Mitsubishi is demonstrating consistent excellence by earning an Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) Top Safety Pick+ for the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander. Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. was honored to learn that its completely redesigned Outlander received this award for the second year in a row. Mitsubishi Motors is the only automobile manufacturer to have its entire SUV lineup named as IIHS 2013 "Top Safety Pick +" award winners. Only 3 of the 15 vehicles tested in the Small SUV segment received the + distinction. 2 of the 3 vehicles are produced by Mitsubishi Motors, the 7 passenger 2014 Outlander and the 5 passenger Outlander Sport both received this honorable accolade in June. Receiving this award indicates that these vehicles offer superior crash protection and meet the tougher crash safety standers set by the non-profit vehicle research and crash test ratings agency. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) rates vehicles as “good,” “acceptable,” “marginal” or “poor” based on performance in a moderate overlap frontal crash, small overlap frontal crash, side impact, rollover, plus evaluations of seat/head restraints for protection against neck injuries in rear impacts. The “Top Safety Pick+” requires a vehicle to score a “good” rating in at least four of the five tests and no less than an “acceptable” in the fifth test. The Outlander is one of only two Small SUVs that achieve a rating of "good" in all 5 categories of the new test. The 2014 Outlander tested notably well in the small overlap frontal crash portion of the test, which was just added this year. The success of the new Outlander can be attributed to the many advance high-tech design features including the increased use of high-tensile steel and Mitsubishi's patented Reinforced Impact Safety Evolution (RISE) safety body construction. Starting at an MSRP of only $22,995, the new 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander comes with a long list of standard features (including seating for seven) and is one of the most fuel efficient crossover vehicles in its class with an EPA fuel mileage rating of 31 mpg highway.
