The good: The 2011 Mitsubishi Outlander GT's S-AWC system does a fantastic job of keeping the crossover's handling in line, even in wet conditions. If you like bass-heavy music, the 710-watt Rockford Fosgate premium audio rig will not disappoint. The Mitsubishi Fuse feature adds voice command to iPod music selection and hands-free calling.

The bad: The engine and transmission combo feels a bit underpowered and lacks sportiness. The interface of the Mitsubishi navigation system is haphazardly organized and takes effort to learn.

The bottom line: While likely the best-handling crossover in its class, with cabin tech that doesn't disappoint, the 2011 Mitsubishi Outlander GT has much room for improvement--particularly in the engine bay.

Most brands have a halo car: a no-holds-barred ubercar that it can later claim shares technology with the lesser models in the lineup. For Mitsubishi, that car is the Lancer Evolution X, a sport sedan often cited as one of the best-handling cars on the road and as giving the best performance for its price. The Evolution X's claim to fame is its S-AWC all-wheel-drive system. To review the Mitsubishi Outlander GT S-AWC, we need to keep the Evo in mind.

Sharp-eyed readers will see that the Outlander shares the S-AWC nomenclature with its upscale stablemate. And, yes, the larger crossover vehicle shares the Evo's all-wheel-drive technology and some of its handling prowess. However, there's one key difference between the Outlander's Super All-Wheel Control (S-AWC) system and the Evolution X's that creates a critical difference in their driving dynamics.
