What Car? says
For Sharp handling, roomy cabin, good looks
Against Not as refined as rivals, uncomfortable fold-out seats
Verdict Stylish, practical 4x4, but rearmost seats for children only
Go for… 2.0 DI-D
Avoid… 2.4 MIVEC
- 1. The Outlander has well-weighted, precise steering and a crisp gearchange, while its tall body is well controlled
- 2. The 2.4 petrol is undoubtedly fast, but pricey to run against the diesel versions
- 3. Outlanders fall between insurance groups 21 and 27, meaning your premium won’t be too expensive when compared with other seven-seat 4x4s
- 4. The 2.4 petrol model has an Government average economy of 30mpg – but expect much less. The 2.2 diesel is more efficient, returning 38mpg
- 5. There have been a few recalls for the Outlander, most notably to do with leaking fuel pipes, stalling engines, failing brakes and faulty brake lights
