Model-year comparison
Market analysis
Asking prices for a used Mitsubishi Outlander AC compressor are unusually spread out: the top listing asks more than ten times what the cheapest does, so which unit you pick matters more than the median. Condition matters: grade-A units (lowest mileage, best condition) carry roughly a 63% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $163.
Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, gasoline, lists at a $163 median, while plug-in hybrid (PHEV) commands $348, a 113% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.
Model year matters too: 2016 units carry the lowest median at $99, while 2021 tops the table at $230. Parts from 2009–2019 are interchangeable, so if the 2016 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 11 compatible years.
Against comparable vehicles, the Mitsubishi Outlander sits 4% above the Ford F150 ($150), 21% below the Mercedes E Class ($198), and 38% below the Mercedes GLE Class ($250) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.
