The Mitsubishi Outlander & Outlander Sport Are Safe & Affordable

As a parent, I can tell you that when my teenager first learned to drive I was filled with a mixture of pride and panic. I was excited to watch them navigate through this new adventure and see them achieve the important rite of passage that comes with obtaining their official driver’s license. However, with that excitement comes the familiar feeling of worry and concern that we all have felt every time our child takes a big step in life. From their first steps, to learning to ride a bike, to their first day of school and all of the other firsts along the way. That is why, much to their dismay, we make sure to instill the safest driving habits when it comes to road safety even if they feel that it lessens the excitement a bit.

However, once that golden ticket of a driver’s license is in their hands, you will be faced with a new dilemma which is the realization that you now have another driver in the house that is going to want to borrow the car, a lot. And with that realization comes the realization that they are going to need a car of their own if you want to avoid the inevitable fights that go along with trying to coordinate more schedules than there are vehicles. That will, of course, lead you to be looking for a top-quality used vehicle that will be perfect for their first car. Once, again our years of experience in car buying will come into play since our kids will be more concerned with the style and features, we will be focusing on the substance and the truly important factors, like safety.
 
Luckily for you, DELLA Mitsubishi can help to make you both happy since you will find both the Mitsubishi Outlander and Outlander Sport in our used vehicle inventory. Both of these vehicles are fun and stylish options that your teen will love, but the IIHS has rated them each amongst the safest and most affordable used vehicles for teens which we are sure will make you happy.
 
“Mitsubishi Motors prides itself on consistently delivering top safety features at an affordable price to ensure our customers receive the best possible value,” said Don Swearingen, executive vice president and chief operating officer, MMNA. “As top sellers and leaders in reliability for the brand, the Outlander and Outlander Sport offer sound reassurance for parents searching for a car for their teen that is both safety conscious and engineered with precision.”
 
In order to earn this ranking both vehicle needed to be offered with a starting price of under $20,000 and earn at least a “good” rating in each of the IIHS crash tests. This ranking applies to 2014 or newer Outlander vehicles and 2011 or newer Outlander Sport vehicles, so be sure to stop by today with your teen and check out both of these options!
