The Mitsubishi Endeavor, is it a car or an SUV? Whatever it is, can you give me some pointers before I go to my Mitsubishi dealer here in Texas?

The Mitsubishi Endeavor is a car or SUV…make that crossover worth testing out, Morgan. I’m sure that the looks and power or overall performance will satisfy your needs in Texas.

You can like the Endeavor by looking at it in several angles. In terms of power and utility, the two trims of the Endeavor, the LS and SE, are both powered by a 3.8 Liter V6 that generates about 225 horsepower and about 265 lb-ft of torque. With this kind of muscle, you can haul some more gear and people on weekend out of town trips. There are options to go either front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive depending on what you’d like to come with your Endeavor. My choice is to go with the all-wheel drive and my reason follows. In terms of handling, since the Endeavor is a crossover, it is a given that it can handle like a car. Mitsubishi made sure of that by providing stability control system to its all-wheel drive models. Once we talk of safety, the Endeavor comes equipped with Anti-lock brakes with electronic brakeforce distribution, front airbags and front and rear curtain airbags. It even has a 5-star rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
