Core Features and Value: Outlander Sport S and ES
The 2025 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport S gives drivers the essentials without leaving out important modern conveniences. Standard equipment includes a 7.0-inch display audio system, Bluetooth® connectivity, four speakers, and a rearview camera. Safety comes first with standard Forward Collision Mitigation with Pedestrian Detection, Lane Departure Warning, and Automatic High Beams.

Inside the cabin, fabric seating surfaces, a 6-way adjustable driver’s seat, and split-folding rear seats provide comfort and flexibility for cargo. The S trim is designed for buyers who want a dependable vehicle that delivers essential safety and technology in an affordable package.
The 2025 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport ES adds important upgrades in both technology and style. It replaces the 7.0-inch display with an 8.0-inch Smartphone-Link Display Audio system and integrates Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ for seamless device connection. SiriusXM® and a FAST-Key entry system with push-button start increase convenience for daily driving. The ES trim also carries 18-inch two-tone alloy wheels fitted with P225/55R18 tires, creating a stronger stance and a more refined look. These changes make the ES trim appealing to drivers who want enhanced technology and design without altering the vehicle’s proven performance and efficiency.
Distinctive Styling and Comfort: Outlander Sport LE and SE
The 2025 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport LE emphasizes style and cabin enhancements. Black-painted alloy wheels, black side mirrors, and a black interior with red contrast stitching create a sportier appearance. The steering wheel, shift knob, and parking brake lever are all leather-wrapped with the same red stitching, giving the cabin a more dynamic feel. Heated front seats are also standard, making cold mornings more comfortable in Pennsylvania. The LE trim keeps the same powertrain as the lower trims but stands apart through its bold styling and added comfort.
The 2025 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport SE expands both comfort and technology. It features combination soft-touch seating surfaces, heated front seats, and HD Radio® for a more premium cabin experience. Rain-sensing wipers and heated side mirrors with integrated turn signals improve convenience in variable weather. An auto-dimming rearview mirror adds refinement, while advanced safety systems become available at this level. Blind Spot Warning, Lane Change Assist, and Rear Cross Traffic Alert provide additional support for drivers navigating city streets or highways. The SE trim is one of the most complete trims in the lineup, combining safety, comfort, and connectivity.
Rugged Identity and Protection: Outlander Sport Trail Edition
The 2025 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport Trail Edition introduces a tougher, more adventurous look with functional upgrades. It includes exclusive trail package protectors on the front, rear, and sides, along with a hood protector and fender effects. Black-painted alloy wheels, black side mirrors, a hood decal, and grille accents give it a distinct visual identity. Inside, the Trail Edition trim uses the same red-stitched interior accents found in the LE and pairs them with heated front seats and the 8.0-inch Smartphone-Link Display Audio system. The Trail Edition trim keeps the same mechanical foundation as the rest of the lineup but offers unique exterior protection and a rugged appearance for drivers who prefer an SUV with a more adventurous character.
