All Outlander models come standard with front-wheel drive, Active Stability and Traction Control (ASTC), Anti-lock Braking system (ABS) and Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) to improve steering while braking.
The entry-level ES model comes with standard 16-inch wheels, front airbags, seat-mounted side-impact airbags, side curtain airbags, anti-lock breaks, a tire pressure monitor, ASC, aluminum roof and a flap-fold tailgate. The upscale XLS and GT models come with more standard and available equipment. The top-level GT comes standard with Xenon HID headlamps, 710-watt Rockford Fosgate stereo, and the power glass sunroof. In all four trim levels the second row seat features independently reclining 60/40 split fold-and-tumble seat backs. On XLS models, the standard third row seat folds flat into the floor.
