It's Time to Getaway, Thanks to Mitsubishi and Big 4 Holiday Parks

CLOVELLY PARK, AUSTRALIA – June 15, 2009: Mitsubishi Motors Australia Limited (MMAL) has announced the winner of an Outlander compact four-wheel drive in the "Mitsubishi Outlander and Big 4 Holiday Parks" competition, promoted widely by Channel 9's popular Getaway travel program. The lucky winner, Mr Ernest Kuljis from Meadow Springs WA, was delighted to accept the prize of a complete holiday package, including a brand-new Mitsubishi Outlander XLS and a $5,000 Big 4 Holiday Park voucher.

Mr Kuljis now has a choice of over 180 holiday parks to visit all around Australia, and the brand new wheels to take him there.

“My head is still spinning. I have in-laws in town soon, so the opportunity to show them Australia as it should be – the four-wheel drive way is awesome!,” said Mr Kuljis.

Mr Kuljis’ new Outlander, Mitsubishi’s compact SUV, has been designed to complement the most active of lifestyles, and will take Ernest and his family almost anywhere they want to go around Australia.

The Outlander XLS features a sporty 2.4L four-cylinder engine, delivering maximum power and efficiency.

Big on innovation, style, versatility and safety, the Outlander is packed with sophisticated technology, boasting impressive features across the range. Mitsubishi’s Active Stability Control with Traction Control (ASTC) system comes as standard, with Mitsubishi’s All Wheel Control (AWC), incorporating All Terrain Technology and the Active Select 4WD system.

This means, Mr Kuljis can switch from 2WD to AWD on the run with the simple turn of a dial. With the six-step automatic continuously variable transmission, the Outlander is surprisingly fuel efficient, averaging 10.9 litres per 100 kilometres.

“The specification of the vehicle is great, and I’m looking forward to ‘loving that car’ when it arrives,” said Mr Kuljis.

This Outlander XLS is covered by Mitsubishi’s 10 year / 160,000 km non-transferrable drive-train warranty or 5 year / 130,000 km and 5 year roadside assist as standard.

Combining the functionality of a 4WD, the spirit of a sports car, the fuel efficiency of a smaller car, and the versatility of a wagon, the Outlander is available from over 200 Mitsubishi dealerships across Australia.
