The tested model of Mitsubishi was introduced in Australia in late 2006. This 5 star rating applies to all 7-seat Outlander variants and the 5-seat Outlander VRX variant.
The diesel left-hand-drive European model was tested by Euro NCAP. Australasian specifications may vary and therefore models sold in Australasia might provide different levels of protection to those described on this page. The design of the glove box differs with the Australian model and this is taken into account in the following assessment.
Safety equipment, as tested, not standard on all variants. Dual front airbags and antilock brakes (ABS) with electronic brake distribution (EBD) are standard. Side airbags and head-protecting side curtains are standard on all 7-seat variants and the 5-seat VRX and are optional on other variants. Electronic stability control (ESC) is standard on all variants from model-year 2008 and was standard on V6 variants from 2006. Intelligent seat belt reminders are fitted to both front seats. The front seat belt buckles are mounted on the seats and the upper anchorages are adjustable. These features improve the fit of the seat belt. Pretensioners are fitted to the front seat belts to reduce slack in the event of a crash. A three point seat belt is fitted to the centre rear seat. This provides better protection than a two point (lap) seat belt.
