Right-hand-drive Outlander seems well prepared for bad UK roads, but offers for little owners to enthuse about. The third generation of Mitsubishis Outlander, which is now just weeks from its UK-market introduction. A full road test is in the offing, as is a group test – the latter taking into account the avalanche of new models youve got to choose from if youre shopping for a 30k SUV this winter. Whether its the 2013 Toyota RAV4, the new Ford Kuga, last years Honda CRV or the Hyundai Santa Fe – or none of the above – you can be certain that well crown a new Autocar champion class before long. But ahead of all that came an early chance to the sample Outlander in UK-market specification and right-hand-drive form. Not on UK roads, mores the pity, but at least on surfaces varied enough how to tell this medium-size seven-sjedala should conduct itself over here.
