Comparison Review

Comfort
The Honda HR-V offers a bit more room for passengers in the back seat than the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between front seat comfort in the Honda HR-V and the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Honda HR-V as you will with the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Honda HR-V is somewhat more expensive than the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport.

Dimensions
The Honda HR-V is a little wider than the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport, so getting in and out of the car in a crowded parking lot may be a little more of a squeeze. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Honda HR-V, which is slightly longer than the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport.

Handling
The Honda HR-V has a larger turning radius than the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
The Honda HR-V has a little more horsepower than the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport.

Powertrain
With its lower torque engine, the Honda HR-V doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Honda HR-V and the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport. The Honda HR-V has a roomier cargo area for putting your bags or other items than the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport.
