AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)09/28 Report--

Although Mitsubishi, which is also a Japanese brand, is not outstanding compared with "Japanese Musketeer" in China, since Mitsubishi Orlande officially entered China in 2016, its monthly sales have been maintained at about 7,000 to 8,000 vehicles, accounting for about 70% of the Mitsubishi family. It can be seen that its product power can still be recognized by many consumers in China. Mitsubishi Outlander for the third generation of products, seven years later finally ushered in a new generation.

A few days ago, a group of overseas media exposed a set of new Orlande road test photos, the new car still retains the hard-line off-road flavor, and Pajero's temperament is similar, the car is expected to be officially launched in the third quarter of next year. From the spy photos, although there is a high camouflage sticker, but you can still see more design details.

In terms of appearance, the new car is suspected to use Mitsubishi "Dynamic Shield" design language to create an "X" shape as a whole. The medium net uses a small-size grille, and the headlamp group on both sides of the car adopts a split design, with LED daytime driving lights at the top and fog lights on both sides of the through grille at the bottom.

The side lines of the new car are smooth, and the roof is expected to be suspended, with large-size tight-spoke rims. In addition, the ground clearance of the new car also looks considerable. It is reported that the new car will share platform development with the next generation of Nissan Qijun, and the body size may also be increased.

The rear part of the car, the overall shape is relatively simple, the previously released Engelberg Tourer concept car is very similar, horizontal LED light source taillights, equipped with roof spoiler embedded high brake lights.

In terms of power, the new generation of Outlander will give up the current 2.0L and 2.4L self-priming power and replace it with Mitsubishi's newly developed 1.5T turbocharged four-cylinder engine with a maximum power of 114 kilowatts. In addition, the new Outlander will also continue to launch plug-in hybrid version.

Although the current Outlander is not a hot-selling model, it also sells a lot of cars. However, compared with recent years, Mitsubishi Outlander sales are down a lot this year, with a cumulative sales of 6852 vehicles in August. After all, it has not been changed for many years, so it is naturally inadequate to be competitive in the market.
