Mitsubishi Outlander Roadest Hits the Road
Nissan recently came out with the Dualis Urban Flare, a small SUV that has some (very minor) visual cues but really did not exude any type of flair whatsoever, urban or otherwise. To really give your car-based soft-roader some metropolitan attitude, you need to do what Mitsubishi has done with the Outlander Roadest , which went on sale May 28.
Close that wheel gap with some 18in Rays alloys and slap a menacing speed bump scraper aero kit on that puppy. Available with both 2.4L 16-valve MIVEC four or 3.0L V6 and AWD, the Roadest also comes with a unique front grille, air dam, chrome plated foglamp nacelles, chrome door handles, chrome side mirrors and oodles of road presence. It’s not meant for mud bogging and there’s no pretension suggesting it might - it’s right there in the name.
