On other markets (e.g. New Zealand), Mitsu specifically mentions the CVT word when describing the tranny - "INVECS-III Sport Mode 6-speed CVT" .... According with a Mitsu press release, the 2008 Lancer is the FIRST Mitsubishi car with CVT in NA.
Whomever says the NA 2007 Outlander has a CVT tranny is misinformed.

AFAIK, 2.4L 4cyl versions get CVT transmission, while all 3.0L V6 gets the traditional Auto transmission.
 
Indeed anybody who speaks of CVT in a 07 US Outlander is misinformed. MMNA never made any official statements regarding 07 Outlanders having CVTs.
