Doesn't look too bad, but the engine seems a little bit underpowered especially for a car that size.

It's nice for some drivers to get a high-riding car without an SUV's cumbersome nature and brutishness. It reminds me of the Pajero iO.

Oh, I actually like the look of that. Not saying I'd buy one, my CJ is perfect, but I do like it.

Hey Blakey, I think you're think of this:
It's the Racing Lancer!

Hmm, the Outlander isn't that much bigger than the Lancer.. I don't see this car that much smaller than the Outlander to be honest - unless its coming in FWD only which means more boot and rear space.
When you park the lancer beside the outlander its nearly as long and the wheelbase is almost identical! Not to mention the engine sounds the same when you drive it LOL! Anywho its mainly the width which is different.

Maybe it could be targeted more so at soccer mums and mid sized familys?

i hope they do because i really like the idea of the Rav4 when they first came out, being a small compact "SUV" but the new Rav4 is bloody huge. they need to make a SMALL SUV. IMO
