Are the Three Major Components of the Outlander Imported?
1 Answers
They are probably not imported. Since this car is already a joint venture domestic production and the price is very affordable, importing the three major components would increase costs, and manufacturers wouldn't do that. More information about the Outlander is as follows: 1. Overview: As one of the few models in the SUV market that offers a 7-seater version, the Mitsubishi Outlander is definitely distinctive. After twelve years, it was domestically produced for the second time. The domestic Outlander is not only a faithful replica of the imported version but also slightly optimized for the domestic market, becoming the only option in the joint venture 7-seater SUV market. The name Outlander evokes a spirit of adventure on unknown roads, inheriting Mitsubishi's traditional off-road technology, and leading the development direction of a new generation of SUVs—a perfect combination of flexibility and sportiness. Mitsubishi's traditional off-road technology was once used in the Paris-Dakar Rally, and this time, the application of this technology in the Outlander means that the Outlander also carries championship genes in its bones: it adopts a new four-wheel drive system, a 2.4-liter all-aluminum engine, and is redesigned and improved based on the Lancer body/chassis to make the chassis more functional. The new high-impact safety devices give the body structure outstanding safety. 2. Exterior: The Outlander's front end looks very solid, with the inverted triangular boss on the engine hood extending down to the top of the bumper, and the front air intake is split into two parts. The slightly protruding design of the lower body makes it look very full. However, compared to the original version, the modifications claimed by BAIC to suit Chinese conditions can be understood as cost-cutting changes—the highlights of a leisure vehicle, the sunroof and roof rack, are missing.
