Compact in Size, Big in Features
Though both of these models are designed to maneuver their way through city streets and provide optimal fuel economy on the highway, buyers also want to get comfortable. The two models are similar in space for the front row, the 2025 Mitsubishi Outlander has more space for passengers in the second row. This model offers two extra inches for rear legroom and almost six more inches of hip room. In addition, the Outlander has a third row, giving it significantly more total passenger volume than the RAV4.
Powering Your Way
Both models have a 2.5L engine, but the Mitsubishi has slightly more torque at 181 compared to 163 lb.-ft for the RAV4. The 2025 Mitsubishi Outlander also has more towing power with a 2000-pound max towing capacity while the RAV4 is limited to 1750 pounds. Base trims of both models are front-wheel drive and include automatic emergency braking. You can drive the Outlander with more confidence because it has a longer warranty with the basic coverage in effect for five years or 60K over the RAV4 warranty of three years of 36K. Remote engine start is standard on the base trim of the Outlander but only available as an added option for the Toyota SUV.
Amenities
Comfort is important as you drive, especially if you plan to spend a lot of time behind the wheel. Both of these models include comfort features even on the base trims with a manual climate control system for the RAV4 and dual-zone climate control for the Outlander. Manual front seats allow you to make adjustments to fit your preferences. Both SUVs include an eight-inch touchscreen for the base trim to keep you connected. You can pair your phone with Android Auto or Apple CarPlay on either model to see your apps on the screen.
Safety
Toyota and Mitsubishi loaded their SUVs with the most critical safety systems. Both models include Forward Collision Warning, backup cameras, lane keep assist and rear cross-traffic alert on the base trims. Mitsubishi also adds rear parking sensors and blind spot monitoring. These driver-assistance features warn of possible crash situations, so you can react and avoid them. Pedestrian Detection is also standard and monitors the path for people walking in front of the vehicle.
