Please report on your Mitsubishi Outlander mileage here.
  
Include your odometer reading, city/highway mix, driving style or anything else you think may help others compare their mpg with yours. Thanks!

I have an '03 AWD with 40K miles on it. I can drive it back and forth to work, 22 miles 1 way, back roads and city street mix. It constantly gets 24mpg on this commute. I typically get 27 on highway trips, but once got 30 when the car had 11K miles on it.

We own an 04 Outlander AWD with the 4 cyl Mivec, approximately 25k. With mixed country/city driving it averages about 22/24 mpg although on highway trips with the whole family (5) plus luggage it gets 27/28 mpg running on cruise at 70/75 mph. Much better then I had expected.
 
This is our 3rd Mitsubishi & the best one so far.

Mileage is a very complicated parameter. The car engine, and its components are quite "predictable" factors, as long as the car is well-maintained. The variable ones are driving habits and traffic condition, which greatly affect MPG ratings. Also your choice of transmission (auto vs manual) and typical load, etc. So try to look on those things and see where you can improve.

How long will it take to break in? by 90dakota

I just recently purchased a 2006 Mitsubishi Outlander SE & I now have almost 3,000 miles on it. I am typically getting 20mpg on the highway at best, and about 15mpg in the city is this normal? My wife drives a Subaru Forester and the mpg was great from the begining. I personally like the styling on the inside & outside of the Outlander, plus it seems roomier that the Subaru. The really only disappointment is the gas mileage, otherwise I really like this car. Please fill me in on any info you might have. Thanks alot

I have a 2006 Outlander LS (auto) with about 4200 miles on it. Mixed driving I get about 22 mpg. This includes delivering a newspaper route where I drive extremely slow and stop and go a great deal.
