While it isn't the most utilitarian car in its class, the Outlander does have some versatile features such as third-row seating and decent tow ratings–Edmunds.com
Seating and Comfort of the 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander
One of the main highlights of the 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander is its seating ability. The Outlander can seat 7 People, as it comes in a 7 Seater configuration as standard. The 3rd Row however is best suited for kids as they are quite cramped and compact in terms of the area they offer.

In terms of comfort, the seats do a decent job of providing comfort to all the passengers in the cabin. We could, however, have loved a better cushioning of the seats and a higher seating layout. Passengers seating at the front and 2nd row, won’t complain much about the area on offer as it is at par with the rest of the competition.
Infotainment of the 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander
Mitsubishi has updated the Infotainment System of the new Outlander and added Apple CarPlay and Android Auto in its existing Infotainment System as an option. A 7” Touchscreen System also comes as Standard across the Range.
However, this is where the good points end. Intuitive and easy to use won’t be the first words that would come to your mind when you start using this infotainment system. They offer a considerable amount of Lag while usage and becomes even cumbersome while changing the audio settings or connecting other devices. The Following are some of the features that can be found in the Infotainment System of the Outlander:
- Android Auto and Apple Car Play Compatibility
- 7” Touchscreen Infotainment System with Navigation
- SiriusXM Radio with 3 Months Subscription
- Bluetooth, Front, and Rear USB Ports
- Rockford Fosgate Music System
- Bluetooth Telephony and Connectivity to Multiple devices

From a common perspective, the Outlander offers around 34.2 cubic feet of space. This is among the highest in the segment and can take a lot of stuff with it. The 2020 Kia Sorento manages to beat the Outlander by a very small margin in terms of Cargo space but that isn’t a substantial loss.
