With a Mitsubishi Outlander by your side, you can save big and still get a vehicle that can get you everywhere you want to go. But how does it compare to popular SUVs, like the Subaru Forester? See the comparison right here.

Interior

Mitsubishi Outlander: One area where the Mitsubishi Outlander easily outclasses the Subaru Forester is the interior. The cabin is a class above, offering comfortable seating for up to seven people and more front shoulder room, coming in at 57.9 inches. Plus, the driver's seat comes with power-adjustable lumbar support, something the Forester does not offer for drivers from Broomfield, CO, and beyond.

Subaru Forester: The Subaru Forester is still a spacious SUV, and like the Outlander, comes with good interior materials and design accents. The only area where Forester gets a leg up on the Outlander is cargo space. Expect 74.4 cubic feet in the Forester and 64.3 cubic feet in the Outlander.

Exterior

Mitsubishi Outlander: When it comes to looks and the exterior, the Mitsubishi Outlander differs from the Subaru Forester. While many may argue that the Subaru Forester appears more distinct and rugged, the Mitsubishi Outlander looks more refined, modern, and offers more curb appeal around Denver, CO. With shiny paint coats and a confident exterior design, the Outlander feels like it has a proud attitude.

Subaru Forester: There is no doubt that the Subaru Forester is a bold, rugged SUV, serving Arvada, CO, residents well. As it offers more exterior gear for off-roading and the like, it prioritizes function over form, which is ideal for serving Golden, CO, drivers; the Outlander prioritizes both.

Technology

Mitsubishi Outlander: Expect the Outlander to feature a standard 12.3-inch main touchscreen, an 8-speaker or 12-speaker Yamaha sound system, and wireless smartphone connectivity through Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

Subaru Forester: The Subaru Forester has a smaller 11.6-inch touchscreen on most models; the base trim only offers a 7.0-inch touchscreen. That falls behind the Outlander's setup, but you can still expect wireless smartphone connectivity on your drives around Boulder, CO.

Safety

Mitsubishi Outlander: The Mitsubishi Outlander has plenty of driver-assistance features, like standard Automated Emergency Braking and Rear-Cross Traffic Alerts, as well as optional features like Adaptive Cruise Control.

Subaru Forester: The Subaru Forester comes with Subaru's iconic EyeSight suite of safety technologies, including many of the same technologies as seen in the Outlander.

Off-Roading

Mitsubishi Outlander: Off-roading is one area where the Subaru excels, while the Mitsubishi remains average. The Outlander can tow up to 2,000 pounds, but that's about it.

Subaru Forester: With the Wilderness trim, the Subaru Forester becomes a true off-roader, serving the needs of Westminster, CO, drivers with ease. With higher ground clearance, near shocks, and off-roading technologies like Hill Descent Control, the Forester can take you anywhere.

Warranty Coverage

Mitsubishi Outlander: For warranty coverage, the Mitsubishi Outlander far outclasses the Subaru Forester. It offers a Limited Warranty for up to 5 years or 60,000 miles, a Powertrain Warranty for up to 10 years or 100,000 miles, and complimentary maintenance for 2 years or 30,000 miles, serving Aurora, CO, drivers well.

Subaru Forester: The Subaru Forester does not match what the Outlander brings to the table. The Limited Warranty only covers 3 years or 36,000 miles, the Powertrain Warranty only covers up to 5 years or 60,000 miles, and there is no complimentary scheduled maintenance.
