Will Mitsubishi Motors make a new Outlander in 2026?
Yes, Mitsubishi Motors is committed to the Outlander lineup. For the 2026 model year, the standard Mitsubishi Outlander is expected to receive minor trim updates and feature refinements, building on the successful redesign it received a few years prior. The focus is on consistency and enhancing the existing value proposition, not a full redesign for this specific model year. This approach ensures proven reliability and availability of parts and service. Drivers can expect the 2026 Outlander to continue its strong showing in the mid-size SUV segment, offering a compelling mix of style, safety, and technology.
The 2026 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport is a compact crossover SUV that stands out in a crowded segment by offering standard All-Wheel Control (AWC) across all trim levels. This means enhanced confidence and traction on slippery roads or light off-road terrain. As a carry-over model from 2025, it maintains the proven design and engineering that drivers appreciate. It offers seating for five, a surprisingly spacious cargo area, and a suite of modern technology features.
The Outlander Sport is available with two engine options: a fuel-efficient 2.0-liter inline-four providing 148 horsepower and 145 lb-ft of torque, or a more robust 2.4-liter engine with 168 horsepower and 167 lb-ft of torque on higher trims. Both are paired with a smooth continuously variable transmission (CVT). This blend of performance, efficiency (EPA-estimated 23 city/29 highway MPG), and all-weather capability makes it an ideal vehicle for the diverse Florida weather.

Yes, the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport is a good car, especially for buyers prioritizing value, standard safety features, and a reliable warranty. Its greatest strengths lie in its standard All-Wheel Control, which many competitors offer as an expensive upgrade, and its industry-leading warranty that includes a 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain limited warranty.
This vehicle is built to be a dependable daily driver with enough cargo space (21.7 cubic feet standard, 49.5 cubic feet max) to handle everyday life. While it may not be the fastest SUV in its class, its focus on practicality, efficiency, and safety systems like a pre-collision system and lane departure warning make it a smart and sensible choice for a wide range of drivers.
Will the Outlander Sport lineup change in 2026?
For the 2026 model year, the Outlander Sport lineup remains largely consistent with the successful 2025 offerings. Mitsubishi is focusing on minor packaging enhancements and feature adjustments to keep the lineup fresh and competitive.
You can expect a familiar range of trims, from the entry-level ES to the popular SE and the adventurous Trail Edition. This consistency ensures that the value proposition of each trim level remains clear and compelling, allowing buyers at Jarett St Pete Mitsubishi to easily find the perfect fit for their budget and lifestyle.
How much can a 2026 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport Tow?
The 2026 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport is not primarily designed for heavy towing. Its compact size and efficient engineering are centered around passenger transport and cargo capacity. The official manufacturer-recommended towing capacity for the Outlander Sport is limited to just 1,500 pounds. This is suitable for a small utility trailer, a jet ski, or very light recreational equipment. For drivers who require a higher towing capacity, we would recommend looking at the larger 2026 Mitsubishi Outlander, which is engineered with more robust towing capabilities better suited for larger boats or camping trailers.
