I am the original owner of a 2020 Outlander Sport.

I am the original owner of a 2020 Outlander Sport. It is a good choice for my commute to work and weekly grocery store trip. The catalytic convertor was stolen 3 times. When the radio screen stopped functioning, the dealership replaced it with a preowned radio. The car is okay for the value but the problem lies within the dealership employees, always trying to upsale by destroying and stealing.

The engine is subject to a great amount of stress when the cvt programming fails to keep it in the right "gear" circumferential ratio. The involved parties doing their best to convince others that it was our fault for the exhaust valve interfering with the pistons stroke pattern or vise versa.

2020 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport review: Our expert's take

By Mike Hanley

The verdict: The Mitsubishi Outlander Sport gets refreshed styling for 2020, but it suffers from some significant problems that hold it back in the competitive subcompact SUV class.

Versus the competition: Less versatile than the Honda HR-V and less entertaining to drive than the Hyundai Kona, the Outlander Sport’s highlights — highway driving feel and front-seat comfort — aren’t enough to make up for its misses.

As car shoppers increasingly turn their backs on cars in favor of SUVs (at least while gas prices are low), subcompact SUVs like the Outlander Sport are replacing compact cars as the new entry-level models. The Outlander Sport is one of the older models in the class — it dates back to the 2011 model year, when it debuted in the U.S. — but Mitsubishi has updated it over the years and gave it a front-end makeover for 2020.
