Mitsubishi gives the Outlander Sport a last minute makeover for 2016.

 

The move updates the Outlander Sport to more closely resemble its big brother the Mitsubishi Outlander. Under the new do, the Outlander Sport's hardware carries over. On the inside, there is a new steering wheel and an updated infotainment 6.1 inch screen.

 

No word on an official on-sale date, but we have to assume it will be soon as it is a 2016 model year.
