Senior-Friendly Features of the Mitsubishi Outlander 2024

The Mitsubishi Outlander is an affordable three-row SUV that provides a unique blend of comfort, technology, luxury, and performance. Its external design creates a persona of majesty and opulence, and the interiors match this with refined elegance, with the concept of  omotenashi (hospitality) in mind. The vehicle also features a range of safety and driver assistance technologies, making it possible even for senior drivers to have a safe, intuitive, and seamless driving experience.

Senior-Friendly Features of the Mitsubishi Outlander 2024

Performance
The Mitsubishi Outlander is powered by a standard 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that can make 181 horsepower and 181 pound-feet of torque. This powertrain pairs with a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT), with buyers having a choice between two-wheel and all-wheel drive.

The four-wheel drive version has been refined with the Super All-Wheel Control (S-AWC) system. This vastly improves the Outlander’s handling and stability, offering seniors a more confident driving experience. The vehicle also has a Drive Mode Selector, which helps the car adapt better to any terrain and weather and have optimal control in every situation. Under this feature, drivers are offered a choice between six different modes: Eco, Normal, Tarmac, Gravel, Snow, and Mud.

The 2024 Outlander has a combined fuel efficiency rating of 27 mpg, ranked as one of the best in class. This translates to up to 24 mpg in the city and up to 31 mpg on the highways.

Mitsubishi has also added an all-new suspension system to the Outlander, making it even more comfortable for seniors. The new setup includes lightweight and high-rigidity aluminum components and anti-vibration support, offering passengers a smoother, quieter ride.

Design
The vehicle features high-quality and premium materials, carefully selected color schemes, and more  to offer passengers a luxury feel. Apart from that, a power panoramic sunroof is available.

Exterior lighting has been designed tastefully so drivers get the best visibility without compromising the driving experience of others on the road. These further enhance the modern aesthetics of the Outlander, offering a comfortable and safe drive for everyone around.

Infotainment
Buyers are sure to be impressed by the technology features of the Outlander. On the dashboard, drivers are greeted by two screens—a central display and a digital driver display —that showcase a plethora of important information. While a 7-inch driver display comes standard on the lower trims, buyers can opt for the available 12.3-inch screen.

The central infotainment display is an intuitive unit that has a built-in theater-like Bose sound system, Android Auto connectivity, and available wireless Apple CarPlay connectivity. Some seniors may particularly enjoy this system, as it features hard knobs and buttons instead of touchscreen maneuvering. A head-up display and a digital assistant are available, further enhancing the ease of use. Charging ports are also available at the bottom of the center stack.

Safety and driver assistance features
One of the most important features that seniors look for in a vehicle is its safety. Fortunately, the Mitsubishi Outlander is well-equipped with a range of safety and convenience features that are sure to offer seniors peace of mind.

Under the advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), buyers will find safety technologies such as active blind spot assist, rear automatic emergency braking, blind spot warning, and forward collision mitigation with pedestrian detection. The vehicle also has intuitive convenience features, such as a multi-view camera system, reverse auto-tilt door mirrors, a tire pressure monitoring system with tire fill notification, and a trailer stability assist system.

Buyers will also find the MI Pilot Assist on the Outlander— a system that uses radar and cameras to improve acceleration, braking, and steering and ensure a smooth ride even in the most challenging situations. This system includes features such as lane centering assistance, speed control, traffic jam stop-and-go, smoother turning, and highway exiting for a hassle-free ride.

The Outlander has been fitted with 11 airbags, including the front, driver’s side dashboard, side-curtain airbags, and a driver’s seat-mounted front-centering airbag, for utmost security.
