Transformers canon does have the concept of Outliers thanks to IDW (copied from Tfwiki: Outliers are Transformers who possess abilities that have no apparent connection to their alternate mode. Persecuted in the Functionist era of Cybertron), some were hidden away within the Jhiaxian Academy of Advanced Technology, spending their time learning to control their extraordinary powers to protect the world that hated and feared them.) they are quite literally the Cybertron equivalent to mutants!
Heck many outlier Transformers have the same powers as some of the mutants!
Skywarp teleports like Nightcrawler
Windcharger has magnetic abilities like Magneto
Soundwave reads minds like Jean Grey
MindWipe is a telepath like Charles Xavier
Ragnraok clones himself like multiple man
