The other notable characteristics of the SUV's exterior are, new front fenders, redesigned rear bumper, new 18-inch alloy wheels and fresh LED tail lights.

There are also some mechanical changes in the updated Outlander, including an optimized chassis, a retuned suspension suspension system, a new electric power steering system, thicker rear door glasses, improved weather stripping, a noise-isolating windshield and an added sound deadening material for improved cabin quietness.
