In a market segment where most competitors offer 5 seats, Outlander offers you 7 seats! Well, you may argue that those third row seats are useless, but when you need to carry those extra passengers, it's still a good thing to have them in case of an emergency. Beyond that, the dashboard layout in Outlander is practical, but illuminating. It just doesn't have that feel-good factor. The quality of the material is nothing to complain about though. If you want to drive long distances, please get diesel like me! "
