Mitsubishi RVR
Mitsubishi’s smallest and oldest crossover returns for 2023 with no significant changes. Base RVR models come with front-wheel drive and a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine producing 148 horsepower. Super All-Wheel Control (S-AWC) is available, though. The alternative is a 2.4-litre mill rated at 168 horsepower. In both cases, a continuously variable transmission helps improve fuel economy, which is not as good as most competitors. The RVR is built in Okayama, Japan.
