Quakertown Mitsubishi - How AWC Makes the 2025 Outlander Sport a Confident Winter Companion around Bethlehem, PA
If winter driving has you rethinking what a compact SUV can do, Mitsubishi delivers a standout answer with All-Wheel Control (AWC). This intelligent, always-on traction strategy is standard across the Outlander Sport lineup and tuned to help balance power delivery and grip when the pavement is dry, damp, snowy, or simply unpredictable. Around Bethlehem, PA, where conditions can swing from cold rain to slush in a single afternoon, that kind of composure matters. AWC works in concert with the Outlander Sport’s MacPherson strut front and multi-link rear suspensions to maintain steady tracking and reassuring stability, so your hands stay relaxed on the wheel while the vehicle keeps its balance. Pair that with LED Low and High Beam Headlights and available LED Fog Lights, and you have an all-weather toolkit sized perfectly for daily life.
AWC’s value becomes even more apparent when the route includes hills or uneven surfaces. Hill Start Assist (HSA) helps you pull away without rollback, while Active Stability Control (ASC) and Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) and Brake Assist support clean, measured stops and confident cornering. Inside, available heated front seats, automatic climate control, and the 8.0-inch Smartphone-Link Display Audio (SDA) system with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto keep the cabin warm, connected, and distraction-minimized. Add available Blind Spot Warning (BSW) with Lane Change Assist (LCA) and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA), and you have the wide-angle awareness that’s especially helpful in snow-banked parking lots. Quakertown Mitsubishi highlights these details because they add up to a more relaxed, capable drive that you feel every mile, not just on the spec sheet.
