#MitsubishiOutlanderSport

There was a time when shopping for an SUV meant giving up fuel economy in exchange for extra interior room and cargo space. While that still may be the case for some models, there are plenty of fuel efficient crossovers and SUVs available in today’s marketplace, some of which get over 30 MPG on the highway.

Crossovers are taking over the market. Buyers can get big ones, small ones, long ones and tall ones. They can opt for models with three rows of seats, all-wheel drive or in rare instances even manual transmissions. Like it or not these versatile vehicles are rapidly becoming the de-facto choice of drivers in America.

Over 8,000 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport models are being recalled for three different issues, affecting only 2013 model year vehicles.

Mitsubishi is heading to the 2012 L.A. Auto Show with the North American debut of its 2014 Outlander model, along with a 2013 Outlander Sport Limited Edition.

The now made in the USA 2013 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport is hitting dealerships and will start at $19,170 excluding a destination charge of $825. The new MSRP is $375 more than the outgoing model.

Crossovers continue to be one of the most competitive new car segments in the industry, and that’s a good thing for car buyers. With more and more entries into the market, prices have dropped across the board. Here’s a quick look at the top 10 cheapest crossover vehicles.
