Anyway, this baby's CBU From Japan and priced to sell at RM171,644,80 OTR with insurance. It comes with 5 years or 100,000km Warranty with 10,000km service intervals.
TECHNICAL BITS:
It's fitted with familiar Lancer 2.4 Sportsback 4B12 engine Mated with CVT with 6 stepped Virtual ratios with paddle shifters producing 167ps@6000rpm and 222Nm@4100rpm.
But this SUV have what Mitsubishi called "Multi-select 4WD system". There's 3 modes at the push of a button:
A) 4WD ECO: this is 2WD mode with torque focused on the front. 4WD is engaged only when loss of traction is detected
B) 4WD AUTO: Perfect for wet or muddy conditions. If the wheel slip, torque distribution to the front and rear wheels are optimised.
C) 4WD Lock: This mode maximises traction for all wheels across the revs, enabling it to take on the worst terrains with ease. But it only works below 50km/h (I was told).
It comes with Electric power assist Rack and Pinion steering and Canggih Suspension (NO Leaf springs here!) in the form of Front MacPherson strut and Rear Multi-link. Like the Hyundai Santa Fe, this Outlander's chassis are Monocoque instead of Ladder frame.
