Mitsubishi Debuts Outlander Diamond Trail Edition at SEMA

Overview

• Mitsubishi revealed the Outlander Diamond Trail Edition at the 2026 SEMA Show in Las Vegas, displaying three examples that range from near‑stock to heavily modified overlander builds.
• The edition adds revised front and rear bumpers that raise approach and departure angles, 18‑inch black alloy wheels with Nexen Roadian ATX all‑terrain tires, taller roof rails, water‑repellent seat fabric and a new Trail Green Metallic paint option.
• The Outlander’s Super All‑Wheel Control (S‑AWC) receives a new Rock drive mode that increases low‑speed traction by applying brake pressure earlier to control wheel slip on rough terrain.
• Mitsubishi plans to sell the Diamond Trail as a 2028 model in the U.S., with sales expected in 2027 and a confirmed Canadian launch in the first half of 2027, while Australia says the model is currently intended only for the U.S. market.
• Pricing and full specs are not yet official; industry watchers estimate U.S. price near $42,000, and analysts say the special edition is meant to boost per‑vehicle revenue, dealer accessory sales and Mitsubishi’s off‑road credibility while targeting light overlanding rather than extreme trail use.
