The 2017 Subaru Crosstrek vs 2017 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport Comparison by Mike Shaw Subaru Serving Denver, CO

Colorado driving simply requires a vehicle that can handle anything the road or skies may throw at it. You can't take chances being stuck on winding mountain highways or slick city streets. That's why the 2017 Subaru Crosstrek is the perfect choice for Colorado drivers. It comes standard with a renowned all-wheel drive system, has a high ground clearance, cool style, great features, and so much more for an affordable price. But how does the 2017 Crosstrek compare to the competition? Does it really offer the best features for the best price? Read on to learn more about how the 2017 Crosstrek compares to the 2017 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport, then come into Mike Shaw Subaru and experience the dependable Subaru Crosstrek for yourself.

2017 Subaru Crosstrek vs 2017 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport: Design

There's really no comparison between these two SUVs when it comes to design. The 2017 Crosstrek offers a higher maximum cargo capacity and roof rails standard, so you'll have more cargo carrying options. You'll have to pay extra to get roof rails on the Mitsubishi, and you'll also have to pay extra to get fog lights, another feature that's standard on the Crosstrek. A 6.2-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Pandora app integration and more is standard on every Crosstrek, but you'll also have to pay extra to upgrade to an infotainment system on the Mitsubishi, and this is just the start. When it comes to getting the most features for the money, Subaru simply outdoes Mitsubishi.

2017 Subaru Crosstrek vs 2017 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport: Performance

On paper, both of these models deliver identical power specs and nearly identical fuel efficiency, but Subaru does it with all-wheel drive standard. Yet again, you have to pay thousands extra to get the "all-wheel control" system of Mitsubishi. Drive each model and you'll also notice that Subaru delivers smoother, more controlled, more enjoyable power thanks to the low center of gravity achieved by the standard horizontally-opposed BOXER engine. When it comes to performance, Subaru is hard to beat.

2017 Subaru Crosstrek vs 2017 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport: Safety

The safety of you and your passengers is something you can't take any chances on, and Subaru takes your safety seriously. That's why every 2017 Crosstrek comes standard with a strong, ring-shaped reinforcement frame and a rearview camera (you'll have to upgrade trim levels to get a rearview camera on the Outlander Sport). What's more, the 2017 Crosstrek helps you avoid accidents better by making the entire EyeSight driver assistance system and blind spot monitoring available, while you won't find any similar features available on the Mitsubishi. When it comes down to it, you'll be safer in the Crosstrek than you will be in the Outlander Sport.
