On the road : Mitsubishi Outlander 2010 2.2 DiD TC-SST
Pending the launch of the new ASX, the small crossover star of the Geneva Motor Show and a candidate for best-seller in the Mitsubishi range from next summer, the house of the three diamonds reorganizes the list of his 4x4. The Pajero will adjust the make-up and pick up the L 200 is allowed to turn a restyling of mid-career. More important, however, is what happens to the Outlander, which gives a facelift and is repositioned upward in the market, to make room for the newcomer, which will ideally be godmother.
Call Jet Fighter, provides a strong family feeling with the Colt and the Lancer, especially with the outdoor types of family, the Evo X. At the bottom of the muzzle check now a band with metallic finish, to make the verse to the protections of offroad Doc and giving a touch of elegance and sportiness, an accomplice is also a splash of chrome. But far from wanting to present as offroad, the Outlander will just be a tone, which is also at the cabin. The instrument panel is revised with new materials and built more pleasant to the touch. Likewise, the seat covers are new and inspire a feeling of higher quality confirmed by the door panels and instruments, which take a graphic and more important.
As for the engine range, on the face of diesel, Mitsubishi repudiation for commercial reasons (admittedly non-technical) an honest two liters of origin Volkswagen stake everything on the brightest 2.2 with 156 hp and 380 Nm of blood instead of France (it is almost Needless to mention the agreement between Mitsubishi and the PSA Group, which sells the Outlander as Peugeot 4007 and Citroën C-Crosser, providing precisely the exchange diesel engine also to the Japanese). That is a refined turbodiesel arrives robotized transmission with double clutch TC-SST (offered to 1,450 euros), on which the leaders of the House are betting a lot. Data sheet in hand, the Outlander book is a hair more efficient (11.1 seconds in the 0-100, 200 km / h and 14.3 kilometers per liter against 11.7 seconds, 198 km / h and 13.7 kilometers / liter) but refusing to DIY in change results in a large smooth running and a greater relaxation in the guide. And speaking of quality of life on board, the 2010 Outlander promises important advances in the field of acoustic comfort. The progress is due to many small refinements aerodinamic should reduce hiss
FEW GOOD BUT THE PRICE LIST disappears basic version, called advice and with the same fate was shared with the Outlander's front wheel drive only. The first is price of 32,500 euros and is the Intense 2.2 turbo diesel, which has a number of other things alloy wheels 16 ", automatic climate control, Sint-CD player, dark rear windows and roof bars. For 2300 euro plus you can instead order the seven-seat variant Instyle, thanks to a foldaway third row of seats. In addition to the two folding seats, with this development circles grow to 18 ", the stereo earns a 6 CD autochanger and become the standard bi-xenon adaptive headlamps, rear parking sensors and the electronic key. Just for the record, we must remember that the Outlander is also proposed with a 2.4 a gasoline engine from 170 hp and matched to a CVT continuously variable, almost completely snubbed by customers who still prefer diesel.
