I know, I know. The Outlander is outdated and irrelevant to today's car market, especially the previous generation. Unfortunately for me, the only options at the rental car lot was this and the Kia Sportage. I had already extensively tested the Kia, so I ended up rolling with the Mitsubishi despite my knowledge of its mediocrity. The car was not as bad as I expected, but it did have a defining fault: noise. Wind noise, road noise, and engine noise pours into the cabin at any speed. It's bad enough to the point where the turn signal click is not audible at all above 60 miles per hour or so. It was absent of any particularly annoying noises unlike the Passat I last tested, but the sheer volume of noise is astounding.
