When driving with bub on board safety is always on your mind. The Outlander comes with a Five star ANCAP safety rating along with a high child protection rating.

But the driver monitor system is annoying. Even when you look at the central screen it bings at you. Remembering to turn it off every time is frustrating.

Having a clear reverse camera,  heads up display, and digital rear view mirror all add to the feeling of safety.

Auto headlights and wipers also means there are less things to worry about.

Both Outlanders came with a 2.5 litre, 4 cylinder petrol motor. Driving all four wheels through an all-wheel drive system and an 8 step CVT.

It’s not a powerhouse engine but ample for everyday driving. It can also be a little thirsty.

Mitsubishi has a plug in hybrid versions as well.

But honestly, I would prefer a normal hybrid for better economy.

Overall, the Outlander Exceed has a lot going for it. Style, interior space, safety features and a full 10 year warranty for peace of mind.

But the biggest appeal is the outstanding value for money.

The Mitsubishi Outlander definitely gets the Mum and Bub tick of approval.

My first impressions of the Outlander is I actually like the design. It’s a little boxy but manages to hide its size quite well.

Step inside and you immediately are impressed with the space. Theres lots of it.

In both versions the front seats are exceptionally comfortable. Quilted leather along with heating and ventilation keeps you feeling relaxed. For those cold winter mornings, the steering wheel is heated as well.

Rear seat leg room is generous, and the seats are better designed for two people. Both outer seats have isofix and top tether points.

Access is not bad, but the wheel arches do get in the way a touch.

But placing bub in the  baby seat is easy and the wide opening doors make that simple. There is a pull up sunshade for the rear windows to keep bub comfortable.

Being a five seat version, boot space is practical and the load height means that you aren’t struggling to place gear back there.

I almost forgot to mention the hands free tailgate opening. Just kick under the sensor if you have your hands full and the boot opens.

The opening height can be adjusted for low roof garages as well.

I managed to squeeze a drive in for some thoughts.

I’ve always been fan of the Outlander. It manages to strike a good balance between interior space, safety and comfort and price.

Both the models I drove come with a 2.5 litre, 4 cylinder petrol motor. This provides 135kW of power and 244Nm of torque. Driving all four wheels through an On Demand 4WD system and an 8 step CVT.

It’s definitely no powerhouse but has adequate performance for its purpose.

The latest styling also appeals to many people. It has the advantages of SUV practicality without the bulk that some have.

Inside both these top spec  models come well equipped.

The Outlander Exceed comes with

• heated and ventilated front seats,
• heated exterior mirrors that dip in reverse, and
• aluminium pedals and more.

The Exceed Tourer has upgraded Semi-aniline Leather seat Trim – quilted brown and a 12 Speaker Dynamic Sound System.

Both have comprehensive safety features as well as wireless smart phone connectivity.

One thing I appreciate is the large boot space being a five seat version and a full size alloy spare wheel for both.

Pricing for the Outlander Exceed is from $55,890 and the Exceed Tourer from $58,740, both plus the usual costs and that’s excellent value.
