While commuting to work, navigating traffic, or traversing unfamiliar roads, you're often thinking about your safety. While designing vehicles, Mitsubishi engineers are thinking about safety as well. The 2018 Outlander boasts numerous standard safety features to give you peace of mind while driving, as well as various available state-of-the-art driver-assist and safety technologies to take your safety to the next level.  

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)

The available Adaptive Cruise Control system automatically maintains a set speed and following distance while driving. It uses radar to detect your distance from the vehicle ahead of you and maintains an appropriate and safe distance. Once your path is clear, your vehicle will automatically accelerate back up to your set speed.

Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)

Sometimes your visibility is restricted while backing up from your driveway or a parking space, leaving you feeling a little anxious. Luckily, Rear Cross Traffic Alert is here to help you out. This system will monitor both sides of your vehicle as you back up and alert you if a vehicle is approaching from either direction.

Blind Spot Warning (BSW) and Lane Change Assist (LCA)

Blind Spot Warning helps maximize your visibility while on the road, while Lane Change Assist makes changing lanes a safer endeavor. Blind Spot Warning monitors your blind spots and alerts you with an icon in your side-view mirror if a vehicle is present. If you switch on your turn signal to change lanes and there is a vehicle in your way, the warning icon will flash and the system will beep.

Forward Collision Mitigation (FCM)

This smart system uses radar and a camera to monitor the road ahead of you and alerts you if you are approaching a vehicle or pedestrian. The system will automatically apply the brakes if needed to mitigate the collision or hopefully prevent it altogether.

Lane Departure Warning (LDW)

This helpful system monitors your position within your lane and alerts you if it detects your vehicle drifting.
