Since its 2022 model-year debut, the Outlander has reshaped perceptions of Mitsubishi, appealing to a new customer base with its intuitive and smooth tech integration.
According to Mitsubishi Motors North America CEO Mark Chaffin, technology has played a pivotal role in the Outlander’s success since its Amazon Live launch—the first time a vehicle debuted on that platform.
