Expert 2011 Mitsubishi Endeavor review

our expert's take

Vehicle Overview

Shortly after introducing its compact Outlander SUV, Mitsubishi added the Endeavor, a larger crossover SUV. Now in its eighth year on the market, the Endeavor received some new styling cues last year to keep it more contemporary. It’s intended primarily for on-road motoring. A dual-range transfer case is not included, so off-road capabilities are limited. The Endeavor’s competition includes the Honda Pilot, Toyota Highlander and Nissan Murano.

Two trim levels are offered: LS and SE. Front-wheel drive is standard, but SE models are available with all-wheel drive.

New for 2011
Changes this year are relegated mostly to equipment updates. The uplevel SE trim gains a standard navigation system, backup camera and moonroof.

Exterior
The Endeavor has a front end that features a mesh grille set above a chin-type spoiler. Large wheel openings and creased wheel arches are present. Exterior features include:

  • Fully independent suspension
  • 17-inch wheels on LS,  18-inch wheels on SE
  • Standard fog lights

Interior
Up to five people can fit inside the Endeavor. Rear passengers sit in a 60/40-split folding backseat. Cargo capacity behind the rear seat is 40.7 cubic feet, which grows to 76.4 cubic feet when the seat is folded down. Interior features include:

  • Standard cloth seats; heated leather upholstery optional
  • Standard CD stereo
  • Standard manual air conditioning; automatic climate control optional
  • Standard cruise control
  • Optional Rockford Fosgate six-CD audio system
  • Optional power driver’s seat
  • SE adds touch-screen navigation system, backup camera and moonroof

Under the Hood
The Endeavor comes standard with a 3.8-liter V-6 engine. Mechanical features include:

  • V-6 makes 225 horsepower and 255 pounds-feet of torque
  • Standard four-speed automatic transmission with clutchless-manual mode
  • Maximum towing capacity of 3,500 pounds with all-wheel drive

Safety
Standard safety features include:

  • Four-wheel-disc antilock brakes
  • Side-impact airbags for the front seats
  • Side curtain airbags
  • Electronic stability system

  • Awesome.. but expensive to repair.

    Bought this used (for 12,000!) with 71,000 miles and it now has 175,000. Would love the car if repairs weren’t so expensive and numerous. It’s now our third car.. used primarily for short trips and gear hauling (photographer). The cargo area is massive and perfect for my needs.

  • Good car. Few problems.

    Have the 2011 se model with a sun roof. The sun roof leaks. Has messed up my headliner. I have tightened it. When you close your doors opens back up. Have 109000 miles burns oil.

  • We love this vehicle.

    We bought our Endeavor in 2016 with 71,000 miles on it and it currently has 132,000 miles. It has taken us to the smoky mountains twice and I have no doubt that it will take us back next year as well. Hoping to get 200,000 miles out of it, but would not be surprised if it goes past that. Maintenance and premium gas has been a little expensive, but the sticker price on the used car was reasonable and somewhat offsets it. Originally, I wanted the car for myself and was going to give my new Fusion to my wife.. but that didn’t go over very well. We share it now and I always look forward to driving it.

  • Exactly what I needed

    I bought my 2011 Endeavor used in 2019 for a camping vehicle and to haul kayaks and my St Bernard. I had the car 2 weeks and it got hit by a 70 foot pine tree in a wind storm (we weren't in it). It held up incredibly well. We rebuilt it and now drive it on a salvage title. It has taken us through SEVERAL states and has climbed large mountains. We have driven it down steep muddy embankments to get to back country camping spots and the AWD does great on snow too. My husband and I have slept in the back with seats folded down and had a good night's sleep (hubby is 6'3" and 240 pounds). We are very pleased with this vehicle's versatility. We use premium gas and get almost 20 mpg. My ONLY complaint is the dashboard squeaks and has done it since I got it but I didn't notice when I test drove it. We haven't figured out what is loose in the dash. My husband and I are well pleased. I've had it 7 months now and regular maintenance has been all it needs, we've put almost 10,000 on it already!

  • Definitely the most reliable car I've owned.

    92k later, only changed the oil-battery-brakes-A/C-wheel bearings (rear) Car always starts on the first try. No squeaks or things falling apart. Built well. Exterior paint is holding up no rust.

  • Not my dream SUV

    The car meets my need but the dashboard design is awkward. Has good leg room and trunk space. I miss the options of seat adjustments and option to change the radio out.

  • love this car

    I bought this car with little knowledge of the product. Its been a great car....would buy it again. Its powerful and I have had to do only routine maintains on this car...with the exception of 3 wheel bearing replacements on the same wheel. I currently have 230000 miles on this car and its still going strong. I'm still confident with its safety i gave it to my son to drive.

    Four wheel drive with plenty of power from the 3.8 L engine. Cargo space like a truck and a rack on roof to store and secure all needed for all outside active outdoors folks. Handling behind the wheel superior.

  • Best Deal for the Money

    I have owned my 2011 Endeavor for 4 years. I bought it used with 30K miles and have since pushed the odometer up to 109K. I have had zero problems with the vehicle thus far. I service it regularly, and in turn it has treated me very well. When I bought this vehicle it was significantly cheaper than its nearest competitors from Toyota, Nissan, Subaru, Jeep and Ford. However if I sold it today, it would sell for significantly less as well. So if you aren't looking for a long-term investment, maybe this isn't the car for you. the Good: Plenty of power, comfortable for long trips, lots of cargo space, user friendly dash configuration, All Wheel Drive (has worked great in both snow and mud), good ground clearance, seats 5 comfortably. Surprisingly great handling for such a large vehicle. Swap out the factory wheels for some slightly larger ones with all terrain tires and it's actually not bad looking. I get a lot of compliments. The Bad: truly awful gas mileage, unsophisticated transmission, limited standard features, limited aftermarket part availability, noisy cabin at highway speeds. If you are looking for a reliable SUV with AWD, lots of space, and the power of a V6, but don't want to spend too much, and are okay with forgoing some luxury amenities, then this is the vehicle for you.
