Mitsubishi Raider 2009 review

All Raiders are equipped with a 3.7-liter V6 engine capable of 210 horsepower. A six-speed manual transmission is standard and a four-speed automatic is optional. Rear-wheel drive is standard, while four-wheel drive is optional.

The Raider's cabin is spacious. The Double Cab has a respectable amount of room for four adults. The rear seats flip up and reveal built-in storage trays. The extended cab doesn't have as much interior space, however, and its rear seats are quite cramped. In road tests, we found the Mitsubishi Raider to be stable and steady on all roads. The two major downsides are under the hood and in the safety department: The V6 is downright slow, and neither side curtain airbags nor four-wheel antilock brakes are available. Many competitors offer safer and more capable pickups.

MSRP $24,000
