Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Mitsubishi Outlander than in the Volkswagen ID.4. The Volkswagen ID.4 offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the Mitsubishi Outlander, offering the driver and front passenger a bit more room and comfort.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Clearly, the Mitsubishi Outlander is a better financial choice over the Volkswagen ID.4, when considering MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Mitsubishi Outlander is much wider than the Volkswagen ID.4, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Mitsubishi Outlander, which is slightly longer than the Volkswagen ID.4.

Handling
The Mitsubishi Outlander has the same turning radius as the Volkswagen ID.4, so they both maneuver the same in and out of tight spots.

Performance
In terms of towing capacity, the Volkswagen ID.4 is clearly the choice over the Mitsubishi Outlander for pulling heavy loads. When it comes to horsepower, the Mitsubishi Outlander has a lot less horsepower than the Volkswagen ID.4.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Mitsubishi Outlander does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Volkswagen ID.4.

Utility
The Mitsubishi Outlander offers greater seating capacity than the Volkswagen ID.4, making it a better choice for those who find themselves chauffeuring others around. You'll be able to fit about the same amount of groceries in the Mitsubishi Outlander as you will in the Volkswagen ID.4.
