Mitsubishi Outlander

The entry-level seven-seater Mitsubishi Outlander LS starts from $41,240 before on-road costs.

Mitsubishi Australia claims the Outlander is a "5+2" seater, meaning the third row of seats aren't full-size seats. To get a better understanding of the size, you can check out Drive's latest Outlander review here.

The Outlander seven-seater has two ISOFIX-equipped seats in the second row and three top-tether points. The third row doesn't have any anchor points.

The Mitsubishi Outlander LS "5+2" seater has 478L of boot space with the third row folded and 163L when the third row is upright.
