Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The 2021 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV finishes near the bottom of our hybrid and electric SUV rankings. It’s outdated and less comfortable than rivals, and in a real “you had one job” scenario, its fuel economy ratings aren’t even that impressive.

Pros
Decent cargo capacity
Excellent warranty

Cons
Looks and feels antiquated in almost every aspect
Low-rent interior
Below-average fuel economy ratings compared to other PHEVs
Disappointing powertrain, handling, and ride quality

Mitsubishi has already revealed the next-generation Outlander, but it has still introduced several significant changes to the outgoing one for the 2021 model year. Most notably, the Outlander lineup is now only available with a plug-in-hybrid powertrain. Gone are the base four-cylinder engine and available V-6. A third row of seats is also gone because it's not compatible with the location of the PHEV's battery pack. The latter now has a larger capacity than before and offers more all-electric driving range (24 miles versus 22), and the PHEV's top speed increases from 79 to 83 mph during all-electric operation. The plug-in's old 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine is replaced with a more powerful 2.4-liter version. And now with a bigger rear-mounted electric motor, the PHEV's combined horsepower increases by 31 to 221 horses total.

Pros
Plug-in-hybrid powertrain feels responsive,
adjustable regenerative-braking settings,
substantial cargo space.

Cons
No longer offers a third row,
considerably more expensive than before,
other plug-in hybrids are much more efficient.

For 2021 New battery pack offers more electric range than last year's model.Updated software reduces vibrations and noise from the engine.Limited Edition trim introduced with more standard features.

Pros
Generous list of standard features
Plug-in hybrid powertrain provides about 24 miles of all-electric range
Standard all-wheel drive for enhanced traction on slippery surfaces

Cons
Poor cabin quality with lots of creaks and rattles
Weak acceleration and vague steering make for a bad driving experience
It doesn't offer a third row like the regular Mitsubishi Outlander
Small gas tank limits overall range

For 2021 Previously optional advanced safety features are now standard.More standard comfort and convenience features on each trim.New Latitude Lux and related 80th Anniversary editions debut.

Pros
Available V6 and turbocharged engines provide smooth, assertive power
Suspension smooths out rough surfaces
User-friendly 8.4-inch touchscreen on many models
Trailhawk offers excellent off-road capability for a small SUV

Cons
Sluggish acceleration with the base engine
Less cargo capacity than other small crossovers

The 2021 Jeep Cherokee prioritizes off-road capability beyond all else.

Pros
Excessive off-road talent
Refined turbo-4
Better looks than before
Good active safety features

Cons
Pricey compared to class
Poor gas mileage
No hybrid
Cramped interior

By:

For 2021, Jeep gives the Cherokee several newly standard active safety features. These include automated emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, lane-keeping assist, and more. The lineup also benefits from reshuffled standard features. For instance, the base model adds heated exterior mirrors and one-touch up/down front side windows; the Trailhawk adds a heated steering wheel and front seats as well as remote start. There's also a new 80th Anniversary Edition that's based on the Latitude LUX trim level, so it inherits all the same standard features. Highlights include Granite Crystal 19-inch wheels, leather upholstery with contrast stitching, power-adjustable front seats, the larger 8.4-inch touchscreen, a panoramic sunroof, and more.

Pros
Tows more than its competition, multiple powertrain options, class-leading off-road capability.

Cons
Drives bigger than compact rivals, interior isn't exactly spacious, less cargo space than top competitors.
