The Mitsubishi Outlander has been given a notable update for 2025, featuring enhanced equipment, updated styling, and revised driving dynamics. The refreshed model marks the most comprehensive revision since the current generation launched, with petrol-only versions priced from $39,990 before on-road costs. Updated 2025 Outlander plug-in hybrid models are expected to join the line-up at a later date.

Mechanical updates for new Outlander
The 2025 Mitsubishi Outlander continues to use the 2.5-litre naturally aspirated four-cylinder petrol engine, producing 135kW and 244Nm, paired with a CVT featuring enhanced noise isolation.

These changes were developed collaboratively by Mitsubishi teams in Australia and Japan, with input from local road testing.
