Mitsubishi Outlander is Japan's Top-Selling SUV

Take a guess: Which Sport Utility Vehicle is the best-selling SUV in Japan?

1. Toyota RAV4
2. Hyundai Santa Fe
3. Cadillac Escalade
4. Mitsubishi Outlander

If you guessed #4 - Mitsubishi Outlander, you must have read the headline and looked at the picture with this blog, because you never could have guessed that.

According to an article on the World Car Fans website, "Since its home market launch in October 2005, the all-new Mitsubishi Outlander has amassed more sales than any other SUV in Japan, placing not only ahead of its own sales targets but also well ahead of the competition."
