 liters. Well, the most dynamic, of course, the 3.0-liter power unit - the "first hundred" is gaining in 8.7 seconds, and maximum speed It is 205 km / h, its average consumption of 9-10 liters per 100 km of way.
By the way - about the fuel: two "younger" motor are not picky in this regard - it can be used to "eat" the gasoline of the AI92 brand, but for a three-liter manufacturer recommends not lower than Ai95.

According to official data of the manufacturer, over time russian market A hybrid version may appear crossover Mitsubishi. Outlander III, on which the PHEV power supply will be used, consisting of 94-strong gasoline engine and two electric motors of 82 hp everyone. Consumption hybrid engine There will be no more than 2 liters per 100 km, and the recharging of the batteries will be possible from the usual power grid.

Unfortunately, officially for Russia is not provided diesel engineBut here to the countries of Europe diesel Mitsubishi Outlander will be supplied. This version The car has on board a 150-strong diesel installation with a volume of 2.2 liters with a very low degree of compression (14.9: 1) and high performance indicators.

Suspension for Mitsubishi Outlander 3 generations also did not receive cardinal changes. McPherson Types remained in front, but with new springs and new location of the top supports. Rear independent multi-dimensional suspension Subject to minor adjustment and replacement of shock absorbers. All the changes made, according to the developers, are aimed at improving the resistance of the car on the road and mitigate the reaction to various irregularities of the road canvase. And we must admit that with its task, the engineers coped completely - the "third Outlander" really became softer to react to the bumps and pits, much morestable behaves with the passage of turns and got rid of steep body rolls.

Mitsubishi Outlander III can be supplied as a front-wheel-drive modification, so in the all-wheel drive, characterized by the intellectual AWC full drive system (All-Wheel Control). Connecting the rear wheels is implemented by means of an electromagnetic clutch, the operation of which can be controlled by one touch of the "4WD" button on the central console. A total of three full drive modes are provided: ECO, AUTO and LOCK. In the first case rear wheels Connected only during the front of the front, the second mode allows the rear wheels to turn on significantly more often, for example during a sharp touch from the place, and the third mode activates the constant four-wheel drive. The Mitsubishi Motors is called "New" to Mitsubishi Motors, but its main difference from the same is that the Haldex coupling of the 4th - as a result, the maximum transmitted torque increased by 10%, and everything else - work Electronics.

In addition to the optional full drive, the "Outlander" of the third generation in its regular equipment supplied with electric power steering, ABS system, brake force distribution system between brake discs, depending on the load on the wheels and dynamic system Currency stability.

Package and prices. On the Russian market, the third generation of the crossover Mitsubishi Outlander 2014-2015 is represented immediately in six options for configuration: "Inform", "Invite", "Intense", "InStyle", in the maximum "Ultimate" and a special "SPORT".

Basic front-wheel drive grade "Inform" with a 2.0 liter engine is equipped with an on-board computer, climate control, sensory multimedia system with 6 speakers, heated rear glass and a salon of soft plastic. The cost of the machine in the initial configuration is 1,189,000 rubles.
In more expensive versions there appears: a full electric car, heated seats, light and rain sensors, as well as other optional equipment. In the maximum "Ultimate-configuration" to all of the above, leather interior trim, side and front airbags, start-stop system, navigator and even rear-view camera are added. The price in the richest configuration is about 1,819,990 rubles.

The advantages and disadvantages of Mitsubishi Outlander 2018-2019 in the new body identified on the basis of feedback real owners. More detailed pros and cons Mitsubishi Outlander 3 with mechanics, automatic, variator, front and fully drive 4x4 can be found from the stories below:

Ownership reviews

Operating: High Sound Motor, compared to dorestayling, but still noisy. Also, the suspension was also softer, no rolls, but there is a feeling that there is no feed, but now it will rearrange.

I did not expect, but the landing in the driver's seat has changed, just added a couple of lines on the pillow, but it became cramped, (my height is 185 mm, the weight is 105 kg), and the back has become uncomfortable.

I was pleased with the feedback on the gas pedal, slightly pressed and you already go fast, even the routing mode does not bother.

Review O. new Mitsubishi. Outlander 3.0 AWD AT 2017 GV

Video review: problems with variator

Well managed. Elastic and at the same time comfortable suspension. Does not fall in turns like american cars, as well as Lexas and Toyota, which I was difficult for me to manage.

Forecasting. This is also part of the control. The engine, a box and suspension are very smoothly balanced and behave like one organism, which allows you to calculate how the car behaves in one way or another.

Clever. The car itself accelerates and slows down, does not lose sight of the car from sight, with the exception of serpentines. On the cruise control determines the degree of rotation and slows down, then dials again.

Good, high-quality assembly. Ideally fit the elements of the car, in comparison with the Ford, which went the last time.

Of the minuses, a thin layer of paint on the body, as well as the scratched plastic in the cabin, to which many sin. In addition, under negative temperatures, the roaring housing is fusing on the uneven road. I think the silicone drop.

Review about Mitsubishi Outlander 3.0 (236 hp) with automatic and full-wheel drive 2016 GV

Possess a car for 6 months. Good speaker, good shumka at maximum speed, consumption pleases: in the city 10-13, the track 8.0 speed is 120 km / h (AI-92).

While all the options work on perfectly. The car is very warm, quickly warming up. The design of the crossover as outside and inside the beautiful, pleases the eye. I live in the private sector, the roads of the winter never cleaned, the permeability of the class.

But, even though there is heating windshield, and on the brushes in bad weather it is formed.

Victor Vilkov, goes to Mitsubishi Outlander 2.4 (167 hp) at 2015

My impressions from Mitsubishi Outlander 3: Very quiet, in urban speeds almost silent, you can say a whisper. In measure soft suspension: The 18th wheels on the 55th profile make their contribution. On the track feels a kola, but not critical. The steering wheel is not cotton, but not heavy - for parking the most. The radius of the turn is small for such dimensions, in the courtyards it is conveniently unfolded.

Ergonomics, both the driver and passengers are excellent, the trunk is big. I especially like the box under the floor - all the little things fit in it and stopped riding the trunk. The drive's electric drive is a pleasant, but not the necessary thing, for the winter, the husband said to turn off with the electric folding mirrors so that the motors do not go.

Julia Moroz, review about Mitsubishi Outlander 2.4 (167 hp) on the machine 2015

Where can one buy?

While, of course, everything is fine: the machine is soft, spacious interior, a huge trunk, steady on the road. While I am delighted, even despite some flaws in the cabin. Headlights are cool, the light themselves regulate.

But the audio system is terrible. If you turn on half the volume, it is already starting to rattle the right passenger door from the vibration of the column. Radio: Memory for 12 radio stations - shame. The phone worked on the speakerphone exactly 2 weeks, and now, as soon as the incoming call is going, it hangs everything: it does not work speakerphonenor a phone. Have to turn off bluetooth.

The appearance of the front panel, in my opinion, spoiled: the buttons of the emergency and another 2 warning could be hidden somewhere in another place.


In the domestic market, Mitsubishi Outlander is presented with configurations, Invite, Intense, Instyle and Ultimate. In very simple version Outlander has electric windows and mirrors, climate control, immobilizer. Starting with the configuration INVITE added on-board computer, CD player with 6 speakers, heating side mirrors and front seats. In the upper grades, the crossover is very well packaged: dual-zone climate control, color display of the route computer and navigation system, electric drive rear door, leather interior, steering wheel with audio system control buttons and cruise control, as well as steering gearboxes gearboxes, organizer in the trunk and protective mesh, heated wipers, 18-inch alloy wheels, rear view camera, etc. Special series Mitsubishi Outlander Samurai, released on the occasion of a 10-year anniversary since the start of sales of a popular SUV in Russia, distinguishes new design Front, as well as chrome nameplates with a limited series name - Samurai.

Given that Outlander III is adapted for Russia, he left the motors of the Old Series B, while for Japan the crossover received installations of the J. Volume (2.0 and 2.4 liters) the same, the power differs in the "horses" (for Russian modifications Power - 146 and 167 hp, respectively), the difference is in environmental settings. Especially for some markets, including the Russian, Outlander left a three-liter V6 with a capacity of 230 hp Together with it there is a 6-speed ACP, the variator is aggregated with other motors. All engines enter into MIVEC technology - electronic system Phase control of gas distribution and lifting height of valve. This system constantly changes the gas distribution phases, providing sufficient power and exceptional fuel efficiency of Mitsubishi motors.

In the manufacture of the body, the share of high-strength steels, which has become easier, is enlarged. In the front "Macmpsone" - new springs and places of attachment of the upper supports. In the rear "multi-block" - other longitudinal levers and other characteristics of shock absorbers with springs. There is an electric power steering. Considering the size of the wheelbase that remains unchanged, the minimum rotation radius has not changed - it is 5.3 m. The car is still offered not only in the all-wheel drive version, but also with the front-wheel drive, it's true only in the configuration with the base 2-liter motor.

In the basic configuration Mitsubishi Outlander there are front pillows, seat belts, attachments for children's seats ISOFIX, aBS systems and EBD. In more expensive modifications, this list is expanded by side pillows and security curtains, help systems emergency braking, coursework, anti-slip system. In addition, compared with the previous generation, the overall list of Safety systems Outlander was supplemented by a driver's knee pillow and a start-up system on a lift (HHC). The car can be equipped with Super Wide HID Middle Light with xenon lamps and automatic corrector. In general, the results of crash tests were improved: according to the EURO NCAP Outlander technique earned higher estimates in all indicators and received five stars out of five.
