Mitsubishi Australia has applied a pricing increase to its most popular model, the Outlander, a few months after an updated version of the medium-sized SUV.
The 2023 Outlander – which makes up more than a third of Mitsubishi’s sales this year so far – has had its pricing increased a uniform $1000 across the range, meaning its entry price is now $37,240 before on-roads for the five-seat ES.
This comes after updates to the range in December, and subsequently the plug-in hybrid (PHEV) versions, which increased the prices slightly and added some features, including the brand’s Mi-Pilot assisted driving feature.
The Outlander PHEV also falls under the price adjustment, now starting from $56,490 for the ES five-seater.
The petrol Outlander is powered by a 135kW/245Nm 2.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine, and transfers power to the wheels via a continuously variable transmission (CVT).

A Mitsubishi Australia spokesperson confirmed to CarsGuide that the new pricing adjustments come with no corresponding changes to the Outlander range, citing “increased supply chain costs” as the reason.
