New Outlander – Product Enhancements
New Outlander features the following product enhancements:
New Exterior Appearance Features:
* Distinctive ‘Jet-Fighter’ grille gives Outlander the family face of Mitsubishi – in line with Lancer Evolution, Lancer and Colt
* New front skid plate
* New side sill garnish – black material with chrome accent
* New colour keyed door mirror with side turn lamp

New Interior Features:
The interior passenger environment is dramatically enhanced with the introduction of faux leather and contrasting stitching on the dashboard and door panels. Furthermore, a new high contrast colour LCD instrument meter display gives a higher quality feel than the current display.
New Technical Features:
* Twin-clutch SST Transmission
The SST ‘auto’ transmission (except Equippe) uses two clutches, one to engage the gear in use the other to pre-select the next gear required, which ensures that the gear change takes place instantaneously. This innovative technology saves on CO2 emissions and massively reduces power loss through the range. With no torque converter, this 6-speed TC-SST gearbox is more efficient than a normal automatic.
* Hill start assist
Hill start assist automatically holds the brakes for about 2 seconds to prevent the vehicle from slipping backwards on steep slopes.
* Upgraded ETACS
Electric Time and Alarm Control System (ETACS) controls the functionality of all electronic devices on board
* Emergency Stop signal System (ESS)
The ESS system automatically detects sever braking to engage the hazard warning lights and also increase braking efficiency. This is just one of the innovative technologies incorporated into the Outlander range to give it its Euro NCAP
